Like @Noellersaid, True North needs to create a vibe that the Jets are the place to be on game days. I think they'll figure it out, they should have done this 5 years ago. I choose to support both the Jets and the Bombers. Not having an NHL team for 15 years, made me realize what we lost. Regardless what you think of true north or the Jets, I always want to be in a city that has both the CFL and NHL.

As soon as I get back home full time I'll definitely be spending money on going to Jets games. If I can get in on a group, I might even go in on some seasons.... captaincanuck12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We moved from a group to a mini pack last year (rest of the group didn't want to renew). They are way more convenient. Seems to me groups are dying out with demand not there and mini packs weren't originally available when they came back with demand being what it was. We took the weekend pack, which is more expensive games. We are close to center ice, upper deck, and pay $1000 per seat (after tax) for 11 games .

Goalie Posted October 19, 2023 Report Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) I ain't spending 200$ for me and my kid on a school night. I'll gladly waste 1000$ a year on Jets tix for me and my kid but Not during the school week Prices btw are the biggest problem Groceries rent gas Jets Which is more important Also west cost teams don't draw here. LA is boring team Edited October 19, 2023 by Goalie Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted October 19, 2023 Report Share Posted October 19, 2023 thing is I'd love to go to a Jets game again (it's been almost 8 years since I last went) but I feel like the only way that's possible is if my ass mysteriously shrinks because I went to a Moose game during the 2018 playoffs and I wasn't comfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure of it. The first 3 years the Jets were back there was a palpable organic party vibe in the arena. People were just happy to have the team back. There were the random chants that would source up from the crowd, there was electricity in the air when you were there, it was a fun place to be even without the team winning. That has slowly declined since then. The Jets now need to work to bring that back as it isn't just "happening" on its own anymore.

The problem is is that the stands are filled with the away team's fans. Edited October 20, 2023 by captaincanuck12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
