Matt39 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Very rarely does anyone check your ticket when you're entering sections. I upgraded nicely on Sunday. Unlike Yankee Stadium where they harass you basically each time you enter and leave. Mezz level corner endzone are great seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some guys do, but its pretty easy to just walk by. I sat in the lower section behind the endzone for the first drive and no one bothered me there either.

I doubt it. Considering the high prices- it seems like the Jets have at least realized that if the Stadium has a bunch of empty seats, might as well let people sit there.

There is no rule against moving seats? Why do they even bother numbering the tickets... I doubt it. Considering the high prices- it seems like the Jets have at least realized that if the Stadium has a bunch of empty seats, might as well let people sit there. Where I sit they escort people out of sections if they do not belong. They do not want to piss off those who did pay by letting someone squat for less.

A stadium rule still does not equate to something that is against the law. Moving seats is frowned upon, much like counting cards or masterbating on an airplane. Thanks a lot Bin Laden.

Klecko73isGod Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Its really easy to move up if you do it right. It's basically a two-step process. 1. Have your hands filled with food, beer, whatever. If you can't reach into your pocket for a ticket, the usher is that much less likely to ask for it. 2. Act like you're supposed to be there. If the usher sees a guy with his hands full who acts like he belongs there, he's probably not going to ask for a ticket, especially if there are others trying to get to seats in that section at the same time.

Pay all that money to sit their then sit their. If no one is sitting their no reason not to let some fella feel good for a couple hours. Your coming off as a pompous tool.

Most LL tickets sold over face on stubhub/ticketexchange as they always do... only about double though not crazy like the big games. Are you serious with this sh*t? Dude please.

So some fella who can't afford those lower seat gets lucky when you don;t show up and feels like a king for a day. Not sure why that would bother you. I live in the DC area and I have many friends with Skin and Raven tickets that actually offer them to me or whoever if their not going to use them. Just confused why you would care if not using them anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't care about the others that paid hundreds if not thousands more to sit there who now feel badly because someone came and just sat down for free. LOL those seats are FAR from free. Lets be realistic here. Tickets are overpriced, and even the cheap seats aren't that cheap. If fans are too disloyal to stay at a game that THEY paid for, why should they care if someone else takes their seat when they bail early on their team? You want to prevent people from doing that? Stay at the game instead of being a clown that leaves early. I remember last year at the Texans game, half the stadium must have left only to miss the Jets make an awesome comeback. Tisk tisk. It's not like a person sitting in an empty chair effects you in the least. They just get a little more enjoyment out of the game and it helps with crowd noise as well. What's the big friggin deal???? Anyone bothered by a fellow Jets fan getting a better view of the game needs psychological help. If you want to blame someone blame the idiots that pay big dollars for the seat and then don't watch the whole game. Most people in the cheaper seats can't afford the expensive ones, so it's really not a big deal. It's like how an airplane can upgrade your tickets to first class if the seats are open or they have a screw up. Don't be all self righteous because you make more money than others. That is the worst form of selfishness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
