The 'Bank want you to sit down. Jags send letters to section asking for fans to be considerate of others.


Quote:Coming from someone who's been to more concerts than I can count, no most are NOT general admission. SOME, have a general admission section. No, general admission isn't there to serve as the designated area for purposes of standing and dancing etc. If you have been to a lot of concerts you would know there is less room in GA than in designated seating and it is for folks who want to be as close to the band/artist as possible. You would also be aware that it is near Impossible to dance around or move about in GA, as you are packed together like sardines. Out of the hundreds of concerts I've been to, consisting of a variety if genres, most at least 3 hours plus, almost everyone stands the entire time and some dance, scream etc, wait for it......IN THEIR ACTUAL SEATS. Never, and I repeat, NEVER, have I nor anyone I know, ever been approached and asked to sit, nor been told that by expressing ourselves with our chosen free will, that we were in "violation" of a thing. As far as "it's not warranted" because "everybody else" is sitting, well apparently that isn't true or we wouldn't be having this discussion. In addition, what is and isn't warranted based solely on how one chooses to use his or her own body, being told to sit or stand isn't up for anyone else to decide. Heck, maybe I was Guy Whimper's only fan, or had a crush on him and wanted to stand every down he was on the field. Again, my prerogative. Or hey, perhaps I just have a bad back from the invasive spine surgery I had and it is MORE COMFORTABLE to simply stand. You decide what's warranted, since you're prohibiting my body to do so for me.
 

Or maybe I paid just as much as you did to see the same game as you did but I am seeing nothing but YOU while you have a perfectly clear view of the game. I guess I should stand up too, right? So the person behind me who paid just as much as I did to see the same game I did can have THEIR view blocked by ME. Unless they stand up... And so on... Hey, why even have seats? Hell, why don't the Jags just save themselves all the money of repairing and replacing seats throughout the season and just do away with them all so we can all just stand the entire game! Then the Jags can feel good about not "telling you what to do with your body" while they watch thousands of fans who paid their money for tickets and keep the Jags profitable year after year file right on out of the stadium and never come back. But hey, the couple hundred fans that insist on standing the entire game will have a great view of the field, and the Mayflower moving trucks when they come to pack up the team and move them to God knows where. But it'll be good to know you got to stand up to watch the game and to hell with what everyone else wants because NOBODY can tell YOU what to do, right? It's all about YOU

10 years ago we had Bob Hope, Johnny Cash, and Steve Jobs..... Please don't die, Kevin Bacon.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
