MetLife Stadium Looked So Empty, You’d Think It Was Closed for Renovation (Video)

The New York Jets hosted the Cleveland Browns on Sunday for their Week 10 matchup, but if you saw MetLife Stadium, you might’ve thought it was an off day. The crowd was so small, you could probably hear a pin drop—or maybe just the sound of disappointed sighs echoing through the stands.

Most of the fans who did show up weren’t there to cheer for the Jets but to honor the late Nick Mangold. Because, let’s be honest—after trading away Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams, the Jets have officially waved the white flag on the 2025 season.

Photos and videos from the game went viral, and the sight was almost comical. Thousands of empty green seats told the story better than any scoreboard ever could. As one fan hilariously put it:

Another fan chimed in with a perfect pop culture reference:

Meanwhile, some frustrated Jets supporters made their feelings loud and clear—by hiding their faces.

Jets fans currently have bags over their heads that read:

To be fair, a few loyal fans still showed up despite the embarrassment. They deserve a standing ovation (if there were enough people to give one).

Gotta give props to the devoted #Jets fans who showed up today. Pretty empty at MetLife even in the 1st quarter. pic.twitter.com/dcQXBXJIF8

In the end, the empty seats became the real highlight of the day. Even rival fans were joking that MetLife looked less like a football stadium and more like a meditation retreat.
