This time of year when you go to downtown Jacksonville, you have options to choose from for different sports. You can see the Sharks, can take in a Suns game, or cheer on the Armada. Now, two of those teams and their respective venues have combined to allow fans to double dip.

On Monday, the Sharks announced a partnership with Jacksonville Armada FC to provide a special BOGO ticket offer for their respective July 23 games. The Armada moved up their kickoff to 5 p.m. ET for the match against Ottawa Fury FC at Community First Park, located at the Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville. That allows fans to walk across the street to Veterans Memorial Arena to see the Sharks take on the Los Angeles KISS at Sea Best Field at 7 p.m. ET to celebrate Christmas in July.

If you have a ticket for either game, you can head to the other box office to participate in the buy one, get one free ticket offer for the other match. This means if you have a ticket to see the Armada, you can go over to the arena box office after enjoying Cultural/Arts Day for BOGO Sharks tickets. If you have Sharks tickets for Christmas in July, then head over to the box office at Community First Park for BOGO Armada tickets.

The heads of both teams showed their excitement about the joint venture.

“This is a great opportunity for each teams' fans to experience the others game,” said Operating Manager Jeff Bouchy. “We encourage all Sharks' fans to support the Armada FC on this day and then invite the Armada FC fans to come across the street and see what arena football is all about.”

“This is an exciting opportunity for each team to support each other and showcase the great sports culture we have in Jacksonville,” said Mark Frisch, Armada FC owner. “I look forward to a great day for sports on the First Coast.”
