 PROFILE
The Jacksonville Jaguars have pounced on their competition, becoming the most successful expansion team in NFL history. The Jaguars began play as the league's 30th team in 1995. Since then they have made the playoffs four times and appeared in the AFC championship game twice (losing both times). Successes aside, the team is struggling to build its fan base; many season-ticket holders chose not to renew after the novelty of a new NFL team wore off. Touchdown Jacksonville!, a group formed to bring pro football to the city, was awarded the franchise in 1993. It also negotiated a $145 million renovation of the Gator Bowl (now Alltel Stadium). Wayne Weaver, part owner of Shoe Carnival, owns a majority of the team.
