The big question is whether fans are prepared to pay a premium for remaining game tickets.
“100 percent I’m going to go to the Jaguars game this weekend,” Jaguars fan Katie Englund said.
But some people are not so lucky.
“I actually had knee surgery, so I didn’t want to move around,” Jaguars fan James Struchen said. “But I would if I could.”
Anyone considering going to a game now shouldn’t be surprised by the price.
Ticketmaster’s website shows there are still tickets available for fans to purchase. Currently, prices range from $160 to $1,700.

“I paid for the ticket myself and my husband and I paid for it,” Englund said. “We spent $250 each.”
But those ticket prices haven’t stopped some fans from going to the games.
“(I’m) definitely not going to miss this game,” Englund said. “I’ll pay again.”

Even though Struchen was unable to play, he sent that message to the Jaguars.
“Man, do it for the home team, Duvall, let it go, baby,” Struchen said.
The Jags-Bills game will tip off at 1 pm on Sunday at EverBank Stadium.
