You have to remember stadiums are used for more than just football. It a concert setting, it makes a lot of seats much more marketable.

Good point. But for football games I'd find them to be a distraction.

Yeah, I'm not getting it other than the novelty of saying they have double-sided video boards.

What's the advantage?

Twice as much room for advertising? Maybe run ads on the inside and the game on the outside? Just spitballing...

Oh, I see you already gave my answer.

The Jags should get them and perhaps put some porn on when we're down by 10+ points. We could just stay longer at our tailgate and come in at the start of the 2nd quarter. At least everyone wouldn't leave at halftime or at the end of the 3rd quarter like they usually do.

Or just play a replay of a game we won, and pretend the game on the field is not happening.

1.  Ownership assures fans the new boards are all about providing an "enhanced" gameday experience.
2.  Ownership announces a "minimal" increase in ticket prices to help support the cost of this new "enhanced" experience.
3. Ownership assures advertisers the new videoboards now make their products visible from everywhere in the stadium, larger than life.
4.  Ownership announces a ''minimal" increase in ad costs for the "enhanced'' visibility of these new display surfaces.

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.
