Not sure if anyone has noticed, but the Jets have sold very few (of the remaining inventory) seats today. Considering the euphoria of the game 7 win, and a Saturday night opening game, I think they may have exceeded what even the most die-hard fans are willing to pay.
I checked ticketmaster at 10am this morning, and there were lots of "blue dots" available for the Saturday game. Even more for the Monday night game. Out of curiousity, I just checked again (6 hours later) and it seems like there are even more tickets posted than there were this morning.
The Bud Lounge is $682 per seat + ticketmaster fees. They seemingly have had 50+ tickets available all day. Everything in the lowerbowl is $420+. Upperbowl corners are $320. At some point, you simply price yourself too high. I'm a season seat holder. What I pay for my seats for round 3 is $285.20. Yet, the "unsold inventory" for the exact same seat is $630 for Joe Public.
Keep in mind, the wealthiest of Jets fans all already have season tickets. Heck, many own Suites. I'm friends with many of them. There just aren't that many without tickets; and no matter how rich you are, $1400 for a pair of tickets is steep. Especially considering there are two home games in 3 days.
Again, just an observation, but the fact that the game tomorrow is still far from a sell-out is indicating something! 25K "free" street party tickets sold-out, yet nobody is paying (the steep prices) to be inside the rink!
Round 3 Prices:
P1 - $682
P2 - $603
P3 - $497
P4 - $417
P5 - $376
P6 - $317
P7 - $229
