It was a fantastic experience. We stayed at the Omni at the Landing. The Landing is on the St Johns River and has plenty to do- Bars, restaurants, etc etc. There was a water taxi that comes to the Landing and takes fans right to the stadium. I dont know if thats an option now but it was super cool- drinks were allowed. Once at the stadium, there was a nice outside area that had beer/food and a band playing- again, alot of fun. On a side note, at the Omni I met Paul McGuire, Joe Theisman, and Suzy Kolber- all were super nice! Hope this helps- Go Bills! That’s where my brother is staying. I didn’t get in. We are staying like 9 miles away so will just Uber in

Day trips to the ocean or the Gulf or sit by the pool (if its open) YELP might be a place to start or just Google Jacksonville Have fun BTW Beware, yes it’s Florida but highs in the 40’s on Saturday and a bit warmer Sunday. 4 minutes ago, billsfan_34 said: Uber is a smart choice!

My son spent a couple years at UNF. There are some very nice parts of Jacksonville......and then there are the other parts. Like most places I guess, but I occasionally wandered into places I wished I hadn’t before I knew what had happened.

We had a condo in St Augustine (well, just over the bridge on the beach) for years (sold it this past spring), and it is one of my very favorite small cities in the US! It is also the oldest city in the United States. You could do the touristy Ripley's things (meh), visit the fort, sit around and drink Sangria while watching the people walk by on St George Street in Old Town, go to the alligator farm (SUPER creepy!), and more How far is st Augustine away?

DrDawkinstein Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Just realized Lot X is on the water... Gonna be some unlucky Jags fans that get tossed into the drink before the game! And the goalposts are going in after we win too!

Depending on where you are coming from (the airport, the stadium, south of Jacksonville) between 45 minutes and an hour 15. Traffic moves on 95, although it is slower if you are heading onto 295 to 1 and down. Edited January 2, 2018 by Buffalo_Gal

I have an emergency fall back - my mom's college roommate down there, and my former sister in laws brother (we are all still sort of family). Still planning on either using Tinder as AirBnB like I did in Atlanta or bringing a friend from Florida not far away
The Guy In Pants Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 You could drag race with Dareus or stand outside Doug Marrones house and flick boogars on his windows.... Obviously.

We couldn’t get down there but my buddy Jesse and his sister (you met them in Atlanta) are staying at the same place as us. We are going to come down for the party Saturday night and then a guy in our group here has a big tailgate planned for Sunday.

That’s where the Bills fan party is supposed to be Saturday but not sure it can handle the crowd. That seems to be the plan now. 1

Beyond gator wrestling and marrying your cousin, I'm told there isn't much to do in that town. 1
