You can write a check... You don't have to rope everyone else in who may certainly have little to no interest in the Jags. How much are you willing to pay? I'm sure Shad or the city of Jacksonville will take your money.

Let's just hypothetically say that I'm willing to pay $5,000.  That alone is not enough to do anything (kind of like contributing $20,000 to the Libertarian Party during an election).  That's why I'm including all of the counties that have beneficially value from the Jags being in Jacksonville.  It helps property values, business expansion and other aspects of the City.   Just look at Charleston and Birmingham.  They are cute and everything but Jacksonville has so much more beneficial value then do the other 2 cities I noted.  To make an impact, you need the entire population to in "all in" with regard to financial contributions.  If they do it based on property tax, than the contribution could be assessed more aligned with one's net worth.
