Driving to Philly from say, Belmar, is easier than driving
or taking the train to NYC. From Belmar I can be sitting in traffic on Broad St. in 1:20, waiting to get into one of the parking lots. It'll take you about 2 hours on the train to get to Penn Station from Belmar then another 40 minutes to get up to Yankee Stadium or out to Shea errr, uhh Citifield or whatever they're calling it. Even if you take LIRR out to Willets Point it's still another 20 minutes (assuming you don't have to wait for the train). It usually takes longer to drive.
A lot of people do it - i'm just saying that my family has always thought it was pretty dumb. A lot of those Mets fans know it's dumb, that's why you see so many of them at Citizen's Bank. The only sensible way to get up to the NYC stadiums from that area is to drive to Atlantic Highlands and take the ferry.

The conference for schools in Cape May and Atlantic Counties is called the Cape Atlantic, but I was just saying that the Atlantic City Press covers both the Cape Atlantic and the Shore Conferences.

gotcha. speaking of newspapers . . . I wonder where those distributions overlap, if at all - Courier-Post, Asbury Park Press, Press of AC.
