On July 13, 1972 he was named president of the NYRA, succeeding Frank M. Basil.[2] He resigned as president on April 26, 1974, stating that the job was "no longer fun".[3] He later added that he was frustrated with the state bureaucracy, which he believed had "no long term solutions to racing's problems".[5] New Jersey Sports and Exposition AuthorityOn May 21, 1974, Krumpe was named CEO of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority. The NJSEA oversaw the construction of the Meadowlands Sports Complex, which was to consist of a new football stadium for the New York Giants and a horse racing track. NJSEA Chairman Sonny Werblin called Krumpe "the top sports administrator in the United States, next to Pete Rozelle" and called Krumpe's hiring "my happiest announcement since the signing of Joe Namath".[4] Madison Square GardenOn June 29, 1978, Krumpe resigned from the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority to become executive vice president of the Madison Square Garden Corporation.
