So why are Florida fans so adamant about it being help in JAX outside of tradition


So I don’t know if this is for sure.. but I do know that one of the largest UGA booster clubs is in Jacksonville and I think the largest UF booster club is there as well….

The distance brought up does not affect the players. It’s the same time of travel., 1 by air , 1 by bus…. So the distance doesn’t matter.. the fact that some fans from Atlanta have to travel, I could literally care less about.. the game is sold out every year.. so there must be fans who don’t mind it.. the proximity of the schools to Jacksonville is a. Moot point.

Well...not entirely true. By the time you load them on a bus, off a bus and onto an aircraft, off the aircraft then the logistics of loading and loading buses and on and off an aircraft, then on and off buses again...you'll just have to trust me. I worked at the Baton Rouge airport for 3 1/2 years and we used to see the LSU football team fly out and in, and it is not as simple as walking onto an airplane and walking off. I am not saying that it is some deal breaking thing, but there is more to it than flight time and driving time.
