I like the location in Jacksonville but it would be nice if the stadium had the same capacity as our stadium; EverBank Field = 77k, Sanford Stadium = 92k





The 77,000 is the NFL configuration. For the WLOCP they take the tarps off the upper level in the EZ's & add temp bleachers...

The capacity for the WLOCP is 84,644....

Not 92,000 but a lot more than 77,000.

We have been playing consistently in Jacksonville for the better part of a century. The 1st game in Jacksonville was in 1915. It's not gonna change cause you're bitching like a little girl. Atlanta is a shithole....cry a little more


If Atlanta is a shite hole what exactly is Jacksonville? I mean I understand your hate for Georgia and hate for the Dawgs but don't be ridiculous. If you can't have a good time and find nice shopping, dining, and night life in Atlanta you just don't know where to go. I'm for keeping it in Jax by the way.

Downtown Atlanta gets very ghetto very fast. You can be in an upscale neighborhood one block, and surrounded by crackheads the next block. While Jacksonville is a shithole, I was referencing the tailgating & areas around the stadium. No doubt Atlanta has better shopping, restaurants, hotels, etc.....but for the football game purposes, it's a shithole. Like I said earlier, no beach, no landing, no boats/water, etc

It seems like the Uga fans are split on this issue and the Gator fans are united. Georgia fans should probably convince their own on the Uga board before bringing it here. The fans who actually go to the game probably overwhelmingly want it to stay in Jax. Attendence is never an issue.

No, UGA fans aren't split. There's 2 or 3 vocal posters on every UGA board who spout this. It's easy 95% to 5% on this. This game will never leave Jax...

I propose building a 80,000 seat stadium in Fitzgerald, GA (population: 9,200) as it is the geographic middle point between the two schools.
