<div align="center"> I'm going to guess that these upper limits are for court-side seats; still, that's a pretty funny offer. New Jersians looooove highways. </div>
Where do they get the money for this? Unless they start drilling here gas is going to climb over 4.00 a barrel everywhere in the country and stay there for the forseeable future...or until they start drilling.
Everyone's doing this.. Mostly car companies... Dodge & Ford so far.. but this is the first time i heard a professional team does it. Kinda cool I guess.
It's all snake oil salesmanship. That's probably the discount they would've given you anyway for season tickets. Now they tie it to gas to give it more emotional impact. Like the other day I saw a car dealership offering dscounts tied to the federal tax rebates. If you got at check for $1,200 they would give you $3,600 off a car. They would've given the $2,400 rebate anyway. That plus your $1,200 rebate is the $3,600. All car companies have rebate incentives to move cars that are just sitting around. I'm sure some people went "oh wow, I can get $3,600 off a car!".

Wow, look at the prospects they have up. Westbrook, Randolph, Rush, Gallinari (correct me if I'm wrong with any of those). Interesting.

Sometimes the discount is even less than the usual. This Nets one is only a 10% discount. I thought their normal discounts tended to be higher than that. It's a bit of an emotional deception.
