Famed New York Jets fan Fireman Ed claimed this week that the Jets have been suppressing his presence at games this season.
In an Instagram video posted Wednesday, Ed Anzalone said he had received several messages about being featured less than usual on the big screens at MetLife Stadium, prompting him to say, "Something's going on in the Jets' production team."
The 65-year-old Anzalone has been a fixture at Jets games since the 1980s, typically wearing a white firefighter helmet and leading the iconic "J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets," chant.
As part of his Instagram post, Fireman Ed said that during the Jets' past two home games against the Denver Broncos and Buffalo Bills, he and a couple of other well-known fans were not shown on the screen to lead chants after touchdowns nor to pump up the crowd while the Jets were on defense as they usually are.
