This comes after the city of Orlando and Florida Citrus Sports worked for months to put together a bid to bring the Jags to the City Beautiful.<\/p>\n
And with renovations currently ongoing at Camping World, bringing in an NFL team would be the latest evidence of the city\u2019s commitment\u00a0to growing the area.<\/p>\n
Less than half a mile away from Camping World stands Ivanhoe Park Lager House, a brewery that prides itself on it\u2019s environment.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re just committed to community by doing fun community events and just being a place everyone can come,” said Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company CEO Glenn Closson.<\/p>\n
He said community growth was one of the big reasons he decided to open a second location on Orange Blossom Trail.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were super excited when this opportunity came up,” Closson said. “And we knew that there was a lot of future growth and that there were a lot of plans for the area, so, we just wanted to be a part of that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ongoing renovations at and around Camping World stadium is proof of that growth.<\/p>\n
Increased seating, an improved fan experience and a new multi-purpose center are expected to be added at the stadium in hopes of bringing in more high-profile events.<\/p>\n
Closson said it would be exciting to have the Jags in town, especially since the team already has a strong fanbase in Central Florida.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe do get a good group every Sunday during the season to kind of watch the Jaguars play,” he said. “So if they come, it would be just insane getting crowds of Jags fans in here and kind of building on the excitement of it and see it keep growing.”<\/p>\n
Closson credits Florida Citrus Sports and the city of Orlando for their recent work to bring more events to Camping World.<\/p>\n
Orlando City Commissioner\u00a0Shan\u00a0Rose said\u00a0events like soccer matches, bowl games, and the NFL Pro Bowl event have showcased Orlando as a destination city.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe continue to meet the needs of all of our visitors. We just added two sports football teams, our spring football teams, that have come here,” Orlando Rose said. “People want to see sports and people are enjoying it, and more than anything we have a true family friendly environment and atmosphere here in the city of Orlando.\u201d<\/p>\n
