Jets ticket sales soar with Favre
If you're a Jet fan hoping for tickets to go see Broadway Brett and Gang Green, you might want to consider Saturday's preseason game against Washington, because apparently Favre Fever is making the entire regular-season slate both a tough ticket and a pricy one. Before the trade, Gang Green ticket sales were ranked a sorry 22nd among all NFL teams in terms of dollar value. The Brett Favre deal shot them all the way up to - in a clear case of cosmic football irony - No. 4, behind only the Chargers, Redskins and top-selling Cowboys. According to Reebok, about 60,000 Favre Jets jersey's have already been sold, the top figure in the league. The company said his Jets jersey is outselling Favre's Packers jersey and Tom Brady's Patriots jersey.

What exactly does this mean "among all NFL teams in terms of dollar value"....what is value? The Price? No way did the Jets "all of a sudden" just boost the price.... or did they?

Back up the wagon, those " long time Jet fans" are back.....for a while. You have to remember that this is a franchise that has only two retired jerseys, Namath and Maynard. And that may be two too many...

The Jets have a 7 year waiting list for tickets. Where are these tickets coming from or are they checking resale sites like Stub Hub?

Poor Jets fans, they must think Favre will bring back the glory days of Joe Namath.
I wish them a safe landing when they all come back to Earth. ;)

Not sure how this ranking works... I've always heard that Green Bay tickets were 20+ year long waiting lists. And I am pretty sure you will be able to find Cowboys tickets for free when they open that new stadium that holds 8 billion people
