As a stunt to attract more riders, the New Jersey Transit Authority is giving away tickets to see Bon Jovi live at the New Meadowlands Stadium, which is accessible by transit, of course.
New Jersey residents are invited to ride transit to summer concerts, and possibly win tickets to see New Jersey poster boy Bon Jovi in the process.
Carmine deMarco writes, "One grand prize winner will receive ten tickets to see Bon Jovi perform live at New Meadowlands Stadium on Saturday, May 29, as well as complimentary rail transportation to the show from any NJ TRANSIT rail station."
