9/11 See other 9/11 Articles Title: Super Bowl fans trapped for hours at MetLife stadium, 9/11 protester crashes media room Overwhelmed by more than 27,000 passengers — a new record — the NJ Transit kept fans waiting hours after the game for shuttle trains from the stadium. Meanwhile, a security breach allowed an intruder to grab MVP Malcolm Smith's microphone to scream about a 9/11 conspiracy theory. Football fans made their way Sunday through a bottleneck of riders at the Secaucus Junction, N.J., station to trains that took them to MetLife Stadium and the Super Bowl. One of the biggest blowouts in Super Bowl history was capped by one of the biggest blunders in regional transit history. Overwhelmed by a record number of riders, NJ Transit kept fans waiting after the game for hours for shuttle trains from MetLife Stadium. Jubilation over the Seattle Seahawks’ 43-8 stomping of the Denver Broncos quickly deteriorated into transportation chaos. “Worst train system ever,” fumed Steve Snorsky, 45, of Seattle, whose joy was drained by enormous lines of people waiting for shuttle trains to Secaucus Junction.

Waiting two hours just to get on a train is ridiculous.” It was so bad, the stadium public address announcer pleaded with fans at the end of Super Bowl XLVIII to stay in the stadium because of congestion. “We completely lost control,” a stadium security guard told the Daily News, explaining that NJ Transit gravely underestimated the number of riders to and from the game.

While transportation officials were trying to get a grip on the commuter chaos, officials inside the stadium had to deal with a security breach. An intruder bolted up to the stage and grabbed the microphone while the game’s MVP Malcolm Smith of the Seahawks was conducting a postgame press conference in a media room. “Investigate 9/11!” the unidentified man yelled. “9/11 was perpetrated by people in our government!” The man, wearing a plaid jacket, was hustled out of the room by security. It was not immediately clear how he made it past unprecedented security measures that included snipers posted throughout the stadium. Poster Comment: The 9/11 protester got a mention on Red Eye and C2C radio networks.

I'm sure Red Eye had nothing good to say about it. I had to stop watching Ghe Five because they denigrated 9/11 people. I also stopped listening to a popular radio station because the djs lied about what 9/11 believe then denigrated them for it.
Glenn Beck did a job on the troofer this morning.
