Why not play in Jacksonville?

[Dolfan4life]

They are out of town. It would still be more of home game for Miami then Pitt. Many of the ticket holders could still go. It could be played on Sunday.

Makes some sense to me.

Have you seen the path of the storm? Jacksonville is more likely to get a direct hit than Miami.

Isn't the hurricane threatning most of florida?

I recommeneded that for the Tenn game. I think the prooblem would be for the fans coming in town that have bought tickets to the game. They have already scheduled flights to fly into Miami.

Maybe I am partial because I want to see the game live more then anyone. But to ask Miami, Broward, and Palm Beach to drive up to Jax, even if it was free and clear, you're not going to get many people. Now, you have to go and refund 70,000 tickets plus, at an average of 55 dollars per ticket. Now you are going to lose 20 dollars parking, time 18,000 cars plus, and concession, advertising. All of that, you're fan base who are your customers are left without the product they expected to see. Realistically, if this makes more sense then playing Miami, I will eat my words.

Jeasus hit it right on. I am coming from NY into Lauderdale.

I still feel like this whole thing might miss Florida. At least I am really hoping so.
