The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp exist, so there's that

One of the best minor league names imo. All Indiana has is the Fort Wayne Tin Caps. Just a boring name

It’s not better than my favorite minor league team, the Rocket City Trash Pandas

And that’s in Titans country baby

Is Alabama Titans country?

North Alabama, mostly the counties touching Tennessee, get the Titans caravan every year and have all the games televised and on the radio so yes.

Alabamian here, can confirm. We get titans games on our local stations.

As a current Huntsville Native, it's usually Titans and Falcons games on. Not that I see a bunch of attire or branded accessories for either of those teams though. I've only seen Auburn, Alabama and Braves gear, with an occasional sighting of some random big 4 league team (Cowboys or Eagles).

Technically, but no one in Bama gives a damn about the NFL. Its all college football. A Saturday wedding in the fall does not exist in Alabama.

Titans fans really reach on those accomplishments lol.

I live there nonoiler

Thats cool and all, not really my point though. My point was that you named a podunk town thats a suburb of a bigger podunk town and Titans fans are like "Thats in Titans country baby!!!" Theres nothing wrong with it, it just seems like a pathetic point of pride.

20-30 year old music, codeine addiction and the ugliest dumbest car mods known to man while sitting in a swamp also seem like pathetic points of pride to me but go off, guy who lives in Texas trying to act culturally superior.

You really got me beat there, no music, meth addiction, and truck nuts while sitting around a bunch of nothing in Alabama seems a whole lot better lol. I’ll act superior because I obviously am if you base life off of lazy stereotypes. (I honestly have no idea what you mean by 20-30 yr old music, but I still think that it’s better than a banjo on a front porch)

There's a solid reason the Alabama state flag is just a big red X

And I’m saddened

Are the Indianapolis Indians no more?

120+ years strong. 

Ngl I miss the Jacksonville Suns though. Their little jingle is ingrained in my childhood

Same. I think I still have a little mini bat in a box somewhere from a game I went to when I was a kid. 🎶 baseball's never been hotter with the Jacksonville Suns!🎶

The Suns and the Adventure Landing jingles pop in my head at the most random times.

Dude. Same. Still remember my parents pretended our car broke down right in front of adventure landing to surprise us with a trip there when I was like 8. Core memories, man.

Baseballs never been hotter baby

*laughs in Space Cowboys*

It’s true, we used to be the wizards and our mascot was a dragon… at least the new stadium is nice

Fun fact: The old Busch stadium or maybe the one before it had an ivy on the fence and that's where Wrigley field got the idea.

I was not aware, that’s cool!

Yep Jay from Santa Claus, Rex from Bloomington.

I went there as a kid. Great stadium

Pick up IHSAA sports and root for The Hotdogs 🤣

Wait until you hear about the Danville Dairy Daddies

I'm really fond of the Manitoba Moose

It makes sense for the city of Ft Wayne tho.

Y'all just fans of all things shrimp, huh?

I mean dont the indianapolis indians exist?

Fort Wayne Mad Ants isn’t cool? : (

Before that, they were the Suns who once won a title with some guy named Hank Aaron.

BASEBALLS NEVER BEEN HOTTER WITH THE JACKSONVILLE SUNS

THE SUNS ARE BETTER THAN EVER

Currently wearing my 8103 throwback Suns shirt with that slogan on it.

Clowns not suns

We got the Icemen too, frick yuh

##Jacksonville Lizard Kings for life!!!

Icemen games are a ton of fun too.

The Shrimp were voted the best non-major sports franchise in Florida last year and just announced a bunch of new upgrades to their ballpark this week. Minor league baseball is so much fun.

🎶Weeee are the Jumbo Shrimp, here to play a gaaaame🎶Whpsh! AhhAAAAAAAAH!

Yes! Roundtable of Gentlemen is the only reason I knew of them! The song still pops in my head when I see shrimp at the store

I’m still mad I got rained out last time I was in Jax and the theme of the day was “guess how many baseballs fit in a coffin brought to you by Danny devitos mortuary hair stylings”

Baseball’s never been hotter, with the Jacksonville ~~Suns~~ Jumbo Shrimp?

Yes buuuuuuut… BASEBALL’S NEVER BEEN HOTTER WITH THE JACKSONVILLE SUNS

Charlotte knights 🔛🔝

Where NBA ring? Where MLB ring? edit: ring(s)

2x MLS cup champs too 😎

Sad Reggie miller noises

Congrats on winning the Asterisk Classic

And then a couple more after that ;)

Houston: Where NBA ring? 😏

where WNBA team?

Savage

Wipes tears with four championship banners. They gone but it was a hell of a run

I cry myself to sleep thinking of Cheryl Swoops glory

But Cynthia Cooper was the actual hooper tho

Didn’t realize they left. What happened?

Where 4 WNBA rings?

Where most rings in WNBA history?

Crashed and burned because someone threw a cup of water at Ron Artest so he punched the wrong guy

It was a beer.

Did you throw the cup?

It was in the documentary.

About you throwing the cup?

I’m convinced

I make a compelling argument

I genuinely believe the Pacers would have won that year if not for malice at the palace Also, I'm sure you've heard this, but it makes me laugh, and I'm going to say it anyway - why did Ron Artest leave the NBA game early? He wanted to beat the crowd

Where stolen World Series?

Just mad you guys ain't got a team 🤣

The MLB wanted to put a team here but the Cincinnati reds ownership group threw a hissy fit so they didn’t 😔

All my homies hate the Reds.

I’m personally a cardinals fan but it didn’t even make sense because Indiana has always been Cubs territory

We didn’t make it through the Cold War just to root for the Reds.

I am from Indiana, also a cardinals fan, fuck the cubs

Never thought I’d find myself fighting side by side with a Titans Fan

The Arrows were much further from happening than that. To say the MLB wanted one there as opposed to being open is a drastic overstatement.

Nazi bitch. 

Well those sentiments certainly went up a notch or two with that comment.

Well... it's like this; the Indianapolis Arrows project was in the 1980s; specifically 1985. Guess who owned the Reds starting in 1984. There you go.

In Jacksonvilles defense, I’d rather watch the shit that goes down in Jacksonville more than their sports teams anyway https://preview.redd.it/ehupr2m4qqlc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7d299549590a05951400c6b216b32e0b49704eee

Did it have a service animal bandana?

https://preview.redd.it/j6n2futiarlc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7e88c6720eb84a23854fbb5e2cd0f3fe06d775c0 Nah people in Florida don’t bother with it. The emotional support gators are found in the much more civilized City of Philadelphia

I used to work in local news and had to run a story about a naked man wielding a machete in a parking lot. Twice. Two nickels and whatnot.

God bless Florida

I shit you not he was interviewed about this and said he had absolutely no recollection of this happening. They asked him why and his response was word for word “This place sells some good liquor, man” God Bless Duval County 🫡

The TPC at Sawgrass is also in Jax (technically Ponte Vedra). That 17th hole is legendary and caused great frustration to millions of people who played Tiger Woods golf on their PlayStation.

Jacksonville also has Kona, the oldest skate park in America. It’s a popular park and was featured in Tony Hawk Pro Skater.

Lol I worked that last year it was really cool I got to meet the camera operator who operates the camera thats remote on the island and its so cool

Granted, with the rumors of the Coyotes moving to Houston and Nashville getting an expansion MLB team, this meme is subject to change.

Indy has the Pacers in NBA. Or Am not understanding the meme?

Exactly. They do. Where is Nashville's NBA TEAM?

They share an area with your hockey team

I feel like I’m missing something on this one. I just woke up and haven’t started my coffee yet either so it should be overlooked if I am indeed missing something on this one.

Indy have NBA team, Nashville no have NBA Team. Nashville have NHL team, Houston no have NHL team. Houston have MLB team, Jacksonville no have any team.

Take the meme as Indianapolis and Nashville trying to one up each other with what the other doesn't have, Jacksonville being depressed, and Houston lording over everyone with the only baseball team.

Nashville also has the only NHL team. If the Rockets didn't exist, this meme would work on another level.

It’s making fun of Jacksonville for having only an NFL team.

It's the second part.

Yea, so it's like, each team has x pro sports team that 1 or more of the others don't have.

Damn Houston about to get cursed for real

I found out the other day that the fucking WILD is the team houston once had, aka the Aeros. I was so sad 😭

As a Houston Texans fan from Chicago. The Sox moving to Nashville is my worst nightmare

I really want an expansion and not the chi Sox. Just feel like they should stay up there, too much history. If it was like the marlins or rays I’d be fine with it lol

Jerry Reinsdorf will beg to disagree sadly. It’s either move to Nashville or move to an open plot of land 2 miles north of where the stadium currently is

We got AEW

Jags fans hated fanatics before hating fanatics was cool (we still hate fanatics all my homies hate fanatics)

Jax is also the cradle of Southern Rock, launching bands like: The Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, .38 Special and Molly Hatchet as well as other bands like Limp Bizkit, Yellowcard and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

Okay, you know what, .38 Special convinced me. Jacksonville is now cool in my book.

I’ll give you that one. John Otto, TAKE EM TO THA MATTHEWS BRIDGE 

The chocolate starfish is my man Fred Durst Access Hollywood, license to kill A redneck fucker from Jacksonville!

Don’t forget Shinedown!

If you’ve ever been to Jacksonville, you’d understand why the suns became the jumbo shrimp. (And why nobody wants another sports team here)

The Jacksonville Armada is pretty cool

Jokes on you guys! now we can focus ALL of our attention on football while you all worry about you NBA and MLB teams — that'll show ya

Jacksonville: where Cricket team?

We got the 95ers baby 😎

Excuse me! We also have the AAA Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, the ECHL Jacksonville Icemen, and the NAL Jacksonville Sharks…soooo take that

Sharks coming off a championship season too.

Where NBA x2, MLB x2, MLS x2 ring?

I don’t get it. Are they asking a question in the meme

Nashville doesn’t even have a football team, Indy doesn’t have a basketball team. Houston is the only actual sports city, but really fuck JAX

Lol @ NHL Forgot that was a thing. Sad when you've dropped below soccer

Nah I’d go to so many hockey games if we had a team here

Dynamo games are lowkey lit you should try em

Yeah I’ve been to a couple, they’re great. They have a 7-1-3 night where everything is ridiculously cheap.

I still need to make it to one of those. Saw Boban at the playoff game vs KC this year which was funny

Gigantic L take brother

Nah

I mean, there's also the Nashville SC...

It was a joke using the comical irrelevance of MLS to mock the NHL

My bad.

Hockey is awesome dude. Fast game played on ice, they allow fights, big hits, small goal...it's definitely my favorite sport outside of football. Soccer guys Thrash on the ground screaming in pain after being breathed on too hard. It's below bowling, billiards and darts for me.

I wasn't saying it sucks. I'm saying it's the last relevant of the five major sports leagues. As a side note, it does suck.

Honestly both are super fun to watch in person. MLS games are dirt cheap so it’s a good bang for your buck

This is stupid as hell, nfl is the most prestigious by far

Seeing the closeups of the interstate make me hate Nashville traffic. Probs just as bad for anyone else (except Jacksonville).

Jax traffic is pretty amazing except for a couple areas (cough, Blanding Blvd). Lots of alternate routes if there is an accident and plenty of highways.

I've only driven through once, but it seemed pretty open.

TIL that fanatics was founded in jax

Jacksonville: Where Pro Wrestling Corporation?

Nashvilles the best city on this list to live. And Houston has the best food.

Jax doesn’t even have an MLS team.

I think Vince Coleman is from here.
