I was lucky enough to win an auction or a pair of tickets to the Jets/Patriots game a few weeks ago. I won them in a charity auction for the Make a Wish Foundation. They were 3 rows behind the Pats bench at about the 35 yard line and included a parking pass. I won them for $400 dollars.
I'm a Pats fan and have been since the late 60's. That was the closet, and by far, the best seats I ever had.It was a great experience. I got a couple of autos (Bourne, Pop Douglas), beautiful weather, great seats and a perfect outcome when the Patriots scored with 22 seconds left to win the game to beat our hated rival. I expected the Pats to get smoked quite honestly. This was a bucket list item for me. I'm starting to do them now that I'm getting older (66 tomorrow).
I'm really enjoying the Jets meltdown this season because my Pats pretty much suck, but getting better. I look at the Jets the same way I look at the Yankees. If my team can't win I want those teams to do horrible.
