    This is my #1 claim. Jets fans are more passionate than Giants fans

    Jets outpacing Giants on secondary ticket market

    The Jets are the Kings of New York Football … at least at the box office.
    The Jets are outpacing the Giants, their MetLife Stadium co-tenants, in the secondary ticket market as the new season begins.

    It is not a surprise that the Jets have become the hottest ticket in town with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback and Super Bowl expectations in the air.

    The lowest price for the Jets opener on Monday night against the Bills is $178, according to Ticketmaster.
    The lowest price for the Giants’ opener on Sunday night against the Cowboys is $140.
    If you look at the most expensive tickets in the stadium, in the “Coaches Club,” the Jets’ tickets are going for $1,500 to the Giants’ $1,000.

    The Jets’ tickets are going for a higher price than the Giants in the teams’ first three home games.

    The fourth game for the Giants is against the Jets and is going for $225, the highest number for the Giants in the first four games. The Jets’ lowest prices for their first four games are $178 for the Bills game, $150 for the Patriots game, $185 for the Chiefs game and $179 for the Eagles game.

    The Giants’ lowest prices are $140 for the Cowboys game, $90 for the Seahawks game, $100 for the Commanders game and $225 for the Jets game.

    The first week is the best comparison since both teams are playing division rivals in night games.
    Traditionally, you would expect the Cowboys to drive the price higher because their fans usually pack opposing stadiums. But the Rodgers effect seems to have given the Jets an edge.

    The teams have two common home opponents — the Patriots and Eagles. The Jets’ cheapest ticket prices are higher for both of those games. The New England game is $179-$108 in favor of the Jets and the Eagles game is $150-100 for the Jets.

    The Jets have overshadowed their crosstown rivals this offseason and that shows in the ticket prices. Now, they’ll try to do it on the field.

    Cool article! But bad in the sense that I won't be able to afford too many home games this year....or even 'away games' as the Jets drive up those tic prices too!

    It's ridiculous how expensive it is on the 2nd market. We paid $211 for Jets Bills MNF and I am looking at going to the Eagles game. It's $180 already.

    Depends. The self-deprecating Jets fan, non of which post here, would pick Jones.

    I can’t fathom anyone but a die-hard Giants fan paying more than 25 cents to watch Daniel Jones play but to each, his/her own I guess

    He's better that any QB the Jets have had since the one magical year or Fitzpatrick.

    Oh I agree. But he's been more exciting than anything the green and white has brought to the table, plus the Giants went to the playoffs last year.

    Mark Sanchez started and won playoff games against three no doubter hall of famers, plus Carson Palmer.

    Yeah, he’s not Johnny Unitas but he’s not Daniel Jones either. Put some respect on the man’s name.

    Plus he was guapo as fuck.

    Pleas don't confuse me for a Jones supporter. I'm just saying that given that the Giants play in the weaker conference and Jones isn't God awful, I would feel tepid enthusiasm if I rooted for those scumbags.

    Data point

    Giants parking pass for tonight was $35 last night.

    Jets parking pass for tomorrow night is $65 tonight.

    Get in ticket price for Giants against Cowboys is cheaper as of this morning to Jets get in price against Bills.

    Jets are the flavor of the town for 2023. Giants can take a back seat.

    Be more clear. What will happen in a few weeks? I say this patter will continue rest of the year.
