Lil Bit Special Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 aec4 you are playing devils advocate and that is all well and good. But answer this question. 2 teams play in the same stadium. Assume that all of the back end financial costs are exactly the same. Who should have the higher prices? The team that has won 3 super bowls in the last 20 years. Or the team with none in almost 40? Giants are 18th in revenue in the NFL. The Jets are 21st. They will do what they have to do to narrow the gap. http://www.forbes.com/lists/2007/30/biz_07nfl_NFL-Team-Valuations_Revenue_2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green DNA Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Is my math wrong -- or does $7 per 4 minutes work out to $218,400 (40 hour work week) ? Anyone who is making over 200 grand isn't complaining about this increase. Except DNA but he is known for being cheap. I'll show you cheap when I don't renew my VIP membership. I'll be doing that just on principle, not to save the $54.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green DNA Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Dont pay for them if you cant afford it... dont complain either... your lucky to have them... pay up or move over for the next guy.

KINGDIRK Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 They didnt cheer when Chad was on the ground, they cheered the moment Kellen came onto the field Save that Bull$hit.

Now back to the topic at hand: BZ -- any comment on the Jets having HIGHER ticket prices than the Super Bowl Champion Giants? Yeah, I think it sucks. Of course, MY seats are actually LOWER than the Super Bowl Champions, but I want let that sway me. For the better upper tier sections (309-313 and 329-333), the Giants are charging $85 a seat while the Jets get $80. The rest of the upper tier seats are $80 for the Giants and $75 for the Jets. It seems pretty ****ed up that two teams, in the same stadium would charge different prices but they are owned by two different companies. The flight from LGA to ATL isn't the same on all the airlines. The cost of searching on websites isn't always the same. Also, you need to go back and read it, the Jets are charging LESS for the worse seats and more for the better seats. Isn't that more fair?

Especially from you, who until that comment I would have thought better than that. My skin is pretty thick, I have been called a lot worse by many more, but it just seemed out of the blue and uncalled for in this thread. That is my take. I let you know and we are cool.

BZ Well let's get one thing straight -- the upper deck people? The upper deck people? C'mon they are not part of this discussion. The upper deck people can't afford PSLs so the Jets are just throwing them a bone early because they only have a year or two left, lol. I didn't do the math. But I believe that the Giants take in less total ticket dollars from the fans. I will do the math later, I have to leave now. But if that is true, that is messed up. The Giants coming off a Super Bowl could have raised prices much higher and wouldn't have done anything. Once again I believe the Giants care more about their fans. That is the whole premise. I get the supply and demand thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Giants send the tooth fairy and Santa Clause out to hand deliver the tickets with pixy dust. (this would be where you would putting a rolling on the floor with laughter to make your point). I remember reading all those articles about how Kraft loves his fans, how he started as a fans and was true to his fans, go ask Gainzo how that is going? The NFL owners love their fans like the Pharaohs loved the slaves, like Marlboro likes a smoker and like Coors likes a college campus. It is not the love a friend or family member, but one of the ruler loving its subjects. Time to take all of this pricing and such a little less personally.

Boozer76 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 LOL!!!!!! Someone flag this man for reaching. The Jets have to charge more because they charter a bus on game day? I love it. Get your act together son. You have potential but I fear you will never reach the golden $218,400 milestone if you don't snap out of this funk. Don't forget the Jets give half their parking fee income over to the Giants AND pay rent. The Jets have a hell of alot more costs than the Giants.

They usually are usually short but they go like this: LOL. Loser. And you know what? He is right? Jets tickets are more expensive than Giants tickets. That my friends is unreal.

jetmant87 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 no... just bandwagon fans who want to "be a part of the experience" I love the look on peoples faces the first time they get to join Ed in his Jets chant. Its like a little kid on christmas. The "real" fans who sit around me dont do ed's jets chant. They high-five, they are happy, but dont do ed's chant. define "real fan" i think what u said makes sense but those guys have been there done that theyre used to eds cahnt. for those who donot hold season tickets, it really is a nice experience. i loved it the 2 times ive been to the meadowlands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
