Giants season-ticket holders better prepare to dig deeper into their wallets just to keep their seats. The Super Bowl champions will slap fans with one-time fees of up to $20,000 for the right to buy season tickets at the team's new Meadowlands stadium starting in 2010, the team announced yesterday.
The fees - known as "personal seat licenses" - will apply to all sections in the 82,500-seat stadium and are the first of their kind charged by a New York sports team, said Giants co-owner John Mara. Personal seat license prices will range from $1,000 to $20,000. Continue
I have been going to Giant games for 40 years and the last 32 I have spent hours in traffic getting in and out of the stadium. I have suffered through countless losing seasons , I have dealt with fans cursing and getting sick in front of my kids, I have SPENT A FORTUNE OF MERCHANDISE and food .I have done whater i could to make sure that I could pay for my tickets every year,I make 45 thousand a year ,so coming up with 3 thousand every year for three tickets has not been easy, but in the end I HAVE SUPPORTED MY TEAM.I was a die hard Giants Fan. So what do the Ginats do to fans like me? They laugh!!! and say sorry suckers Show us the money!!!
I will never pay a dime for anything Giants releated again. This is what rich kids do when they take over there family buisness. they dont know hardship. Look whats happened to this country because of a a spoiled rich kid. The rich have never cared about anything but keeping themselves rich. Screw the Giants ....let them sell the tickets to all there rich friends becauce you know what?...eventually the bottom falls out, the past 8 years is all the proof you need.

The new stadiums in both Dallas and the Meadowlands are a complete waste. Neither stadium is old enough to be replaced. The only reason to replace either is... shear greed! Giants stadium in particular does not have one bad seat! You can see the field completely from every seat. Isn't that what you want in a stadium? The only point is to put into place more, and more expensive vendors! The answer: boycott! Boycott every sponsor and every vendor! Don't drink Pepsi products, drink imported beer! Don't buy any products from the new vendors! Don't but a single Eli jersey! Not one Romo t-shirt! Nothing! Leave them on the shelves! If Jerry Jones, and the Tisch & Mara families want new stadiums, let them save their pennies like the rest of us do when we are buying a house! If your bank or insurance company advertises with either party - change your bank! Change your insurance company! Give to any charity other than NFL charities! Tell them to thank Jerry Jones, d the Mara family, and the Tisch family! Don't support any charity they support! Tell them Jerry and John already took your money! If you go to temple or church with any of them, ask them to leave because they are obviously insincere! Don't give them a dime! Buy your PSL if you can! Don't let them chase you away! Remenber, you may not be rich, but at least your mother is not ashamed of you! You know Jerry's Mom is ashamed of him, and Wellington Mara, the Duke, must be crying in his grave. He would never have allowed this!
So, remeber, go to the games, don;t let them chase you out! Just don;t spend a single dime in the new stadium!
