'''Expo 1964''' was an unofficial [[World Expo]] held in the [[New York City]] borough of [[Queens]]. Unlike other World Expos, it ran for two years.
{{Dia|Bloomberg|I must say, even though this Expo was unofficial, it was still one of my all-time favorite moments in [[New York City]]'s history.}}

At the time, '''Shea Stadium''' was an ultra-modern sporting venue. The longtime home of the rhyming [[New York Mets]] and [[New York Jets]], it seated 55,000 for [[baseball]] and 60,000 for [[American football]]. Unfortunately, in 2008, it was replaced by Citi Field. By that time, the Jets have been playing in [[New Jersey]] for a while.
