Ahead of Sunday’s AFC wild-card game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills, the Mayors of each city have made a friendly wager.
Appearing on ‘Good Morning Football,’ Jacksonville Mayor Donna Deegan detailed what is at stake.
“We made a little friendly wager that when the Jacksonville Jaguars win this game, as they most assuredly will,” Deegan said, “they will be sending us a truckload of Buffalo wings, which I just cannot wait to have. And also a contribution to our local food bank.”
And if the Bills win?
“In the unlikely, and actually impossible event that the Bills would win,” Deegan added, “what they’re going to miss out on is the best shrimp in the world — Mayport Shrimp. We’d make a contribution to their food bank as well.”
