The recent celebrations of the McMahon Stadium's 50th anniversary had me reflecting. Reflecting on the great environment and fan experience that has evolved at the stadium. From the ease of access, ample parking, tailgating and the park-like setting of McMahon Stadium, we have it great!

Very impressive and the biggest reason why the team is tied for top spot
