I've already reached out to Alexa on her cruise to ask........if the game is still on as planned and if the "X" parking lot is flooded from the river rising can we move the fundraiser events to another spot?

Fun stuff:

We are going to have a donated backdrop/banner made specifically for the Jacksonville events. We will have a red carpet for people to stand on in front of the backdrop and fans can take pictures to memorialize their trip to the Jacksonville game and Arrowhead South events.

At the Arrowhead South Jacksonville events we are going raffle off this one of a kind customized Chiefs cooler. Hand built with all top quality wood. $5 a ticket or 5 entries for $20. Proceeds to benefit the Patrick Mahomes foundation.

Update 08/31

I've already reached out to Alexa on her cruise to ask........if the game is still on as planned and if the "X" parking lot is flooded from the river rising can we move the fundraiser events to another spot?

Current total of tickets sold:

Saturday Night VIP fundraiser....170 tickets sold.

Sunday pre-game tailgate ....... 416 tickets sold.

From the fan who booked the original Arrowhead South group at the Hyatt Cheri Jones:

“To my knowledge they never closed our group rates. If your reservation is affected by the Sept 6th closure (only 2 people to my knowledge booked on Friday night) go online and rebook for Sat or Sun, or Sat/Sun
https://www.hyatt.com/en-US/group-booking/JAXRJ/G-KCCB
otherwise we are all good.”


We already have plan B, C and D in place for inclement weather. If needed, We will try to adapt those to the remnants of Dorian.


The Jaguars are our partners for these events. We have direct line communication to the leadership. They return our calls swiftly. If needed, We will get front of the line service.

The Jaguars are working with Arrowhead South to make all this happen. We are preceding with all events, phone calls etc with the Jags this week. The Jags think the game is on. Logistical details need to be finalized.

The caterers, BBQ teams, flights, hotel rooms, security, DJ, electric, etc...., are all contracted and we are ready to finalize the details. We had a local BBQ restaurant contact me just today and donate all the side dishes(cole slaw, Baked Beans and Brunswick stew) to help out with this event. The meat has been shipped to the warehouse.

As of 08/01 we have sold 626 tickets - 438 for Tailgate on Sunday, with a max of 700, and 188 for Saturday, VIP - with a max of 300

Jags front office: The game is on. Not being moved, delayed or changed to Monday. Party on!

Jacksonville is getting the worse that will come there way at this very moment, it will be in the Carolinas by Friday.

So, in other words, you good!

Who built this? I need it! Getting pumped for the game. I saw Chris Simms say this is a preview of the AFC championship game. Holy cow.

Here in Jax the storm is almost a non event. I'm sitting in my garage with the door open and it's a little wind and a little rain. Supposed to be sunny Sunday.

it was custom built by someone in Springfield, Mo. for the event planners late husband. Never used. transported to KC to the home of the CEO of the KC BBQ society over the weekend. It’s on the road to Florida with some of the BBQ gear.

And BTW, answer your damn email. :rolleyes:

in the thick of the storm right now. 18mph winds, gusts to 30mph. Less winds than an average afternoon thunderstorm down here.

Rumor has it game will be moved to Nassau in the Bahamas. :D

A non-event over here in Orange Park. I actually worked from home all day and got mostly occasional rain and light winds.

Not complaining but there was a lot of to-do for not much happening.

:cuss: Clay lite :)

Damn straight! PBJ

Not just seeing all the volunteer work I’ve done go to waste but did some math yesterday and we have/had 41 volunteers give some of their time or sweat equity to make these weekend events happen.
