Wow....so it's not a neutral site by any stretch of the imagination. Are the tickets evenly distributed between the schools like they are for the RRS?




It is neutral. Everybody gets the same amount of tickets and there is as many Georgia fans if more than Gators on the streets. South Georgia is UGA central.

Yes. Half the stadium is a glorious orange and blue while the other half is a hideous red and black.


I can't take credit for this idea, but it is genius. If UGA wants to play in the Georgia Dome, say ok, we are still playing in Jax and we will give you the same amount of tickets you give us at the Dome and the difference 15k will go to Gator fans. I wonder how happy UGA fans would be if we did that? Our AD has stated numerous times will play in Jax no matter what UGA does.

I do find it funny that Dooley flat out admits the reason for the talks is because they can't win. The vast majority of Gator Fans live south of Gainesville, and I would venture to guess a majority of Georgia fans don't live in Athens. So as far as fanbases go it is a pretty neutral site.

Speaking of that, isn't VSU building a new stadium? Play it there


and remind the rest of Georgia how big of a shithole the southern part of the state is
