If this is posted somewhere else feel free to delete this thread . Just got an e mail from the Jets but I honestly did not read the entire thing as nowadays I usually delete e mails from the Jets without opening but the gist of this one is to send the Jets money and you can sit in a different seat location each week,,,LMAO. In days of yesterday this would have been impossible but I guess when there are so many empty seats on game day it is possible to move fans around each week,,,,,maybe I have it wrong but did anyone else get the e mail or know more about it ?
^What?! Hahahaha. So on top of being a STH they want you to pay for the opportunity to play musical chairs?! Does that mean 20,000 people bailed? WTH?! I'll check my email later and report back. . . OK, just checked and as of yet, I don't have anything like that. ^The most recent one I have is this from a couple of hours ago (and other ones with the usual plugs to buy Jets gear). Yep, I'm on it, purchasing a single game suite from the UD to impress my clients and reward my employees, haha.

purchase a $15,000 game day suite for a team that a good college team can beat and we'll give you $1,500 off plus a $500 food credit. Good luck trying to fill the suite with live bodies.
so where are the going to sit you and possibly 4 buddies ? Upstairs in gods country or downstairs ? Also if they do sit you downstairs won't that piss off the guy next to you who purchased a cockamamy PSL ? Whats next ,,,,,,?
Rick Kail · Eastchester Senior High School So another way to hurt the loyal PSL holder. Terrific !!! Like · Reply · 1 · 2 hrs Troy Phipps · University of Nebraska-Lincoln HAHAHA FUNNY JETS ARE FUNNY! Like · Reply · 2 hrs Philip Smith · Newark College of Engineering You can say that again! I regret paying the PSL in the first place. What a rip off that was. Like · Reply · 2 hrs
This in NOT for STHs, that's why I didn't get the email. Basically the Jets are offering people the opportunity purchase all 10 games (as if pre-season are actually games) for the season with various seats that people dropped. $725 for an entire season?! There has to be a catch, but if not, tell me, WTH am I doing paying almost 3 grand? I just might be signing up for this bait and switch after 2017, but rest assured "Maybe even the front row!" means you'll be sitting in the crappiest seats in the house with perhaps one exception. However, if I was a PSL holder, I'd be foot-stomping mad. I should call my rep tomorrow to hear the fine print, because reading the fine print wasn't entirely helpful. Watch it backfire, and people who paid 25K per PSL start bailing for $725. Please, God, please, I'll be your best friend. GO JETS!
JETO my gut feeling is these people are going to be put upstairs each week ,,,,maybe by front row they mean front row of the upper deck ? Nothing would surprise me with these bastards ! If anyone talks to a rep or gets info please share ,I am sure many are curious .
So $725 makes it $72.50 per ticket. For a second I thought it was $7.25. Funny, no mention of parking passes, haha. What's that smell? It ain't victory, but it's definitely desperation.
You know, I'm curious enough to show my complete ignorance... So I know I can get decent tix for 300 per game. Add some food, parking and for 8 home game I'll spend... let's say 3.5K to be generous. This is buying online. From what I read here, season package will run x5 times more if I had PLS. This math confuses bejesus outta me. If these ## are correct, why would anyone pay so much more , is there something extra season tix giving you? From Jets, why are they pricing so high, don't they understand it'll drive people to ditch the season tix and go thru online? And why they are somehow right and people still keep PLS? The economics completely escapes me here. I gotta be missing something in this picture, right?
So if there's a game the out-of-towners are coming to you get to sit up with the pigeons; if nobody wants to go to the game you get shoved downstairs to hide an empty seat from the cameras.
They're charging each person $745 to sit in the 300's for AT LEAST 7 or 8 out of the 10 games. Overall, if you attend all 10, you might get LL or Mezz seats for 2-3 games, I'm assuming both Preseason games and they'll throw you a bone for 1 Regular Season game. Not worth it. Buy on the second hand market. Feel bad for those who still have PSL's who will see these guys sitting in the same seats for a few games a year, if not better seats, than they are and paying $2,000 less per year and no PSL. That'll be a great feeling.
Impressive. Last year it was only $1,500 off the seat and $500 credit or $500 gift card. No $500 food & beverage card. Now let me find that $8,500 for a single game suite I have laying around somewhere.
