I had read that the new tax cut law for 2018 eliminated the Business tax deductibility for Sports Events. I suspect this will have a negative effect on all ticket sales going forward (single games and season tickets). Perhaps the Jets will offer more discounts, etc. to boost sagging sales. PSL owners are stuck. Have to pay for the tix or loose the PSL. Could be a good thing...frankly sucks losing the write off!
Good. I hate sitting next to people who got tickets from a company and come at 1:30, get up to eat and drink 8 times, and spend the other time talking and looking at there phone. I would rather the place be half empty but with Jet fans then these Wall streeters .
Sounds like a really big deal... another blow for people who ponied up for PSLs, either directly or indirectly. If companies stop buying season tickets, then more PSLs become available. Hopefully, they reduce prices even more.
My friend paid for PSL but hasn't paid for season tix in 2 years and hasn't lose his seat. I believe you owe those seat for good but don't don't have to use them.
I'm sorry that you lose the deduction, but don't think there ever should have been such a tax deduction. As Wah said, hopefully, it will mean that the Jets have to reduce ticket prices, and that there will be more "fans" in the seats, and less corporate fat cats who really don't care about the Jets one way or another. I want a true home field advantage and want the stadium to rock and be raucous, not quiet as it has often been, with fans not even staying in their seats, but hanging around on the mezzanine and stairwells/ramps.
You're thinking of @Brook! and his fellow goat-bangers yelling ."meşikê xwe bide me!". at the women from the Gate D ramp .(pre-Metlife). .
Sec 314 never missed a breast at halftime. Just the start of the 3rd qtr. Man, did we smoke a lot of xxxx at halftime.
I'd love to know how many companies pony up for football tickets in the stands. I've worked for companies that entertain clients at sporting events and it's hockey, basketball and weeksday baseball games. Clients weren't really interested in hanging with us on their off time during weekends. In thirty years of being a ST holder I don't ever remember people sitting around us who were being entertained or got tickets as a corp gift
Ah, the spiral ramps.... I wonder, had the architects of Giants Stadium had any clue as to what would take place on them would they have scrapped the design? I remember being bummed when the NFL shortened halftime. It threw off our timing.
And they attacked the ramps with State police and our halftime blew up and so the descent of being a season ticket holder began. Right there is when it started to go downhill.
