The shopping mall located next to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey was evacuated due to a bomb threat – just hours before the Jets play the Miami Dolphins in the NFL’s first-ever Black Friday game.

In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy wrote that law enforcement were investigating a threat and shoppers should evacuate ‘out of an abundance of caution.’

The American Dream Mall is a huge shopping and entertainment complex in East Rutherford. 

It would have been extremely busy with shoppers, given the Black Friday sales after Thanskgiving.

The Jets are due to kick off against the Dolphins at 3pm EST in the NFL’s first-ever Black Friday game.
