>>BRUCE HAMILTON: WELL IT’S NO SECRET THE JAGS HAVE THE NUMBER ONE PICK AND WILL LIKELY DRAFT
A QUARTERBACK
TREVOR LAWRENCE, BUT DID YOU
KNOW HE GOT MARRIED OVER THE
WEEKEND TO
MARISSA MAORI JAGUAR FANS
DIDN’T GET AN INVITE TO THE
WEDDING BUT THEY WANTED
LAUREN’S TO KNOW THEY WERE
HAPPY FOR HIM. IT ALL STARTED
AS A BIT OF A JOKE.
ERIC DILLARD SENT OUT THIS
TWEET IF EVERYONE WANTS TO HIT
BY VENMO WE CAN BUY THEM.
ONE OF THE CITY GIFTS ON THE
REGISTRY. WE WANT TO WELCOME
THEM TO DUVAL
THEN ADJUSTED CAP RESPONDED ON
TWITTER WITH THIS. WE SHOULD
LEGIT BUY THEM SOMETHING.
WELL YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT
HAPPENED. THE MONEY STARTED
ROLLING INTO ERIC DILLARD’S
VENMO ACCOUNT AND HE JOINS ME
ON THE MORNING SHOW HEY
GOOD MORNING. WE WANT TO KNOW
YES GREAT SO HOW SHOCKED OR
SURPRISED AREA.
>> SO I WAS LIKE KIND OF
SHOCKED THAT PEOPLE WANTED TO
THE STREETS THROUGH MY VOTE
COUNTS IS KIND OF WEIRD.
BUT I GUESS LIKE THINKING ABOUT
THE THINGS WE’VE DONE IN THE
THIS $300 THAT SAME KIND OF
LIKE A
VERY REASONABLE. AMOUNT TO GET
TO SO IT’S PRETTY AWESOME THAT
HAPPENED SO QUICKLY.
>>BRUCE HAMILTON: IT IS SO
YOU’RE HOPING TO GET ENOUGH
MONEY TO BUY A TOASTER AT LAST
COUNT. HOW MUCH WAS
CROWDSOURCED.
>> SO SO FAR WE DON’T COUNT.
THAT’S A STORY THAT’S ALREADY
BEEN AND A VACUUM THAT STARTED
AND SON. WE HAVE
7,000 THAT WE’RE
GOING TO DUE TO HIM SO I TO THE
CHARITY OF HIS CHOICE.
>> ALL RIGHT SO LET ME GET
TO THAT YOU DID SOME HOMEWORK
AND YOU FOUND OUT THAT THE
COVID-19 RELIEF FUND WAS THE
ONE CHARITY THAT YOU KNOW HE
WAS TIED TO
AND YOU’RE REACHING OUT TO THE
PEOPLE THAT REPRESENT HIM TO
FIND OUT IF THERE ARE OTHERS
AREN’T YOU.
>> I CONTACTED HIS
AGENT YESTERDAY. AND WE’RE
EXPLORING MAYBE IT COULD END UP
BEING SOMETHING THAT’S LOCAL
JACKSONVILLE. BUT I ALSO
KNOW THAT AS YOU KNOW THE
FRANCHISE QUARTERBACK, HE HAS
PLANS TO COME BACK
SOME BILL AND START HIS OWN
CHARITY WORK. SO IF YOU WANT TO
DO IS SOMETHING BACK HOME.
I THINK CLEMSON OR EVEN IN
CARTERSVILLE GEORGIA. THE
REALLY COOL THING UP FOR THEM
ALSO.
>> AND YOU KNOW I STARTED
THINKING KYLE WHO’S BACK IN THE
BOOTH REMINDED ME THAT THIS IS
NOT YOUR FIRST CHARITABLE
EFFORT ON TWITTER YOU HELPED A
LOCAL TEACHER
BOOK STENGER.
>> YES, SIR THIS ALONG WITH
EVERYBODY IS MORE THAN JUST
MEANT. YES AND
THE COUPLE.
>> SO YOU’VE GOT SOME CLOUT BUT
I WAS THINKING TO
MYSELF, OK, YOU KNOW YOU’RE
ASKING PEOPLE TO VENMO YOU CASH
IN MOST OF THESE PEOPLE DON’T
REALLY KNOW YOU YOU’VE GOT TO
FIND THAT IS KIND OF ODD.
>> YES,
SOMETHING THAT MY PREVIOUS
CREDIBILITY WITH THE BOOK
DRIVE. IT
WAS LIKE $14,000 IN BOTH
STORIES WHICH IS A HUGE NUMBER
THAT WE NEVER EXPECTED AND
THEN. IN FEBRUARY THERE IS
MONEY FOR THE OLSEN BUILDING
DOWNTOWN SO I THINK THAT
THE IT PROVES THIS THING
CREDIBILITY KIND OF HELP TAKE
AND I’VE BEEN REALLY
TRANSPARENT WITH NO ONE REALLY
KNOWS WHAT’S HAPPENING AS MONEY
SOME OF THEM
BECAUSE WE DO WANT TO GET ALL
THAT WE WANT WE WANT HER TO GET
ALL OF THE MONEY AND SEND IT TO
THE JURY OF HIS SHOWS.
>> THAT’S REALLY FANTASTIC.
ALL RIGHT BACK TO THE GIFTS ON
THE REGISTRY.
YOU KNOW THEY THEY PROBABLY HAD
TO HAVE A PRETTY FANTASTIC
REGISTRY. I MEAN THE GUY’S
GOING TO BE AN NFL QUARTERBACK
AFTER ALL. YOU YOU WANT TO GET
A TOASTER BUT SOMEBODY ELSE
TOOK CARE OF THAT.
>> THAT’S JOHN ONE OF OUR GREAT
LAWYERS IN TOWN HE JUMPED IN.
IT’S NOT THE TOASTER SUNSET
INITIALLY AS I GUESS FROM JAX
TWITTER AND THEN TOLD US THAT
WE COULD USE THE $300 JUST SO
YOU KNOW MAKE A DONATION FUND
LARGER BUT BECAUSE WE DIDN’T
HAVE SUCH A LARGE AMOUNT OF
MONEY AND PEOPLE DID INITIALLY
DONATE THE
MONEY WITH THE IDEA BY A COUPLE
ITEMS WE ALSO BOTH THE U.S. AND
THAT TOO.
>> DECKER YOU WANT TO HAVE
THEM, YOU KNOW SOMETHING
PRACTICAL.
>> ABSOLUTELY I MEAN
AND I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN SAY
THIS WE’VE RELEASES INNOCENT SO
I HAD TO GET BACK IN THE SENATE
DO IT FOR HIM HUH I
LOVE IT.
>>BRUCE HAMILTON: ALL RIGHT SO
DO ME A YOU KNOW HOW TO GET IN
TOUCH WITH ME WHEN YOU FIND OUT
WHAT CHARITIES. THE MONEY IS GOING TO GO TO THE SIDE THE COVID-19 RELIEF AND LET US KNOW
AND I THINK IT’S JUST
FANTASTIC. THAT SO MANY JAGS
FANS HERE IN DUVAL COUNTY AND
PROBABLY ELSEWHERE OR SO BEHIND
THIS GUY AND I THINK HE CAN
MOVE THE TEAM FORWARD THAT
IS AWESOME THEY’RE YOU KNOW
THEY’RE THEY’RE SO LOVING HE’S
