Tickets to Sunday’s Jets-Giants game at MetLife Stadium are going for sky-high prices on the secondary market — no surprise given that the teams meet only once every four years in the regular season, that it is an important game for both and that the weather forecast is favorable.
According to TiqIQ.com, which monitors a number of resale sites, the average asking price as of Wednesday morning was $434.01, 34.1 percent higher than the average for Giants home games this season and higher than the $384.63 average for the 2011 meeting, which was a Jets home game.
The lowest asking price as of Wednesday morning was $204.
