flushingjet Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Where did the NYJETS come up with the pairs of seats that were 4 sale near the end of the 2007 season that were 4 sale on NewYorkJets.com.Nobody wanted to go and the brokers couldnt even get rid of the tickets so they made them available on their own homepage.While loyal season ticket holders put in for upgrades and denied. The seats that come up on the Jets web site were sourced from existing season ticket holder accounts' seats- The Jets self-hosted version of Stubhub, more or less. I'm also on the waiting list so these were offered/available to me as well. If someone pays for tickets but later decides not to go to the remaining games and uses the Jets as resellers, they havent given up their season tickets for anyone else to take over or move up or down to- Completely separate issue. I have no idea how many people request movement of their seats and get it, and whether the Jets prefer filling from the wait list before moving people up/down. but I hear you with the movement thing. Im not sure who to "blame" because this has been an ongoing issue since Hess owned the team. I can only blame it on people fiercely holding onto their tickets, whether they go, dont go, resell, whatever. My friend whose account my seats are in is now in his 24th consecutive year has only been able to add sideways in our row since 1984 (originally 4, now 7) but has not been able to get a group of 7 in any configuration down.

Maxman Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Gate D at halftime One question though -- is that girl actually checking out her own boobs? I saw Smizzy do that once (check out his own boobs) but it doesn't seem right when a girl does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JETSFAN5180 Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 flushingjet Its guys like you who will continually be bent over and not say or do a dam thing about it.I wont miss the people like you who feel they are above us all because you have chosen the right to pay up.It wasnt a financial decision at all.It was a decision based on the organizations handling of the season tickets.In 14 years as a ticket holder I had requested a seating upgrade in which I never got.When I first got my season tickets preseason was an option. This is a forum where people annoy the hell out of eachother its all based on each individuals opinions like it or not. Brokers have all the prime seats and many of them come from directly from the NYJETS.Im not arguing or complaining about the increases in ticket prices.Its all about personal choice.When the team is playing well tickets can be sold for the games I could not attend.When the team stinks you cant give the tickets away.I have enjoyed my time as a 14 year season ticket holder.I wish whoever gets my seats the same satisfaction I had with them.I wont miss the LOSS of the preseason games this year would have been $650. I will buy tickets online and still enjoy my team the NYJETS without the cost of the preseason.$650 in my pocket.Enjoy the season. Go Jets!

124 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I'd gladly pay the $5 more if the Jets won the SB Yep. And there in lies the difference. I don't care if I would have to pay $150 per seat and $30 for parking if the Jets won the Super Bowl and were Super Bowl contenders each year. I would have no problem at all. When the team has done very little since 1969, I find it pretty scumbagish that they raise the prices after a 4-12 season for both parking & tickets. They don't need the money for the new stadium, don't give me that. Both of these owners of BILLIONS and the stadium costed 1.3 Billion and they could make their money with higher prices, and no PSL's, come 2010 and beyond.

The money spent on Preseason games is a waste. As a season ticket holder, you have two options: Bring someone for free or give them away. Nobody is going to pay you for that game unless you have a group of people who each pay 50%, 33 1/3rd%, 25%, 20%, etc. People give them away to their mailmen, friends who have little kids who wouldn't bring the kids to a regular season game or just bring a friend for free and ask them to buy the case of beer that night. Now I don't think we should get the tickets for free, this isn't the 70's or 80's, this is now and they have to charge us, but how about $40 a seat, which for me would be half? Sounds reasonable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of my decision to surrender was because of the $650.I can add that money and get better seats on StubHub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aec4 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 But you don't have season tickets, yet you are the leader in posts in these threads all the time. some people pay good money to whine, so get over it. I agree with you, for the eleventy billionth time.

124 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I'd still like to know where and when I cried aec4. Your amazing logic and theory fails to add in the fact that most season ticket holders were upset about a $150 pay increase or more with their tickets after a 4-12 season. Those are the plain, simple facts. Sorry that you "don't like the game day experience anymore", stalker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are not in the recent present how does this pertain to you? So with your logic it's ok if you paid what you paid when you ''had season tickets''?

Gaynzo, Of course you wouldnt understand anything about a jets tailgate- you're probably one of those cheapo bastiges who stands near my portable HDTV setup to watch the 1 oclock Sunday Ticket games on 4:15 game days and sleazes beers outta my cooler or grabs a few slabs of tasty freshly sliced steak off my table when they think I'm not looking. HDTV is pretty good, next time you're in Costco check it out, they might have a open box deal with a few light scuffs in your price range. You think I give a ff what a Pats fan or some negative-a$$ Jets fan thinks about what I or others do re: jets tickets or jets games I go because I choose to and I manage to enjoy myself win or lose, not because some freak with an inferiority complex tells me that's it's all in vain... so you must be confusing me with the people you list above. apologies if I don't join in the mass hysteria of giving up going to games featuring the team I've rooted for over 40 years.
