So, I didn't know this video existed. It came up as a recommendation because I've watched so many Jags videos. WJXT researched and put together this hour-long documentary of how Jacksonville got an NFL team and it came out on that station back around 2017 or so. 

I have only watched the first two minutes so I can't say anything about it but I wanted to share it here. All I can say so far is, WOW. Enjoy!

Thanks for digging this out. I'll definitely give it a whirl when I get a spare evening.

"If you always do what you've always done, You'll always get what you always got"

I've seen it. Brought back some memories. I remember hitting redial over and over again to get my season tickets. Finally got through on the second day.

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

You had to call in for them. Wow. Yeah, this was before the internet took off. My dad got season tickets at some point. I was stationed at Fort Sam Houston so I wasn't getting them. Told my dad I'd go with him when I was in town.

Oh yeah definitely. The Internet was around sort of but you didn't buy tickets that way. Very old school. You gotta remember that was in 93, two years before the Jags took the field. Good times.

I went to The Avenues and stood in line.

Pretty cool seeing all of that history. Watched Boselli's story after that. Was very bittersweet for me. Seeing how much everybody has aged. Wayne, Tom.

It's sad but it's also a great legacy and key cornerstone that was established early here in Jacksonville. Seeing the old local crew members I watched in the early 90s, etc.

It's just all business. Tough love in this sport. I do not envy some of these decisions these people have had to make over the years.

But, man am I greatful for the season ticket holders that kept the culture going and strong and through the thick of it all.

"What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."

That brought back some memories.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.
 

There was an article I found which was like a 45 min read that goes through all the foundation work Wayne had to do to even be considered. It was a well written article and being not a local gives alot of insight to the process.

Sorry for the ads the only version I could find.

I was as well. Even then, Fisher's insufferable mug was ....insufferable.
