Members of the Jets football team held what was billed as the first annual Jets Fest at Chelsea Park last weekend. There were skills games for kids and a chance to meet the players. Some local residents also showed up to voice their opposition to the city’s plan to build a stadium for the Jets and the Olympics over the West Side Rail Yards. Above, Jesse Scalesi, 5, tossed the pigskin as Brooks Bollinger of the Jets looked on.
Adam Honigman, a Community Board 4 member from Hell’s Kitchen, is against the stadium.
