Jaguars celebrate 904 day, encourage fans to show their team pride for free tickets

With a good enough “DUUUVAL” chant today, you could win free tickets to see the #Jaguars up close.

The Jacksonville Jaguars regular season kickoff is officially just one week away. Anticipation is building for fans, and the team knows that their supporters want to get involved in wishing them well before the grueling 17-game schedule gets underway.

Today’s date, September Fourth, has been dubbed 904 Day in honor of Duval County, Florida’s area code. The Jaguars are encouraging all die-hard Jacksonville Fans to get involved in celebrating their hometown by sending them their most enthusiastic and creative “DUUUVAL” chant for a chance to win free tickets to a game this season.

Check out the Tweet that the team put out to announce the competition here, and be sure to click the link to check all the terms and conditions that apply to win your chance to see the team up close:

The race is officially on to show the Jaguars the most creative and excited “DUUUVAL” chant of all time. It might seem like a silly sweepstakes opportunity, but the team knows that Jacksonville fans are all too serious in their support of their beloved team.

This competition is just one of what is sure to be a series of pre-kickoff activities that the team will undertake to drum up support ahead of their 2022 redemption campaign.

There is a sort of sick irony to all this, in that a team that has lost so many games over the past two seasons is seeking the most vociferous chant of support. Some might think that the best way to secure the adulation they’re looking for might be to win football games, but free tickets will probably do the trick as well.

2022 will be an exercise in rebuilding the Jaguars roster and reputation for the front office and coaching staff, and for fans should be an exercise in patience. Though Jacksonville has valuable pieces in place at key positions on their team, it will take more than chants or tickets to get back to playing winning football in the 904.

Tyrann Mathieu’s foundation holding sweepstakes for trip to Chiefs vs. Raiders

You can win a trip to the #Chiefs vs. #Raiders Week 10 game by making a donation to S Tyrann Mathieu’s foundation. | from @TheJohnDillon

Tickets for games in the Raiders’ new stadium in Las Vegas are prohibitively expensive for most fans, and doubly so when the Kansas City Chiefs are slated to play there. The desert real estate is a prime destination for tourists and townies alike in Sin City, with the tumult of their 2021 campaign adding to the intrigue of how they might collapse or overcome against all odds after getting off to a fast start almost in spite of themselves.

Potentially a turning point in both of the teams’ seasons, the matchup this Sunday at Allegiant Stadium is sure to be one of the most important games on the schedule for Week 10. With anticipation mounting and so much on the line, All-Pro safety Tyrann Mathieu is organizing a sweepstakes for an all-inclusive trip to Vegas to see Kansas City take on the 5-3 Raiders for a potential share of the lead in the AFC West.

Mathieu’s foundation Tweeted about the giveaway on Tuesday, telling fans that a $10 donation would enter them to win the grand prize of airfare, a hotel, and tickets to the game all for two people.

Entries and donations must be submitted by Friday at 3:00 pm Arrowhead time to be considered, and if the response from social media is any indication, fans are jumping all over the opportunity. Not only is the matchup between the teams bound to make for exciting football, but the money raised is also going to an exceptionally good cause.

According to their website, the Tyrann Mathieu Foundation was started by the star safety “to impact the lives of financially disadvantaged children and youth through encouragement, opportunities and resources to achieve their dreams.”

The organization operates in both Kansas City and Mathieu’s native New Orleans, where they’ve done excellent work throughout his time as an NFL superstar. With the help from fans eager to see the Chiefs on the road in Las Vegas, his foundation should see an influx of money that will help Mathieu continue to do big things off the field.
