That was my number on the Giants’ season ticket wait list, and I finally got the email a few weeks ago informing me that I was next in line to purchase season tickets. Amazingly, on the list since only 2001, I am now officially a New York Football Giants season ticket holder.<\/p>\n
I had speculated<\/a> when PSL’s were first introduced by the Giants last June, I would probably need about 15-20% of current season ticket holders to decline on a PSL to actually have a shot. That estimate has been shattered. Early sales figures had fans renewing in the 95th percentile, but as the affordable upper tier and mezz filled, sales hit a snag. Apparently, wait list members in the 20,000’s are getting the call for seats. Certainly the concept a personal seat license, and even more so the current economy, have played a large part in the Giants needing to reach deep into the wait list.<\/p>\n At $5K a pop, I purchased two seats. The only area left in the stadium remotely affordable is called Field 3, or endzone seating (fingers crossed for coffin corners). A bit steep in price, I’m looking at it as an investment, as selling the PSL for a profit in the future is always an alternative. But the chance to have my very own tickets and be part of a unique club, as well as helping to open a brand new stadium in 2010, was just too tempting to pass up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" That was my number on the Giants’ season ticket wait list, and I finally got the email a few weeks ago informing me that I was next in line to purchase season tickets.
