It must suck to be a New York Jets fan this season. Actually, make that the last few seasons.
After going to two straight AFC Championship games, the team has been met with mediocrity ever since. Nothing is bad as this year though, and it is reflecting on the ticket prices.
For Monday night's game against the Miami Dolphins, you can catch a steal deal to watch the Jets likely get pummeled at home in MetLife Stadium.
Here's more, via ESPN:
As of 1 p.m. ET, the cheapest list price on the resale market for the game was $15, 70 percent below face value, while the average price was $73.21, according to ticket market aggregator TiqIQ. That's the cheapest ticket to a game at MetLife Stadium, the home for the Jets and New York Giants, since it opened in 2010.
TiqIQ spokesman Chris Matkovich said that more than 4,000 tickets remain on the market, more than double the usual volume this close to game time. As of 1 p.m., on ticket resale site StubHub, there were more than 400 tickets selling for under $25.
"With the way the Jets are playing, Monday night is much more attractive at home than at the game," said Jason Berger, managing partner of New York-based All Shows Ticket Service. "Then consider that we're coming off a long holiday weekend. That makes things even worse."
Fans looking to take advantage of the Jets being 2-9 are in a perfect spot. Tickets to the Coaches Club, which gives the ticket holder an on-field view, are selling for as low as $272. The face value on those tickets is $700, plus at least another $194 in PSL fees.
Unless if the Jets can pull off at least three victories to close out the season, they're in for their worst year record-wise since 2007 when they went 4-12.
A win tonight against the playoff-bound Dolphins could surely give them some confidence.
