Value & Joy is relative. 2)"all the same resale value wise. The mezzanine is just too far away from the field to charge a premium price." That's your first mistake right there. You'll never make your $ back and shouldn't expect to in a stadium w/80K seating capacity. The "LIVE viewing experience" will always be trumped when compared to watching it at home on a flatscreen 4K w/all your home amenities. The REAL value of Season Tickets is intrinsic. I actually enjoy Tailgating and being able to/legally Yell my Lungs Out every game more than (up until this year, and ESPECIALLY compared to the '11,'12,'13,&'14 seasons) the actual PLAY & PRODUCT that was on the field. I got to, and still do when I attend all 10 games, realize my childhood dream. 3)"As far as expensing them, that's cool I guess. Helps u justify anyway. Still have to pay for them though." Like everything in life, there is a price that has to be paid. 4)"You u by any chance SARS 2nd handle . . . and u2 sound the same." Fừck You for that statement. I know who I am and don't need to belittle others to validate myself. I can't speak for him or the likelihood most would agree with what I just stated in the previous sentence. Fair points. I love going Tailgating, and yelling my lungs out also. I have been doing all those things for many years. But u don't need to pay a inflated price, bs psl, or pay full price for pre-season to do those things. For the 171/ per ticket I pay, I'd rather go to 5 games rather than 8 and sit in a good seat, and skip the preseason costs. The things u stated u love about going can be had without a season ticket. So where is the real value of having season tix for a team that doesn't sell out? It does really bug me that when I sell for my sons football game I loose $ I apologize for the sar comment. And I'm glad u enjoy your seats. Enjoy the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you type English perhaps? The Jets easily could have charged us all $50 to $75 more per seat per game simply based on the fact that we moved from the old Giants Stadium dump to a brand new facility. Instead, they didn't raise tickets one penny. That matters, matters a lot. In effect, all the PSL noise was about nothing, not only was it chump change for 14,000 New Yorkers but it was almost completely mitigated by a price freeze for 7 years. I've been worried about the first increase, thought it might happen now as we bounced back to a 10 win club. And it's $5. LOL. A MetLife pretzel costs more.

And I'm glad u enjoy your seats. Enjoy the season. That's the ULTIMATE choice you have to make every year upon renewal (I know I've debated it at times) and the BEAUTY of STUBHUB nowadays to CherryPick the games WORTH seeing in person. The Price is accordingly at a premium in that SAME regard when you do StubHub. The REAL VALUE of being a STH is intrinsic - "determined through fundamental analysis without reference to its market value." You can't look at it through a $ point of view, you'll always lose out that way. The REAL VALUE for me is that the 6 year old kid from Marble Hill in the Bronx still inside of me gets to see the NewYorkJets LIVE IN PERSON instead of a fuzzy rabbit ears antenna in a household full of Giants fans. Enjoy the season PSL brother, and stop by for a beer & a J-E-T-S cheer on me. Enjoy the season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timing makes sense if you ask me but the problem is, the ticket prices are pretty expensive as it is so they should first find a good starting point before talking price increase.

Like a club, the cost of drinks were relatively the same, but the COVER PRICE to GET THROUGH the DOOR went up. Sucks, but as @Lot K Tailgaters accurately stated, free country in how one chooses to dispense their capital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indy fans travel well and the 1 hour flight isn't too much of an obstacle for them. I recall a fair number of them showing up for the Preseason game alone. should be the Indianapolis Cults.

I don't know how old you are, but from 1988 to 2001 I could not get season tickets to the Jets, was on a God forsaken waiting list, was at the mercy of scalpers and brokers, spent an average of one Sunday a year wandering around a parking lot in New Jersey looking for a ticket and driving home empty handed, listening to the first half on a scratchy radio. We should all be happy. You and I have seats we love at prices we think are reasonable. Tens of thousands of Jets fans paid a high price for the freedoms you enjoy now. No need to be nasty.

GenoandtheJets Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I look at this as a greedy gesture by the ownership of the New York Jets and whoever else is in charge. The team has not been to the playoffs since 2010. I get it that they were 10-6 but they still didn't make the playoffs. I also get it that the NFL is a business that always wants to make money. I sincerely hope that they are relevant next season as well because next years schedule is tougher. If last seasons success was a mirage then it will be "Same Old Jets" all over again. Whatever happens happens I have seen this over and over again. I expect playoffs but if it doesn't happen again for them then I will wonder what the heck else needs to go right.
