I for one go to every game, and if I can't make it I give them to a family or friend who I know is a diehard fan. But there has to be a death in the family for me not to go.
3 and yes I go to every game. When I got my tixx in 1991 I was 11 years old so obviously I wasn't going to night games but I went pretty often and since 1998 I've only missed 1 regular season home game which was in 1999 and a handful of preseason games. If you buy Jets season tickets as an "investment" you're a shmuck. I don't buy them assuming I can sell off games I can't use.
i have missed 3 games in the past 2 years 2010 halloween & thanksgiving 2011 xmas eve i used to miss 1 or 2 a year from being out all night drinking and partying,so I've made a rule for myself.no drinking the night before a jets home game
An investment in your life. You just dont flush $5k down the toilet do you? Who goes to a game thinking they will lose and who cares? Thats a jackass.
Season tickets are a risk and a gamble. The NYJETS can go 1-15 ive been there and done that. I hope others stick around like I did after that.
I don't worry about the Jets going 1-15 anymore, not with Mr. T and Rex in charge. I just purchased a 60 inch Samsung Series 8000 HDTV/3D Smart TV for my family room with a new sound system and Blue Ray. I am totally pumped to watch the NFL, does anyone know if the NFL plans on showing any games in 3D? I heard the Super Bowl was 3D. Hoping Verizon carries Olympics in 3D. Anyone have the Samsung 8K series? http://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN60ES8000FXZA-features
I pay for my own seat, my dad for his, my sister for hers. Once I turned 21 my dad decided to shirt that bill over to me and make me pay for my own seat. Before that I would pitch in a bit towards it but 21 I was on my own for it. If you had end zone seats those were $950 each times 4 is $3800 plus $250 for parking so $4,050. Since you've said you paid for your tickets and let your son and friends use the seats you my friend are the jackass for giving them a free ride for 2 seasons of Jets football.
Why don't you and Champ start your own thread where you write the same posts over and over and over like you two have done here and leave the rest of us alone. We get it. You think the UD is high and the view is better at home. Whoop de damn do for you. I am not sure why you need everybody to agree with you on that point. I disagree and think the view is better from my seats at the stadium than at home and enjoy being at the game. Debate over. Your decision was right for you, mine was right for me. Now move on.
No jackass here. My sons friends paid me back in yard work,pool openings and closings along with weekly cleaning,car washing,painting you name it. They even bought me 2 PRIME LL SEATS for 1 game WHERE YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE FIELD AND PLAYERS YOU WOULDNT KNOW ABOUT THAT. Even if they didnt fully pay me back who the hell cares.
Thank You Joe, beem saying that for weeks. Please everyone, until Champ and GM have something new to say, please ignore. We get it guys, move one or go away. Over and over and over.
Theres no doubt its better at the game like many are saying, in a seat where you can actually see the field and players without needing binoculars. No argument from me on that one. If I wanted to watch ant farm football id still be in the UD at the new stadium!
Another person for censorship. You should NOT be living in the USA but instead countries like China, Russia, North Korea or maybe even Cuba :sad:
They probably do not even realize that after 30 years or so for say 2 seats they have outlaid 20 or 30 Gs & got nothing in return since I am sure they are not entertained after a loss & since our overall record is still under 500 they have seen more losses then wins :sad:

hehe this is a classic. so because we live in the us of a you cannot tell people how you want things done. im pretty sure that they set up the forum so that things stay in a particular order, like this is a jets experience portion of the forum... its where posts like this one go. its not censorship as much as it is respecting the topic and the people involved in it. so please quit being a juice box about it.
So onto more important issues. 1. Anyone know of anyone who has purchased seats recently? I had a friend who was looking but I never heard back on the outcome. 2. Anyone making any tailgate upgrades this year? I'm content with most of my equipment this year but pretty soon I'll do my once a year Costco run for plates, forks, knives, solo cups etc that last me the entire season. 3. Any rumors as to what our tickets will look like?
