The last game ever played at Giants stadium was in January 2010 against the Bengals, and I was there. Had a great time. That wasn’t that long ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The home ticket prices were higher earlier in the season. Never buy in advance. Always buy the week of usually by Wednesday or Thursday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being that I had a zero percent chance of getting these seats in the old stadium I’m happy and can’t wait to renew. Im also not a fair weather fan. Fair weather fan? Jets are always bad, their never good. And I’ve been a season ticket holder last 7 years. My point is from a financial perspective that buying season tickets is a suckers move. For example, right now on stubhub you can sit in section 116 for Sunday’s game for $50. The face value on that seat is $140. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section314 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I talked with my rep last week for about 15 mins. He started off the call by asking me “ how my experience this year was going?” I responded “ you’re kidding, right?” He tried to tell me how he sees things getting “ better,” and I had to bite my tongue and stay calm. Proceeded to give him the honest perspective of a 42 year season ticket holder, someone who has seen this sh*t got many years before he was even born. You could have heard a pin drop. We had a pretty good conversation, and I actually told him I felt somewhat sorry for some of my comments . Actually told me I was a pleasure to talk to compared to many others he had spoken with. We left off with me telling him I will talk after the season about a serious upgrade to my tix, as people are going to be fleeing this place like they did when the Titanic was going down. Will be a good opportunity. My main takeaway from the call is just how oblivious this organization is, from top to bottom, just how horrible things are. They live in constant denial. Guess that’s easy when you get close to one billion / year in revenue before a game is played. Unless you are an A type personality as an owner, there is absolutely no reason to be good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some and I am one of them, sitting in the same seats is the way I enjoy watching the game. Where this discussion always goes off the rails is when we make it financial. Whether you buy season tickets or individual games, it is entertainment dollars. If we try and make it financially savvy especially with a franchise that loses more than it wins, you will operate at a loss. For me it costs x for season tickets. that cost is worth it to me to sit in the same seats and spend time with family and friends. I do not put a cost on it nor will I judge others that do. As a side, I asked Santa once again for a super bowl. Any chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have kept the old stadium and painted the seats gray and used a new stadium name and I would have gladly paid a PSL. The new place is about as stale as an open bag of 10 month old potato chips. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have bought one Jets hat, and went to one road game in Jacksonville since 2015. I haven’t bought any merchandise since 2014 lol and the last two games I went to were in Tampa in 2017 (horrible game, fitz lit us up) and last month against Miami, which was the first home game I went to since 2016. The product is the same whether it’s on the road or at home. But it’s crazy how much more fun the game experience is on the road than at home.
