Right! As if the high charge for parking has been equal to or more than what I would have paid for a PSL (let's say $5,000 for arguements' sake). Over the past 5 seasons, let's see now, 10 games per season (includes Pre-Season) X 5 years X $25 (allowing for the fact that other owners might charge $10 per car or most ticket holders will incur other transportation costs in that amount) for my car per game = $1,750 over those 5 seasons. At this rate it would take me 20 seasons (15 more) before that cost would equal the PSL. Pick any amount you want for the current market value of a PSL at a new stadium. When I'm a STH for 16 more years, I'll worry about it then.
Plus I figured that bseagle drove a winnebago to each game, not a Datsun- as such, your $25 quickly becomes $100.
Well if the Pats have not increased there prices in the last few years then with Woody's continuing spike of season tix prices I would think that some of the M/lands seats are coming real close to the Pats present prices

Bills are still overpriced- $53 to sit in that miserable stadium in one of the worst areas of NY state. They should be paying YOU to attend games.
Just wait until your new stadium is built. Fans of the JETS/Giants and the Cowboys are about to see a huge increase once their new stadiums are built, with or without PSLs. The prices were computed including 'seat premium fees and personal seat licenses that exist at stadiums throughout the league. The Club Seats go at Gillette stadium go for +/- $4000/season. Tickets prices for us common folk range from $59 to $125, without PSLs. Since most of us cannot afford 'premium seat fees (Club Seats or Corporate Boxes), it would make much more sense to do a comparison to compute the average ticket price as paid by those STH who don't own those premium seats, but might pay PSLs. BTW, at least we have a few championships to show for our high ticket prices. I guess you get what you pay for. (wink!wink!)
I will not buy a PSL, I would have been ok w/ it if we had our own stadium but they are getting double money from the league and have 2 teams to pay for it- there is no way they should make us buy PSL's and if they do my almost 20 year run of going to games will end.
Well the flat fee PSL seems better if U compare the Pats price vs ours as $50.00 more per seat per game= $500.00 a season or 5Gs after 10 years which means that if Woody charged 5Gs it is just a one time charge not a on going charge as the Pats have which in the end cost the fan more
A 500 buck charge over a 10 year span is a hell of a lot easier to swallow then a 5000 one time fee. I do not agree that the flat PSL "seems better". Jets Ticket prices will most certainly go up significantly with or without a PSL, so the gap will be closer if not more than the Pats by the time the new stadium opens.
Not if the Pats also keep raising prices then the gap will always exist unless Woody goes for a $50.00 hit per seat per game which then level the playing field between us & the Pats
