Jets owner Woody Johnson made an appearance in the latest episode of HBO’s Hard Knocks, which aired Tuesday night, and made waves for his bejeweled chain that he unveiled to the team.
In a team meeting, Johnson stood at the front of the assembly and unzipped his jacket to reveal a studded “Woody and the Jets” chain. Johnson’s chain gave an obvious ode to Elton John’s 1973 hit “Bennie and the Jets.”
The Jets players began hollering and clapping when Johnson revealed his new piece of jewelry.
