Patriots-Giants tickets plentiful on the Internet

I'll admit that I'm not much of an expert on such things but the recent rush by Giants season-ticket holders to dump their tickets for Saturday's Patriots-Giants game seems to be keeping the resale prices down a little.

There's been a lot written about how New York fans are more than willing to pass up the opportunity to watch their team be the patsies in the historic game.

I was just checking StubHub and the vast majority of tickets I saw for the game were priced between $200 and $500. There were some sky-high prices, over $1,000, but not many.  Maybe $250 seems a but pricey for any football game bit I've seen plenty of plain old regular-season games for the real popular teams, Steelers, Packers, Eagles, go for similar amounts (taking into account the location of the seats).

Obviously, this changes minute-by-minute, but you can take a look for yourself.

Anyway, if you have any disposable cash left over from the holidays and want to see history made (or not), that little miracle we all know as the Internet will help get you there.

Bill, hope you had a nice holiday. I am going to that game, as my buddy and I just wanted to see history up the NJ Turnpike. Cost us a little over $400 and change via Ebay, but since I am off until Jan 3rd and have not left town since at all during my sabbatical, this is the chance to do so.

Hope you had a blessed X-mas with family and friends.

Anthony,
When you get back, give us a shout and let us know what it was like. Enjoy the game. And happy holidays to you as well.
