Alright, so ya wanna know if them Jacksonville fellas are stayin’ in London? Well, lemme tell ya what I heard, and it ain’t always easy for an old woman like me to keep up with all this fancy sports stuff.
First off, them Jaguars, that’s the football team, right? They went over to London, England. Big city, lots of folks, nothin’ like our little town, that’s for sure. Anyways, they went over there to play some games.
Them Jaguars and London Town
Now, I heard tell they made some kinda deal, a “contract” they called it, to play games in London for a few years. Started back in 2022, I think. Seems like the man who owns the team, Mr. Khan, he likes that London place. He’s got another team over there too, somethin’ called a “soccer” team. Kinda like football, but they kick the ball more, I guess.
- They played a game in 2023.
- They planned to play again in 2024.
- Maybe they’ll keep playing there for a while.
So, they played one game, then another. And then they played *two games in a row* in London! Can ya believe it? Two whole games! That’s a lot of football, even for them young fellas.
But stayin’ there for good? I ain’t so sure about that. They got a home back in Jacksonville, ya know. A big ol’ stadium where folks go to watch ’em play.
Fixin’ Up the Home Field
Now, here’s the thing. I heard they’re gonna fix up that stadium in Jacksonville. Gonna make it all fancy and new. Startin’ in 2025, they say. So maybe, just maybe, they played them extra games in London ’cause they needed a place to play while they’re fixin’ things up back home.
Makes sense, right? Like when you gotta fix your roof, you might stay with your sister for a bit. Same kinda thing, only with football and a whole ‘nother country.
London Games: A Regular Thing?
But even with the fixin’ up, it seems like them Jaguars like goin’ to London. Mr. Khan, he’s got that soccer team over there, remember? So maybe they’ll keep goin’ back even after they fix up their stadium. Play a game or two over there every year. It’s good for business, they say. Gets more folks watchin’ and buyin’ tickets.
It’s all a bit confusing, all this talk of contracts and renovations and playin’ games across the ocean. But what I understand is this: Them Jaguars, they went to London, played some games, and they might go back again. But they ain’t movin’ there for good, not as far as I can tell. They got a home in Jacksonville, and they’re gonna keep it.
So, to answer your question straight…
Did Jacksonville stay in London? Naw, not for good. They just went there to play some games, and maybe they’ll go back again sometime. But their home is still Jacksonville, and that’s where they’ll be, especially once they get that stadium all fixed up. That’s the way I see it, anyways. Now, where’s my tea?
More on the London Games
I also heard somethin’ about them Jaguars changin’ where they stayed in London. Hotels, I think they called ’em. Seems like they didn’t like the first one too much, so they found another one. Picky fellas, ain’t they? But I guess if you’re gonna be playin’ football in a foreign land, you want a comfy place to sleep.
And it weren’t just one game at a time. They played two games right after one another in London. Heard it was the first time they ever did that. Guess they really wanted to give them London folks a show. Or maybe they just really like that London food. Fish and chips, they call it. Sounds kinda greasy to me.
Anyway, that’s all I know about them Jacksonville Jaguars and their London adventures. Hope it makes some sense to ya. It’s enough to make an old woman’s head spin, all this talk of football and travelin’ across the ocean. But it’s somethin’ to talk about, I guess. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
