“the new site has no corresponding pricing for the PSLs and what will cost what”
I don’t think I understand this. The PSL prices are listed, so what is missing?

i just hope i don’t get squeezed out of my Upper Level seat by the people moving from the PSL’s to up top. I love my uppers, 323 and really enjoy sitting in the end zone. before that i would buy tix in 303 and loved it there as well

Yea i got 4 seats in the corner of the mez so thats 4 a pop, i love the view from my seats but many of the people around me just plain suck, sitting there with their binoculars not cheering and looking at you like your crazy for getting up and screaming.
I am ready to move back to the uppers, well see how the whole seniority thing works, I think we have had seats for around 20 years. I think this will get messy with everyone moving there seats around, alot of people are going to want to go to the uppers, especially people with 4+ seats in their name

The Giants pricing scheme is actually cheaper then the Jets. INSANITY

devo says:
$95 for the cheapest seat? And there’s a waiting list for this?!
Christ. I guess I just don’t understand the value of the live experience. For ninety dollars less I can go to a sports bar, sip a soda, and enjoy the game without being surrounded by drunken misogynists.
Well, maybe not the last bit, but they probably won’t be as obnoxious about it.

The Ed(itor) says:
I guess the JETS figured they would throw a bone to the upper deck crowd with no PSLs. But take a look at the outrageous per game ticket prices. My seats in the corner of the end zone are $10,000 a pop. Plus $140 a game in 2010 which is sure to increase in 2011. And no mention of parking which will also increase.
So after 31 years of being a season ticket holder, I will not pay the extortion demanded by the JETS to see a game in person. I may watch the games, if they are on free TV and I will invest the $60,000 in 529 plans to send my grandkids to college. A much better use of $60,000 then donating it to Woody.
And anyone who thinks or calls this an investment, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I would like to sell you.

Editor.. I agree with you, but this thing goes beyond a bad investment.
This is a scam flying under the radar for some time now , and it is made possible thanks to our “do nothing good” government.
It is a pricing scam for several reasons. Here are some.
It guarantees revenue irrespective of product quality and game demand.
a. If people do not like the product (the team) they cannot simply say I do not buy the product.
If they do so they lose the money paid for the PSL (the investment) . Now they can salvage something if they sell it in the open market, but if they do not like the product what makes them think that others will? Most likely if they sell their PSL they will get a serious hair-cut. They will lose a significant portion of the money they paid to buy it.
Moreover, let’s also assume that the team is so bad that you do not want to buy the tickets and in the open market the PSL has almost zero value. Then you may be forced to buy the tickets in hope that the product (team) will improve in the future and the value of the PSL may go up. So you buy the tickets to save your investment, not because you like the product.b. If people like the product (the team) and the demand is high, most likely the value of the PSL will go up, but this will send a signal to the organization that the demand is high and they will raise ticket prices. However as ticket prices go up , demand will decrease and the value of the PSL will go down.
c. Given that the PSL mechanism lasts as long as the stadium does, if we use history, we can say that it will last approximately 30 years. In 30 years its value will be zero.
Therefore, long –term its value will be zero, while short-term any increase in its value will be temporary.
Wow , this sounds like a great investment!!
I bet that if this PSL pricing is challenged in the courts, it will be found to be in violation of anti-trust laws.
How can the NFL defend this as fair business practice when; If the product is bad, and the demand is not good, who cares, the consumer will pay the price one way or another, and when the demand is good he will be paying a higher price. -
Joe S says:
so for two seats its $14,320(incl PSLs) then its $4320 per/season(Lower-red)
the “cheapest” seats are $3420 for two seats!!
So much for the average fan
Woody is a moron who needs to go
How do you build a stadium that 2 teams will share and then ask for PSLs while teams build stadiums by themselves and dont add PSLs (Patriots are an example)
What is wrong with the current Stadium
-
Thurdeye says:
Lower redzone is $10K for the PSL’s then $2400 for the tickets. Total $12,400.
And the cheapest seats are $1900 for a pair.
What kind of math are you doing?

Slink88 says:
Yeah…After 13 years of being a season-ticket holder this will be my last season as well. I’m simply priced out. It was a nice run (well 1998 and 2002 were nice) but all good things must come to an end. It’s a shame to have to leave like this when my son is just coming to the age where we would have a great time going to games together but it is what it is.
I can be bitter and blame Woody and such but it doesn’t help me and fact is he will find someone to pay for the seats. So why would he care if they were “real fans” or not? It’s not about the fans and it really never was (it’s just more obvious now).
I’ll still wear my Jets green and white on Sundays but it will be in my living room and with a little less passion. I can’t continue to pour my money, time, and energy into a team that obviously doesn’t care back. I’m not being angry about it (if it sounds that way) just resigning to the fact.
Let’s hope this last season for a lot of season ticket holders is a memorable one!

What is lost in this JETS PSL rip off is the MINIMUM 20% increase in ticket prices. The upper deck goes from $80 to $95. Good seats go from $80 to $125 or 56%. My seats, if I was stupid enough to pay the this absurd fee, go from $80 to $140 or 75% increase!! If you are stupid enough to pay a PSL, you are setting yourself up to be continually ripped off by ticket price increases. And of course we haven’t heard from the Sports Authority on what it will cost to park. $50 anyone??? WHO NEEDS THIS??? I plan to watch the games on TV. I will save at least $350 a game and can turn them off when they don’t show up for a game.

Nikolas, why should the government get involved with Jets ticket prices? Jets Season Tickets are not a neccessary expense for anyone. If they cost too much for you, dont buy them. If you view it as an investment, and you dont think it’s a good one, dont buy them. If it’s worth the money to you to see the games live, then buy them. Simple. The games are still free on TV. Lets not get all crazy about this. It’s a free market economy, and supply and demand will drive the prices, just like in real estate and anything else. If nobody buys any tickets, the PSL’s will reduce or go away until people do. I have a feeling they will sell though, especially since Favre is QB and people want to see him. Everyone complained about the meadowlands, well, this is what we get for demanding a new stadium. Did anyone think they would build a cheap no frills stadium so they could keep ticket prices the same for the true fans? Was anyone expecting Woody to pay for a billion dollar stadium out of his pocket? My plan? Let all the rich people pay for the PSL’s, then hire Rich Kotite and give him full control. All the fair weather Favre fans will sell their tix dirt cheap after the 3rd consecutive 1-15 season, and voila! I have great tickets in 2015!

If you read any introductory economics text-book you learn that according to Economic theory:
1. Free-Markets result to FAIR PRICES and economic efficiency only if the markets are COMPETITIVE,
2. If the markets are MONOPOLISTIC (no competitive) then Free Markets result to UNFAIR PRICES and economic inefficiency.
3. Economists propose GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION and REGULATION (no free-markets) when the markets are Monopolistic, because only then you can improve economic efficiency and Fair Pricing.Since the NFL is a Monopolistic Industry, economic efficiency and fairness in price can be restored only through government regulation and intervention.

Jets fans call your congressman!
-
The NFL is not a monopolistic industry. First of all, the government should only step in if the monopoly is related to something an individual can not live without..i.e. energy, food…etc. Second, Jets Stadium is not the only place to see a Jets game. There’s Radio, TV and Internet broadcasts. Third, the NFL competes with a multitude of other sports and entertainment events… NHL, MLB, Soccer, Tennis, Horse Racing, Concerts…etc.
As entertaining as the Jets are, Woody is still trying to run a business… and if the government intervenes and he and the other owners lose money, you won’t have ANY football to watch.
-
“Jets fans call your congressman!” to do what?
tell him i have to pay more money to be one of the lucky ones to go see a professional football game in person? going to a game is a treat, having to pay more $$ is terrible and financially a pain in the a$$. but there is no reason to get the govt. involved
-
scapp….
I can understand the layman’s point of view, that is your view, but you do not decide what is a monopolistic industry or not, the government does; and according to the government the NFL is a monopolistic industry.
You reference about competition with other products, does not qualify for COMPETITION.
COMPETITION must exist for the specific product.From an educational point of view, you should disregard faulty perceptions that occupy significant space in your brain.
First you must understand that government regulation and intervention in monopolistic industries does not result to zero or negative profits for the monopolists, it results to fair profits. So the owners do not lose money, they make what is called a fair profit for the money invested.
Do you really thing that Woody was losing money under the current arrangement? If you think so, well you are wrong. -
J2B…..
call your congressman and demand a congressional inquiry on whether PSL pricing violates anti-trust laws or fair business practices.
-
i hope my congressman has more important things to do than worry about whether PSL pricing violates anti-trust laws or fair business practices.
it’s not like the Jets and Giants are the first team to go with PSL’s. i hate PSL’s but to get the govt. involved is just a waste of time and tax money
-
J2B ..
this is the attitude that people have…and that is why we pay $4.50/gallon for gas, and the prices of everything have gone through the roof.
Monopolistic industries
A lazy and do notrhing government
People who think they waste time and tax money, only to pay 50 times more by doing nothing. -
Bent says: Hang on…won’t a congressional hearing into something as trivial as this cost loads of (presumably taxpayer) money? I (by choice) know nothing about politics, but it sounds like you’re being a bit counter-intuitive here.
PS – We pay $9 for a gallon of gas over here (Britain). Not trying to make any political point or anything, just thought you might find it interesting.

let’s just agree to disagree
-
Nikolas…
Who says I’m a layman? I hold a B.S. from a pretty good School of Business, and have worked in business for 12 years. And who says the government is always right when it comes to deciding what a monopoly is? And if you agree with the government, then the recent decision that Sirius/XM is NOT a monopoly, even though they are now the ONLY satellite radio company on the planet, should prove my point entirely. Even specific to football, there are other teams you could go buy season tickets for. Asking the government to limit Woody’s profit even just a little bit, because some Jets fans think tickets are too much is just crazy socialism, and would destroy his incentive to waste any time or money on his team.
And I don’t think Woody is losing money in the current agreement. Rather I believe that after the addition of a BILLION DOLLAR stadium, he would lose money under the current agreement.
And I have no faulty perceptions taking up any space in my brain. I can’t fault you for that though, because sadly, you cannot learn common sense from an economic text book.
This is a ridiculous discussion. This blog is about Jets football. Watch the games on TV and lets root for the J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!. -
Scapp…..
Common sense existed always, but the common sense of the 15th century is not the same with that of the 21st. The reason being that today’s common sense due to discovery and scientific truth has aborted the misconceptions of the past; and your common sense is loaded with misconceptions from the past.
Misconception ONE: Since when is government regulation crazy socialism?
Misconception TWO: Since when stupid business decisions ,like building a stadium which started with an estimate of 750 million dollars in construction costs and has ballooned to more than 1.6 billion , must be rewarded?
Since you have a B.S degree from a reputable institution, then you should know that in the free-market system stupid business decisions are not rewarded; unless you have an unregulated Monopolistic status that allows you to screw others to pay for your stupidity.Misconception THREE: It is not government regulation that is crazy socialism but rather unregulated Monopolies that define crony Capitalism.

Your comments are absurd. This conversation is over. -

I can’t beleive I’m saying this but Nicolas is right. Deregulation is a nightmare for the middle class. This has been true throughout our history.

Thank you….
Pat D,……we don’t have to disagree on everything. Actually I think that we agree in more things than we disagree….and remember don’t shoot the messenger.

SELLING RIGHTS ONLY?
Spoke to the txt office today and they told me that every season txt hldr will have a chance to purchase season txts….caveat…they might be Coaches Club seats ($25K per, woohoo).
If you just got off the waitlist within the last few years, you probably are going to get crowded out as the rest of the stadium pushes into the 27K seats in the top bowl. If you don’t want to fork over PSL fees, what do you do?
Can you sell your “place” in line to someone else? Not really as the right to purchase or get a non PSL seat is being distributed based on seniority and your transferee only gets credit for being a season ticket holder as of the date of transfer…yuk. All you are selling is the last place in line regardless of how long you have held your tickets.
I will take a flyer and will try to buy someone’s rights only for a few hundred…. maybe I will get a crack at a couple of decent PSL seats. Who knows? Know anyone who is looking to unload?

SackDance99 says:
Let’s start off with a given: PSLs suck. They’re a way for billionaire owners to stick the fans with the costs of building new stadiums that, over the life of the new stadium, will net those billionaire owners countless millions more. It’s not fair. It’s also not illegal, not violative of any existing laws and the only antitrust implication is whether PSL revenue has to be shared by the Jets and Giants with their other greedy NFL owners (the answer is “Yes”).
Singling out Woody for doing what any other NFL owner would do in his position is plain silly. He did decide to forego $27 million in easy PSL revenue by making the upper level PSL free. I’m not saying he deserves any award for not being as greedy as the Maras, but at least 27,000 die hard Jets fans will see the Jets play in a new stadium that will be the closest the Jets have ever had to their own home without having to pay a PSL. Also, the NY metro area has around 30 million people and just 2 NFL franchises. If anyone wants to see how outrageous prices are to see sporting events in NYC, look at the ticket prices for the Mets and Yanks in their new stadiums or how the Dolans screw loyal Knick and Ranger fans.
Look, I have upper level season tickets and I was hoping to upgrade my seats. Now, I’m not even sure that I’ll be able to keep my seat location. But, I’m not crying about it either. Also, if you’re a fan with 8 season tickets in the lower level, well, you also have a tremendous opportunity. Finance the seats, sell a couple of the PSLs on the open market…this is the NY metro area, take a look on Stub Hub at how much seats are going for the last game at Shea for the Mets. Sell some games, think like Woody and the greedy NFL owners because that license will allow you to buy the best seats for NFL football in the NY metro area. Judging from last season, plenty of “loyal” fans had no problem dumping their seats on Steelers fans…and, for the record, I was there razzing those fans all game. Methinks there’s a lot of hypocrisy going on here.

From ESPN:
“A New Jersey lawmaker is urging the New York Giants to rethink their plan to sell personal seat licenses for every seat in the new football stadium at the Meadowlands.
Assemblyman Anthony Chiappone is sponsoring legislation that would ban the sale of seat licenses at all sports facilities in the state.”
At least some legistators are doing their Job.

question:
wil newer season ticket holders currently in the upper endzone be able to move downward to psl seats when the rush upstairs happens?
if i’m in row 26 now, then i do not look forward to more frequent nosebleeds. better bring some tissues, so i don’t get red on my green.
-
Bent says:
I think that’s right, if you’re prepared to pay and if any are left (which there should be) but you’ll have to wait in line behind longer tenured season ticket holders who have also been displaced by previous lower tier ticket holders who moved up so they wouldn’t need to pay PSL’s.
Call the Jets ticket office with any queries.
im just no convinced about woody johnson , does he reallly care about the fans or his pocket , maybe one dya i might watch a game in the new stadium but that is after woody realizes the PSL was a bad idea and he gets rid of it, the least he can do is make it optional for all the seats be it a lower or higher level in the stadium , he needs to get that through his thick head , he doesnt own the jets the city does the fans do not him hes just a caretaker , well atleast he aint Al davis
