Right there were no buyouts in 2009 and only 1 home game wasn’t blacked out. We don’t really know how many times since then they’ve done the buyouts because that’s not published. We know at least a couple of times they came close to being blacked out but right before the deadline enough tickets were sold, sold to who... And as for this year who knows, they aren’t publishing sales data.

Ah see finally you admit the truth. That could have been the entire conversation. You said they didn’t have a problem selling tickets, I pointed out that they did, then you threw out a bunch of red herrings and now finally admitted, yeah have problems selling tickets. Other teams don’t matter for this conversation, that’s just the red herring again.

Yes, I believe I mentioned that the Jags haven’t had a blackout in two years - which goes back to the last game of 2009. And since then, they’ve had a strong community outreach - lead by Tony Boselli. In fact, Boselli’s group was formed during that horrific 2009 season, and its original goal was to sell out that last game - against the Colts. They did that, and expanded their support.

What does it matter if the Jags need last minute sales to lift the blackout? That’s a lot better than the half a dozen teams who’ve had blackouts.

And yes, the Jags have published their ticket sales. As of July, they were ahead of last year’s pace.
