Actually it has been three years since the Jags have had sponsors or local TV buy tickets to create a sellout. New Jags front office didn't want to create a fan base of sit at home and watch the game...see Chiefs.
The Jags and Rams are the only two teams to be honest and say they can't sell the tickets. Of course, both teams are looking to move and this helps the cause.
