Maxman Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 This sounds like a great plan. In fact, a lot of season ticket holders are going to streamline the process and just turn their entire season in now. Hopefully the Jets are feeling just as charitable when it is on their dime.

Green DNA Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 They've had this for years. I usually donate my pre-season tix and take the tax deduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets have been using them for 10+ years. I donate all 10 of my preseason tickets (5 per preseason game) to United Way and get a fantastic charitable tax deduction for the face value of those worthless preseason tickets. For anyone who eats his preseason tickets each year, consider donating them to Tix for Kids and get your tax deduction. This gives a great opportunity to inner city kids to sit up close at a Jets game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
