This past weekend, our ONNJ crew made the short journey across the Hudson to join the excitement at Fanatics Fest NYC. The Javits Center was buzzing with energy as some of New Jersey’s most recognizable personalities took to the 40/40 Club red carpet, including Dr. Mehmet Oz, Ken Goldin of Goldin Collectables in Runnemede, and David Edelman of Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, owners of the Philadelphia 76ers and New Jersey Devils. Pequannock-born Derek Jeter thrilled the crowd with his presence, while New York Giants stars reflected on their time playing in East Rutherford. Fanatics Fest NYC Founder Michael Rubin shared his excitement over this first-of-its-kind event, and Florham Park-based Ron Berkowitz offered insights on overseeing the event’s public relations through his company, Berk Communications. ONNJ’s Lisa Marie Falbo was on the ground, capturing all the action and exclusive moments with the stars.
