RiotAct Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 anyone get the new stadium survey this morning? Sizing us up as far as our appetite for P$L’s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfanmiamioh Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Just completed it a bit ago. My general sense is the “cheapest” season tickets are going to be more like the most expensive ones now (non club). This is much more in line with current nfl pricing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, speaking strictly as an architect, I’m guessing there won’t be any poles obstructing your view of the field. (And if I recall the poles at the Rockpile came in when they expanded the sideline seating for the AFL. I don’t believe the original stadium had them.)

Im in 109 now, would consider some of the “cheaper” club options depending on the price.

Price of current club seats is probably about my limit though, so I may be “downgrading” depending on what final numbers look like. I have seasons for the Jets at MetLife. I can tell you what the payment options are. For the season tickets and parking the Jets give 3 options. 1. Pay in full by Feb 1 either check or CC 2.Pay over 4 payments starting in Feb but CC only 3.Pay over 12 months starting Feb 1 but CC only As for the PSL fee I get the bill late Sept/early Oct its due Nov 1. My fee is $5,000 per seat ( I have 2 seats). The Jets give 3 options. Pay in one shot check or CC. Most people can't do this. Pay over 10 years or 15 years with check or CC. The Jets do charge interest if you don't pay in one shot. I took the 10 year plan. As for my yearly payment due Nov 1. The Jets give 2 options. 1. Pay in full with check or CC 2. Pay over 4 months starting Nov 1 but CC only. The Bills are probably going to do something similar. You know the Pegula's have already talked to owners who deal with PSL fees like Woody and Chris Johnson. They will work with you because lets face it these prices are expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the survey, the Bills presented 3 options for the PSL.

The Jets and Giants do have an advantage because of the corporate support from NYC. Some of the prices are crazy. My seats are lower level row 3 right behind the goalpost. If you are lower level on the 50 yard line the PSL fees are $25,000 per seat. Who can pay for that. You have to be wealthy or they are corporate seats. $25,000 per seat for a PSL fee is crazy but they do sell. Edited May 6, 2022 by Greg S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people can't or won't ( myself included ) pay $10,000 in one shot. They do allow that to be paid over multiple years. The costs are to high for the average person.

And about halfway through I decided to hit back a few times and took screen shots of every single option for the reserved seatings. If you or anyone else has any questions, let me know. It appears to be a ton of options. Still sorting through each screen shot I took. I think some are in there multiple times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it and went from something like 24% done to 79% after the ticket question. But it wouldn't let me put in my zip code because mine starts with 0 and they want one from 10000-99999.

Would like to go back and see what the pricing on the suites/clubs would be. They had clubs and another option that seemed like it wasn’t a club seat but was a little nicer than regular seating. overall though, if your used to club seats in the stadium now. Under cover of awning, protected by weather, heated, it looks like you can get similar tickets or even pay less for regular seating in the Mezzanine level. I’m sore the experience will be a little different than the clubs they will offer, but with a new stadium, I’m sure the experience will be better than what you get with the clubs now.

But why would Populous move in for a temporary project that they don’t even need to be here to complete. pretty sure that Turner Construction received the bid to actually build the stadium that Populous designs.
