My dad for the second time in 15 years finished the Talmud (Shas) under the Daf Yomi schedule. To celebrate, like he did 7.5 years ago, he took a bunch of us to the massive Siyum HaShas at MetLife Stadium last night (although 7.5 years ago it was in Nets Stadium and indoors, this time in Giants/Jets new stadium).

There were about 92,000 Jews all in one place. It was pretty wild.

Here are a few pictures:

At Least ~500 people using our iPhone Siddur there:

FYI, might be a good time to download the Artscroll Shas to kick off the new Daf Yomi?
