    Hi All,
    I have some friends visiting New York in December and they are keen to see a Jets game live. They follow the Geelong Footy Club pretty seriously over here and therefore have a "connection" with Ben Graham. There is my friend, his wife and 3 kids (youngest will be about 13yo)

    I have been bullshitting to him about the "great people" I have met through this Board and it has really set him off wanting to get the full "Jets experience"

    They will only be in NY for the Buffalo Bills game on the 10th December.

    So, a couple of questions:
    1) How hard would it be to get 5 tickets?
    2) Where is the best place to get them (online obviously), if available
    3) How far in advance do they go on sale?
    4) How would they hook up with someone from here for a tailgate session? (seems to me that this is one of the most important parts of the experience and I think they would be pretty good company (I HOPE))
    5) Is it vaguely "safe" to sit anywhere? They may NOT appreciate being hit by missiles, beer etc

    Any help would be much appreciated

    I would try eBay. And they shouldnt have to worry about getting hit with anything unless they are wearing blue and red

    I would suggest checking out the ticket thread here. I know there are a few posters with some season tix.

    A Bills-Jets December game? You needn't worry about ticket prices, they'll probably be giving them away.

    Frank, your friends would be welcomed with open arms at my tailgate, just ping me when it gets closer and I could give you the details. As for tickets, I usually can get extras but I'm not sure about 5 together, but as others have mentioned if the team is not doing well it would probably be easy enough to get them scalping the day of the game.....

    By that time of year the owner of the tix will be happy to just sell them for 1/10 face value or less for that matter

    Appreciate the offer and will pass it on to them when the time is closer.

    They are in England at the moment so I will point him to this site to investigate tickets a bit closer to the dat.

    Cheers :beer:
