The New York Jets left Shea Stadium in 1983 and the stadium was demolished in 2009.
from 1964 to 1983
That was 1984. The Jets played at Shea Stadium from 1964-1983 and the Polo Grounds from 1960-1963.
The New York Giants played their 1975 season at Shea while Giants Stadium was being built. The Giants were 5-9 that year (2-5 at Shea). Their coach was Bill Arnsparger and their quarterback was Craig Morton. That year, Shea served as the home field for four teams: the Mets, Yankees, Jets and Giants.* Polo Grounds (1925-1955) * Yankee Stadium (1956-1973) * Yale Bowl (1973-1974) * Shea Stadium (1975) * Giants Stadium (1976-present)
When the club, then the NY Titans, was purchased in 1963, co-owner David "Sonny" Werblin wanted to personify the Jet age, so he renamed the team the Jets. The story that it was because they played at Shea Stadium misses that the 1963 Jets played at the Polo Grounds and did not play at Shea until 1964, their fifth year of existence and second as the Jets.
