When the Jacksonville Jaguars
played their first game at Alltel Stadium in 1995, they became
the first team to play in a new stadium in the 1990's. In 1990,
the NFL announced that it would expand to 30 teams by the start
of the 1995 season. Hoping to be awarded a franchise, the Jacksonville
City Council voted to commit $60 million to renovate the Gator
Bowl, contingent upon the city being awarded an expansion football
team. In November 1993, the NFL
awarded Jacksonville a franchise. Instead of renovating the
Gator Bowl, the city decided to demolish 90 percent of the
stadium and construct a new one on the same site. Completed
in just 19.5 months, the stadium was completed by opening
day 1995.
Originally named Jacksonville Municipal
Stadium, the Jaguars played their first game at the stadium
on August 18, 1995. The stadium consists of over 70,000 blue
seats. Two, two tier grandstands of seats are located on both
sides of the playing field. The lower deck circles the entire
playing field. Two 60-by-156-foot video/scoreboards are located
at both ends of the stadium. In 1997, Alltel Communications
purchased the naming rights to the stadium, thus getting its
present day name, Alltel Stadium. The stadium has many amenities
including 10,000 club seats and two Touchdown Clubs that provide
more than 65,000 square feet of air-conditioned comfort with
a variety of food and beverage selections. Alltel Stadium
hosts many other events other than Jaguars games, including
the Gator Bowl and concerts. It also hosted the 2005 SuperBowl.
