I went a few years back, glad to say I did it, but won't ever do it again!

The line started the day before, we got in line around 8pm. The line was for the chance to get tickets.

NYC Police have NO crowd control skills. NOPD has everyone beat on this. Once the 'doors' opened the next morning to get a lottery ticket for seats, the line rushed the doors, people jumping in line from the street. Fights were breaking out.

We waiting in line for about 14 hrs and sat in the top balcony...just like sitting in the terrace in the Dome. The stage was VERY far away.

It was mostly Jets fans, mix in some Giants and Steelers.

It was the old format, Sat & Sun, but we only stayed for the first round. Day Two, Rds 4-7, you could just walk in...no line, no tickets. If you just want to say you were there, don't go to the 1st or 2nd rounds, go to rounds 3+

It's checked off my bucket list, and I won't go again.

I've been up there for the draft but not about to wait in line to get in. There are several local bars that throw parties for certain teams fans which is a lot of fun.
