22. Jacksonville Has Fans?
The Jacksonville Jaguars are one of the least polarizing franchises in the NFL. Nobody really cares about them and it would be no surprise if the franchise abandoned the city. However, even their fans – yes they have some – can be awful to deal with. Or maybe, like everybody else, they just have a special hatred for Pats’ fans. One New England supporter revealed that his worst horror experience as an away fan was in Florida.
It was Christmas Eve in 2006 when the Jags and the Pats met in the AFC Championship Game. Jacksonville QB David Garrard fumbled to hand the game to New England. In the words of the Pats’ fan, “when Garrard fumbled toward the end of the game to clinch it for us, we started celebrating. We got showered in beer, had stuff thrown at us, curses. It was unpleasant.” To be fair, they probably deserved it.
