After attending an interfaith service at Newark's New Hope Baptist Church, Christie headed to the storm-ravaged town of Moonachie, which was inundated by floodwaters from the Hackensack River.
He was joined by New York Jets owner Woody Johnson and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell,Fjallraven Kanken Italia, who said the league had established a strong partnership with the Christie administration. The NFL and the two teams that play at MetLife Stadium, just a few miles from Moonachie, have donated to Sandy relief efforts in the run-up to the upcoming Super Bowl at the stadium, including for the rebuilding of storm-damaged recreation and youth athletic facilities.
