An allotment of tickets was set aside to conduct a random drawing for all 2013 Jets Season Ticket Holders in good standing. Additional tickets are being distributed to players, coaches, staff, business partners, and other key stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, your account was not selected in this drawing.<\/p>\n<p>We wish that we had enough Super Bowl tickets to accommodate all of our loyal Season Ticket Holders. Unfortunately, the League&#8217;s allocation of tickets makes that impossible.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to seeing you back at MetLife Stadium next season, and hope to see you in the coming months at other events and exclusive Season Ticket Holder opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<br \/>\nThe New York Jets<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At least the Jets formally acknowledged that my account is in good standing. \u00a0Let us know if you were also a <a href=\"http:\/\/forums.jetnation.com\/topic\/114139-super-bowl-lottery-loser\/\">Super Bowl Lottery loser<\/a>.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/metlife.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18619\" alt=\"Metlife Stadium\" src=\"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/metlife.jpg\" width=\"540\" height=\"303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/metlife.jpg 540w, https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/metlife-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I joined a pretty exclusive club yesterday. \u00a0I became a member of the Super Bowl Ticket Loser Club. \u00a0That is right, I am a season ticket holder and I was officially notified that I did not win the right to buy one of the few tickets the Jets were allowed to sell to the Super [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":18619,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[6,1337],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-23722","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-featured-editorials","8":"category-home-slider"},"acf":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/metlife.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/peLffi-6aC","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23722"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23722\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":58856,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23722\/revisions\/58856"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18619"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miletestsite.com\/jets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
