Jets Latest STH Survey; What's your Beef?

This has nothing to do with the quality of the product on the field.

They concentrate on things like how you like the silly scoreboard buffoonery (bongo cam? C'mon man), silly installations around the entry plazas (come see the giant Jets letters! yeesh), horrible parking and entry/exit and whether the staff was nice to you (well at least they always are). They do sneak on one or two questions about how you feel about the value of your tickets and whether you'd recommend Jets games to others, but it seems like an afterthought.

I don't mind the mediocrity. I've had a lifetime of it. I expect it to continue for the balance of my lifetime. After all, the team is the St. Louis Browns of the NFL.

I do have significant dissatisfaction as a ticket holder to the point that I do not even want to follow the club anymore. As a lifetime habitual ballpark attendee, the past 6 years (if not every year since 1984) have left an awful taste in my mouth. Not for the play on the field but for the way I've have been treated by the office and the feeling that they reached into my pocket and in spirit, stole my money.

My beef was/is the complete lack of value on the PSL. We get bupkis for our money, not even any club access. They cite the rewards points program as a great benefit but I have yet to see anything I could use them for and they just expire. I also question where there is some consumer law that would protect us from the out and out lies they told while the hard sold the tickets back when the stadium (which looks like a huge overcast day) opened. Generally, I could not find much good to say, but I am 99.44% sure that here is no one in this organization that gives a damn.

I did tell them to keep the insult of the 50 cent pin that they send for attending all 10 games (again). Great reward guys.

So what's your beef, if any? Remember that they do not ask about the quality on the field.

I had tickets from 78 to the strike season around 86 or so. Then I came back the second season of the new stadium thanks to PSL's.......I knew it would be worth nothing but did it anyway. My sales person told the truth so I was not lied too. IN fact we stay in touch even though he works for another team now.

BUT PSL's Stink.

I have never liked NJ old stadium or new I love NY. Shea was the most fun by far.

This stadium just smells corporate but that is what the games is now.

Seats are narrow for the money at almost 6-6 I would think for the money we would get enough room.

Food is bad but I cook so my one hot dog a year is enough.

I got the non Alcohol section which was a winner for me as my kids don't get the ugly drunk jet fans in their face all game. Yes I drink but before the game & if I need a beer I just walk one section away. I was under cover another great feature, The only negative is it is harder the sell tickets for games.

I walked on my tickets two years ago when I could not sell them but I had paid for my PSL's in full so the Jets had no say,

The Loud music stinks too.

Bottom line with late games (I get home at 2:30 on night games) it was not as much fun anymore....the stadium in NJ just does not do it for me.

Positive Parking was OK
Tailgating group I found are great people about 20 to 30
Staff was very nice
New Stadium has better restrooms.

Investment: For less money I joined a Yacht club that I get to use 365 days a year not just 8 Sundays. The Value is just not there......

The biggest thing that I can't get over is paying for pre-season games talk about the NFL putting the screws to us
