Quote:Many of us are wondering if our seats will be impacted. Good point. Have they not said what rows/sections will be impacted? I assume the "Honor Rows" are gone. And with removing seats the tarp will be gone. Quote:Good point. Have they not said what rows/sections will be impacted? I assume the "Honor Rows" are gone.

Hopefully it only impacts the areas that are tarped at the top of the section. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Irony is great. Jags get record setting " score" boards.

Quote:We'll know soon. Construction starts soon after the Gator Bowl. Right now, the bowl prediction has Auburn vs Michigan in the Gator Bowl. That would be incredible to get those 2 historical teams here. I don't want Miss State. Quote:Hey, don't shoot the messenger. I'm just repeating what was said. I think it looks nice on TV, anyway...lol. You could always make an away trip and see for yourself. You have been a fan how long? You should probably refrain from giving an opinion on this until you see the stadium first hand. Quote:We'll know soon. Construction starts soon after the Gator Bowl. I would imagine now that the project is funded, those people who are impacted by the upgrades will be notified. I love my seats, and I'm pretty confident mine won't be impacted, and will actually be improved by the changes that are coming. We'll see soon enough. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

It always makes me laugh when people have no clue what they are talking about chime in with info they "heard" from someone else. I for one am excited to see the new changes to the stadium. I personally think the Jags have done a much better job on the Gameday experience this season and there is a lot to see/do for fans that are willing to go the games. If we could just improve the product on the field, we may have something special.

Quote:Yeah, I have been down at the stadium in the offseason before.....down Bay st (the one with the paws painted),,,,,and I agree, there seems to be untapped potential there that could be developed into a bar/ party/ restaurant/ entertainment zone. There is an entertainment district and it's called The Elbow. It includes bars, restaurants, art galleries, music venues and clubs. Burro Bar, Casa Dora, 1904 Music Hall, Dos Gatos, The Florida Theatre, Swagsonville, Northstar Substation and Underbelly. All featuring great music acts or good times on any given night. Also close by are TSI, Mark's, Dive Bar, The Landing and more. This place really comes alive. Anyone who actually goes out Downtown would know this. I'm tired of people saying there's nothing to do in Jacksonville. There is. You just need to go out and do it.
@OnGuardJax
Not to mention the collection of bars in and around the Sports Complex. People would rather complain than go out and enjoy what we are already blessed with...smh...
BTW this is GOOD NEWS for Jax and people are spinning it to be negative because they are uncomfortable with being happy about something.

It's very well beyond what it was in 2002 when I moved to NYC. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
From WOKV on Twitter:
"<b>Stephanie Brown</b> @NewsAndNom <p class="">I'm finding out some new games could be around the corner w/ #EverBank improvements... working on that story now!" <p class=""> <p class=""> <p class=""> <p class="">So, then.
On Wisconsin.
Quote:From WOKV on Twitter: Awesome. Interested to hear what that is. Quote:From WOKV on Twitter: Rick Catlett has been working on trying to secure teams for a neutral site game that is more than just a one time shot similar to the Florida/Georgia game for a while now. They've had some opportunities in the past like the FSU / Alabama game years ago. He was on with one of the local shows recently and made mention of the fact that they are close to announcing something on that front. Plus, they're looking at hosting more events like soccer that draw large crowds.

I personally think the Jags have done a much better job on the Gameday experience this season and there is a lot to see/do for fans that are willing to go the games. If we could just improve the product on the field, we may have something special.There are two things Shad Khan has proven he's much more creative with than Wayne Weaver:
We've seen improvements in the overall quality of entertainment inside the stadium despite a lousy team, and we're seeing the Jaguars picking up several sponsorships that enhance the footprint locally, including snagging a really big deal with the regional Ford dealers. We're seeing players doing more commercials, and getting out into the community more. Clearly, Khan recognizes what he needs to do to help broaden the fan base. Imagine what it will be like when they finally put a winning product on the field? It can only get better. His goal from day 1 has been to make them the hottest ticket in town. Hopefully that includes a winning team. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Quote:Everbank is a world class facility. Why do you say we cannot host these events? The Citrus bowl expects to compete for the BCS after it's 200 million reno and it still will not be the facility that Jax municipal is.The Citrus Bowl is in a much seedier part of town than Everbank is in my opinion. I consider it wasted money to renovate that thing, always worry about parking my car whenever I have been there. Yes, it's improvement, but it's Blaine Gabbert 2012 level improvement. - Pirkster The Home Hypnotist! Media on the Brain Link! Quote:Peyton must store oxygen in that forehead of his.

Can lead to crabs too, but they make mini combs for that..
