Steelers Fans In Jacksonville, News At 11...



First Coast News reports that despite having 5,000 season ticket holders who have not renewed their season tickets this year, the Jacksonville Jaguars are closing in on selling out their allotment of season tickets and are close to instituting a waiting list for season tickets.

Watch the First Coast News Report. The canned video consists largely of Steelers fans at Alltel Stadium the last time the Steelers came to town. And the Jaguars seem as relieved that the scene might not be repeated this time around when the Steelers meet the Jaguars on September 18 (Steelers Jaguars tickets) as they are that their stadium may be sold out for the year.

In addition to the September 18, Monday night game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Jaguars home schedule features the Cowboys, Patriots and Colts.

My take? There will be plenty of Steelers fans there. Tickets on the secondary market can be had for as little as $95, which is low compared to just about every other Steelers game this year.
