The Jacksonville Jaguars are a professional football team playing in the National Football league. The Jaguars, playing out of Jacksonville, Florida in the AFC Conference, reside in the AFC South Division with the Indianapolis Colts, the Tennessee Titans, and the Houston Texans. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/teams/page/JAC/jacksonville-jaguars?tag=pageRow;pageContainer

The Jaguars have only been in the NFL since 1995, but they have had a great amount of success for an expansion team. They have been AFC South Division Champions twice (in 1998 and 1999), and have made the NFL Playoffs in 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2005, and 2007. http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nfl/jax/jaguars.html

Unfortunately for the team, but luckily for the ticket seeker, the Jaguars have not fared very well at the attendance gate. In 2009, the Jaguars were ranked 30th out of 32 teams in attendance. Only 397,214 fans made their way to Jacksonville Municipal Stadium in 2009, for an average of 49,651 people per game. These numbers represent only 73.9% of Jacksonville Municipal Stadium's capacity. http://espn.go.com/nfl/attendance

As far as ticket prices go, the Jaguars held their prices way below the league average, charging only $57.34 for an average ticket, compared with the league average of $74.99. http://teammarketing.com.ismmedia.com/ISM3/std-content/repos/Top/News/nfl%20fci%202009.pdf To get a more accurate reading of what it costs to attend an NFL game, a formula, called the Fan Cost Index, was thought up. The FCI is what it costs for four average priced NFL tickets, two draft beer, four soft drinks, four hot dogs, parking for one car, two game programs, and two of the cheapest adult-size, adjustable caps. The Jacksonville Jaguars Fan Cost Index came in at more than $100 less than the NFL's average. (Jaguars FCI- $310.28; the league's average FCI- $412.64) http://teammarketing.com.ismmedia.com/ISM3/std-content/repos/Top/News/nfl%20fci%202009.pdf For the 2010 NFL Season, the Jaguars season ticket prices are being sold for as low as $300. http://www.jaguars.com/tickets/default.aspx Single game tickets go on sale in August.

By week 13 of the 2009 NFL Season, the Jaguars were in the thick of the NFL playoff race at 7-5. Unfortunately for the Jags, the wheels came off and they lost the final four games of the season to finish 7-9 and out of the play-off picture. http://www.nfl.com/teams/schedule?team=JAC The Jags have hit a rough spot as far as ticket sales go. The NFL has a blackout policy which means the game in question will not be televised if the game is not sold out. In the 2009 season, there were a total of 20 blackouts for the entire NFL. The Jaguars had seven of those. http://www.montrealgazette.com/sports/Jaguars+unveil+ticket+plan/2905067/story.html That can change, though, and sometimes you'll need to go to an indirect source to snatch up some Jags tickets.
