Ridgewood NJ, New Jersey Governor Christopher Christie attended a political fundraiser in Ridgewood on Tuesday October 11th and flew into the Village on a NJ State Police helicopter. Members of Ridgewood’s police, fire, and Emergency Services departments were on standby at the Benjamin Franklin Middle School for the early evening helicopter landing. The helicopter landed without incident; a two (2) vehicle motorcade (NJ State Police provided) subsequently transported the Governor and his party from the school to the $5,000 per attendee fundraising event, which was held at the Park West Tavern on Oak Street.

  1. great video.. perfect landing by the helicopter pilot. I guess Christie was too lazy to walk outside the fence so they had to bring the cars onto the track.

  2. The party was hosted by John Saraceno and John Johansen. I guess we should send the bill to them for the servics. Village council are you listening?!

  3. Guess they found parking ok at Park West?

  4. Who is John Johansen?

  5. Was taylor ham served?

  6. Who cares?

  7. A waste of tax payer money.

  8. I understand the Gov took $5k per plate literally and ate that much in steak.

  9. 10:07, post of the year! Thanks for the laugh.

  10. Helicopters are loud and smelly. I get motion sick. For that reason, I could never be governor. Therefore, I have decided not to run.

  11. Seriously, who is stuck paying for the Ridgewood employees needed on both landing and takeoff? Shouldn’t that come out of the funds donated? Or do we as Ridgewood residents get to financially contribute to the funds raised whether we want to or not? And, on a separate note, who pays for Valley Hospital’s patients who are helicoptered to Vets Field? We have to have stand-by services for them as well.

  12. That fat guy should ride a bike.

  13. The hatred and vitriol in this blog from the liberals is disheartening.
    I always though liberals were supposed to be accepting… guess I was wrong.
