Jacksonville Jaguars Wary of Steelers Fans Buying Tickets

Jacksonville First Coast News (ABC 25 and NBC 12) is also worried about Steelers fans:

"Any Jags fan can tell you how frustrating it is to see a sea of yellow and black instead of teal when the Pittsburgh Steelers come to town. But if some season tickets aren't renewed, those tickets will go to Steelers fans, or any other team scheduled to play here.

...When the Steelers came to town in 2004, Alltel Stadium was their homeaway from home. Black and gold were everywhere."


So far, only 60% of Jacksonville's 2005 season ticket holders have renewed for the 2006 season. This suggests that plenty of Steelers Jaguars tickets will be in the marketplace for Steelers fans, including face value tickets directly from the Jaguars.
