The sign atop MetLife Stadium read "New York New Jersey Stadium" on Friday, reflecting the temporary name of the venue during the World Cup.
The more prominent of two signs will soon read "New Jersey New York Stadium" according to Gov. Mikie Sherrill.
“I will always put New Jersey first, and I wanted to make sure the stadium hosting eight World Cup matches in our state did the same," Gov. Sherrill told News 12. "We are thrilled to welcome soccer fans from around the world this summer, and this recognition helps ensure the experience is just as exciting and memorable for New Jerseyans as it is for our visitors.”
