New York Jets superfan Castanio-Gervasi finally got the chance she had been waiting for.
The New York Post reported that the Jets had decided not to let her participate in $100K field-goal kicking contest. It was supposed to be at halftime of Sunday’s game against the Patriots. They came to that conclusion due to a technicality.
Castanio-Gervasi had said the team was aware she’d previously played college soccer at the Division I level. The Jets disqualified her because she’s a high-school soccer coach. She told the New York Post that the decision crushed her and her family. “This is life-changing money for me,” she said. “I was confident I could have made it.”
She further added that she attends Jets games to honor her late father, Frank. He was also a lifelong fan. The decision by the New York Jets made them look terrible.
Long Island superfan Castanio-Gervasi was invited, disinvited, and then re-invited to attempt a halftime field goal. MetLife Stadium went crazy when she came out on the field. Everybody was behind her after hearing about her story.
This story did not have a happy ending.
After plenty of controversy surrounding her eligibility, the fan did not take advantage of the opportunity like many thought she would. Ashley Castanio-Gervasi missed her field-goal attempt from 30 yards out during halftime of the contest.

Even if Castanio-Gervasi had made the kick, her job wouldn’t have been done. She would’ve had to also connect with a 40-yard attempt to earn the $100,000.
