Jaguars want a "White Out" against the Bengals

Photo

The Jacksonville Jaguars are going to ask fans to wear white in their home match up with the Cincinnati Bengals on October 9th at EverBank Field. To my knowledge, aside from "teal" this is the first time the team has openly asked fans to wear a specific color on game day. The team will be selling a special white t-shirt that is $10, I assume similar to the September 11th shirts they sold. They will be available at the next home game and at Football Fanatics and Sports Mania stores.

The Jaguars are inviting their fans to take part in the team's first-ever "whiteout" game when they host the Cincinnati Bengals at EverBank Field on October 9th at 1:00 p.m.

The team will be wearing an all-white uniform when they take on the Bengals and the Jaguars are asking their fans to do likewise to create a "whiteout" at EverBank Field.

Macky Weaver, the Jaguars Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing, said, "With the team wearing its all-white uniform against Cincinnati we thought this would be a great opportunity to show a unified front against the Bengals, so we're inviting all of our fans to take part by wearing white to the game."

Didn’t they do a blackout on a monday night some years ago?

I know this isn’t the first time they’ve asked fans to wear a specific color

They wore all black uniforms, but....

didn’t ask fans to wear black. Blackout and Jacksonville is kind of a touchy subject, so I doubt they would do that…..

LOL, why would that be a touchy subject? I guess some people “assume” everything is racist?

Just like many people “assume” every home game in Jacksonville gets blacked out….

I know

Like I said after the opener, we looked like the prison guards in Longest Yard….. Hey now….. That just might be appropriate vs Cincy. I just don’t want Cedric Benson handing the football to Wayne Weaver saying “Game Ball.” after JDR decides not to shoot him for attempting to escape.

Seriously though, I like the teal unis, that’s our color. I was pissed that gold was de-emphasized on the new unis, but I vividly remember Weaver saying teal at home. I still want to see an all teal uni for the Monday Nighter, OR we go all white and allow the Chargers to go Powder Blue.

For the Cincy Game, I’m donning the all white suit similar to what the Green Men in Vancouver wear.

what happened to "forming an identity" by wearing teal at home and white away?

The white on whites look terrible… if they’re going to bring back anything, bring back the all black unis …

and this isn’t college football, unless it’s a Monday nighter or nationally televised game, no one is going to coordinate.

I just hope it's a complete sellout

Gonna look kind of silly with the TV seats (Club seats) in teal and rest of stadium in white, with the exception of the honor row.

When I called the ticket office today....

to order some tickets for some friends, They were promoting 4 game mini packs. You could pick 3 games, but you had to take the Bengals game. I assume they are pushing for a big crowd.

by GAJAGFAN on Sep 22, 2011 2:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

they need to push the Houston game as well

That may be the only blackout this year.

We lead the league in Specialized T-Shirt Sales

I think there was the Camo Jaguars T-Shirt last year and the WE ARE JAGUARS T-Shirt. This year we had the 9/11 Jaguars shirt, now this. I am sure there will be more.

Erik Estrada was the guest of honor. The unis were awesome. Only thing missing was the bullpen tugboat.

Yes, this was actually used.

Speaking of Bengals

With a match against Cincy, Gabbert could possibly face off against Newton, Dalton and Locker (if the titans decide to change). That’s a lot of Rookie v Rookie matchs. Should be interesting

It's the classic Jaguar look.

All-white was the Jags’ original staple. It was the uniform worn when they first shocked the football world in Denver. It was the uniform worn for many of Mark, Jimmy and Keenan’s connections. It will always be a classic look. And a source of many Jaguars memories for me.

Either way, as long as the Jags win, they could wear garbage bags for uniforms and I’d be happy.

The Teal and Black are comin' back!

Get some damn Teal socks. To me teal is just our accent color now, it’s not the primary color anymore.

how bout teal and black vertical striped socks like the Broncos old 1960 AFL unis?

I only wish we did this against the Saints when they come or on the Monday nighter against the Chargers

I think it would be added excitement and I would rather have that excitement for a bigger game. I understand why though, they may have a hard time selling the rest of the Bengals tickets so they do this to get people to come. They know they will sell out the Monday Night games and the Saints and two other division games. Smart move to sell tickets.

Don't know about you guys, and maybe the mood will change Monday, but I'm feeling pretty positive about this franchise right now

Finally have what we feel is the franchise qb starting.

Errr. Since when became white the Jaguars main color?...

It means that the Jags will play in their white gear on Week 5? Good, because teal supposed to be the main colour of the franchise.

If we are gonna wear the white jersey

then we should put the teal numbers back on them. Im not a fan of the all white with black numbers. Also it would look cool if they wear teal pants with it.

by JagSoldier on Sep 22, 2011 6:52 PM EDT reply actions  

It would kind of look like the Chargers

when they wear the white top and powder blue bottom.
