I know alot of us are planning on this one. I got Section 240 Bills side. We usually make a weekend out of it and stay in Amelia or Fernandina Beach. Last game I saw there we had Bledsoe.

 

If you are just going to say you hate Florida. Please dont waste our time.

 

Who else is going ? What are your plans ?

I'm planning on it. I have to ask my wife first. 😒 I love going to Jacksonville for a Bills game.  I was at that Bledsoe game as well. He lit it up that game to Moulds and Price that day. It was also the first game Bryan Leftwhich got some snaps as a pro if I remember right.

Going to be in our southern home in Ft Myers.   6 hr drive up to Jacksonville, but, considering it.  Have to talk the wife into it as she is a fan also.  Anybody know how the parking is at the stadium?  Where is the stadium anyhow, have driven through 'ville' a couple of times, but never stopped.

Planning on going. Hope to see more blue than teal.

 

That's a pretty low bar to clear in Jacksonville,  You're apt to see more Florida Gators blue than Jaggywires Teal to begin with

It's not ideal. Stadium is downtown and there are lots that surround the stadium.

I went to the game the last time Bills traveled to Jacksonville.  Not much of a tailgate scene and parking is scattered all over with a lot of people parking in multilevel parking garages.  There were quite a few people being pedaled to stadium in bicycle-pulled rickshaws, which was pretty funny.  Can you imagine that in Orchard Park?  Back then they had huge sections covered with tarps and there was no one in the stadium.  Good Bills win in front of mostly Bills fans.  We had tickets in the lower end zone but moved and sat in a mostly empty section at the 50 yd line about 20 rows up and we could literally put our feet on the empty seats in front of us.  Expect it will be a little different this year with Lawrence at QB.

Thinking about it.  My sister lives in Jacksonville Beach.  Pretty good brew / pub (Intuition Ale Works) and distillery (Manifest) right near the stadium.

 

Word of warning - Jacksonville is the largest city in the US (?) by square area.  In other words, it is spread out big time.  Beaches are 30 - 45 min from the stadium.
