Finally caught up on sleep and work from Monday night ... here's some good stuff to tide you over until the weekend ...
FINAL THOUGHTS ON MONDAY NIGHT
INTEL FROM ALLTEL (err ... Jacksonville Municipal Stadium)
IF YOU'RE GOING ...
When the Steelers visit Jacksonville there is always a huge contingent of Steelers fans on hand. If you plan on heading down south, we got a note from the folks at JAXBAG about a big party weekend they're planning along with the Steel City Mafia. Check it out:
Come one...come all! This will be the Steelers party of the year! Oct 3-5 will
have lots of events related to the Steelers big game in Jacksonville. It begins
on Friday, October 3 with a charity softball game between members of Jags Nation
against members of J.A.X.B.A.G. and Steelers Nation at University of North Florida's Harmon Baseball
Stadium with the events to kick off at about 7:15 with the singing of the
National
Anthem followed by America
the Beautiful and a first pitch from a child suffering from Cystic Fibrosis.
All proceeds from this event will benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Jacksonville.
Saturday is the pep rally to
top all pep rally's. It will be at our HQs at Chicago Pizza and Sports Grill on
Philips Highway and Baymeadows Road. Greg Lloyd will be at the event signing autographs and
there will be a charity dunk
tank named "Dunk-A-Steelers Fan." All proceeds from the day benefit Meals
on Wheels of Urban Jacksonville. There will be a "Myron Cope Impersonation Contest" with prizes and a "Best Costume of the Day"
with prizes awarded as well.
The weekend ends of course with the NBC Sunday
Night Game of the Week between our Steelers and the Jags and there will
be tons of Black and Gold faithful in town that weekend and tailgating early on
Sunday.
We hope to see you that weekend!
Harvey "Mr. Steeler" Aronson
VP & Director of Operations
Jacksonville Black and Gold
