im not about to scour the threads looking for it. what you interpret is your business not mine. thanks

did you by chance sell your tix on stubhub for $1.99?
For someone who just took a $40,000 loss on Jets tickets/PSL's, you sure have a big mouth. Are you related to Rex? One would think that losing over 40 grand over a 3 year period would inspire a little humility. LOL.

You could do the same and use your 232 PDfs and find a pair of empties. Even move under cover when it rains.
Yup, got my 232 originals for that purpose if it comes to that.

But because of the hernia, if I do go, it'll be LL for sure. Can't deal with escalators and walking up/down my stairs, not today.

My goal is to find $50 Club seats around 6pm, I've got the parking covered.

you both are wealthy folk with lots of disposable income. can't you guys find some common ground, like how the upper deck folks smell?

you have coaches club seats. i would assume the 700 per ticket is a very tiny portion of your net worth. you have great seats, why do you care about SAR's seats?

and SAR drives a 3 series BMW. and it's leased not owned which obviously is better. so he's got a great car and a great seat in the stadium.

win win for both of you.

The real interesting thing is to see if the Jets launch hundreds or thousands of lawsuits to people that violate their PSL agreement. They will have to weigh lossof income due to contract violation vs PR nightmare of suing own fans.

I for one will be looking to take this opportunity to upgrade
me too. Would like to move to 137/140, but only at a big PSL discount.

i dont have the chase/lexus club seats anymore. i traded them to a ticket broker for lower level psls. i took a loss as we speak of approx $30k.

it was a no brainer for me with each ticket per game $295. i bought in made a mistake and hopefully fixed it.

the Giants did.

The sidelines ledge of 4 rows between the end zones plus the 2 full upper sections between the 40's are the "Upper Primes". Giants charged $5,000 PSL for those. Jets made them PSL-free.

but isnt it metlife jets stadium when he jets play?

what the super bowl champion giants do should have no bearing on us.

the giants also charge $1000 psl for anyother upper deck seat is this correct?

There's a single that just showed up for $50 on SH.

Buying tickets for this game was like buying FB stock on IPO day. I am 2 rows off the field for under face -- even after fees, parking, etc, -- and I still feel like I got jobbed.

how much is parking, and is there a difference if you have club or non club seats, do you go to a different lot, etc?

you have access to vip parking that doesnt always mean you get it. the parking situation is something that needs fixing for all ticket holders.

some paid for it and some didnt.

Nothing is different today than it was on opening day last month. The only news here is that unlike past games where StubHub is down to 500 seats by now, it's sitting at 4,000 seats because there are no Houston Texan fans to buy them. If this were, say, the Pittsburgh Steelers, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

nobody is jumping ship on good non-club lowerlevel seats. Jets have sucked for long periods of time before.

Plus if people jump and you stick it out the Jets may work something out. However, one NFL team I forgot who had PSLs they were a flop and they just stopped selling them. Season tickets were sold in those seats when they became available with no PSL and anyone with PSL payments left could just stop paying them. The issue was all the folks who already paid off their PSLs were screwed and got no money back.

Other issue is what if Jets went to variable pricing like Nets or Yankees. Sars front row corner Mezz A seats would be lets say $180 a ticket while last row Mezz A dead in Endzone would be lets say $100 a ticket. That is a risk that could happen but I don't think would happen.

I heard orginally the Jets considered charging a higher PSL price for rows 1-4 in Lower Level, TC, LGL and LSL and kinda make a new version of the Front Row Club Jets had in old stadium. Demand was weak so they killed it. Big issue with PSLs is trust. I trust Jets. But in reality according to PSL agreement they could say row one Mezz A should pay an extra $25 bucks a ticket and you have to pay it or default.

the Jets have PSL holders by the balls by this logic. and up to a point, this is true.

But, it's not easy filling 80k seats to a football game. you have the most likely customers already there. if you piss them off so much that they leave - you think the Jets can fill up the remaining seats?

unlikely in my view.
