Fire Up the Fossil Fuel Phonograph: Catching the Game on Traditional Radio
There's something beautiful about the scratchy, static-filled charm of AM/FM radio. It's like experiencing the game through a layer of nostalgia (or a bad thunderstorm). Here's your roadmap to Jaguars Radio Nirvana:
- Dial in the Dynasty: WJXL 1010 AM / 92.5 FM - The official flagship station of the Jags, this is your one-stop shop for all things Duval. John Shipley and the crew will bring you the game, along with enough pre-game hype to launch you into orbit.
- Become a Radio Roamer: Don't have a radio handy? Fear not! There are a bunch of free internet radio apps like TuneIn that let you stream the game from various stations across the country. Just be prepared for a slight audio delay – perfect for those who enjoy living life on the edge (or ten seconds behind).
Pro Tip: If you're rocking the old-school radio, hold onto that antenna for dear life. A dropped signal during a game-winning drive is a recipe for tears (and possibly thrown objects).
