Making one stadium home for both the New York Giants and the New York Jets requires an intricate changeover - from endzone logos, lighting, tee-shirts, banners, artwork - sometimes in just 12 hours. See the tricks used, including how the crew shuffles those 2,000-pound endzone trays. With 'Off Duty' Host Wendy Bounds.

    “Is the neutral seat color inentional” No they change the 82,500 seats from blue to green seats.
  • Imagine in another universe, the Giants were the NFC champions, and the Jets were the AFC champions with the same records and were facing off in the superbowl and that year it was hosted at MetLife Stadium.

    At least they don't have to worry about doing this in January.

    You know it's an old video when someone is "Tebowing"
  • "I'm always finishing before you" that man had an easy route to an amazing joke
  • @Slownut
    6:25 this is supposed to be the giants/jets stadium... not the vikings
  • @buzzcut13
    So who get's home field advantage when they play?
  • @BroadswordMedia
    This was really cool to see. At times I've sometimes wondered how hard it is to transition from one team to another in the same stadium from week to week.
  • @76carmel
    People don't realize how long things like this take. Nice work, guys at the crew.
  • @cortem762
    The flippable racks in the Pro shop are a really cool idea. I always thought they just had 2 different pro shops.
  • @Hallucination
    Hard to imagine when they play each other how it goes down. If it's a Giants home game the stadium is set up in Giants colours and signage yet the Jets play there every week and their fans will still be there and vice versa. Kinda funny really to show up at your own stadium and see it decked out in another teams colours.
  • What’s crazy is they go from a Jets home game on Sunday afternoon to a giants home game Monday night.
  • From Eli Manning & Mark Sanchez to Daniel Jones & Zach Wilson, times have changed.

    I went to the giants preseason game once and went to the shop and I saw jets merchandise behind the giants merchandise lol 😂😂😂😂
