A spokesperson for Governor Chris Christie (R-NJ) confirms that Jerry Jones, owner of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, paid for the private jet that flew Christie from New Jersey to Texas to watch the National Football League playoff game between the Cowboys and the Detroit Lions on Sunday. The value of the round trip chartered flight was estimated to exceed $10,000. The value of the seat to watch the game in Jones’s private suite was estimated at $6,000. Both the round trip flight and Christie’s seat in Jones’s private suite during the game are apparently considered personal gifts from Jones to Christie.
