18000 seats alleged to still be available for sale!?! Most New Yorkers and Jerseyites don't give two hoots for anyone but their own teams--poor planning to not consider this fact. The game should be at a location that has a high probability of nice weather for the fans attending.

Doubtful if any of you, excited that its in NYC area are attending but like the idea of watching a chill bowl from the comforts of your TV manhole room.


The only seats I've heard were available are on the "secondary" market.

The prices are dropping , but are still way above face.

I'm a die hard Giants fan, but there are several other teams I would go to see, especially since I live close to the Stadium.

But paying over face, plus $150. for a parking pass, to see 2 teams I have no interest in, just to say I was there, doesn't make sense.



Have you seen that a suit has been filed in NJ court claiming violation of NJ law (forget the exact law), but essentially a minimum of 5% of all tickets must be released on the primary market, and this appears to be in clear violation.


When the suit was first filed the papers out here had a couple of articles about it.

The feeling seems to be that this is going to difficult at best to prove in court.
