This from the guy who plays the music at the stadium:

QuoteDear Jags fans....... Sweet Home Alabama will never be played at Everbank field again........ That is all #StandUnited

What does this even mean?? I'm not getting the bigger message here.

Good.  They wore that song out in the 3rd quarter of games.

CityLife

Never heard of it. Is it a popular song at games or something?

that's it I am cancelling my season tickets!

Hopefully they'll add Nas's 'Hate Me Now (instrumental)' to that cancelled list too; It's an okay rap, but it's really played out.

They're just getting a jump on next year, after the pools have been installed so they can play Queen's, "Fat Bottomed Girls" at the end of the 2nd Qtr and as we come back from halftime, Steel Panther - Fat Girl as the camera pans across the North End Zone.

Flyovers cancelled, Skynard kicked out, this does not seem like Jacksonville anymore. Hail to the queen anyone, maybe Khan will replace Jag players with FOOSBALL players from London....
And, that $115 will save Jacksonville from financial ruin. - Mayor John Peyton

WHAT!!!??  Flyovers cancelled?  Nooooo......... 

I guess sequestration took care of that, huh?  Kind of expensive to do flyovers.  I always figured they used those for training missions of some kind.

Yeah, go figure, a guy who sold his yacht for 150 million and makes bumpers for cars cannot afford 10 flyovers for his paying customers. Class act.

Another misplaced blame to fit one's agenda Mtrain....Khan does not have any control of the US Department of Defense. The cancelling of flyovers at US sporting events is old news. It's ludicrous to suggest that a sports owner should be held responsible for something like that.

It's really sad that only one particular song can get a person pumped up for a Jags game. I'm actually glad that they got rid of that song, maybe it will help shed retro-stereotypes of a 'backwater image' shrouding over the city.They could have hypothetically cancelled my favorite song, and that would be a  VERY minor footnote when it comes to Jags football. So if not playing a song stops anyone from going to a Jags game, maybe your loyalty wasn't that deep.
