	Ballpark Digest -- The Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville / Jacksonville Suns
		For Jacksonville, Wolfson Park was a barrier to upward mobility: the city father obviously views the city as being at a major-league level (witness the NFL Jacksonville Jaguars as a great example), but Wolfson Park was a relic that would never attract more than a Class AA team.
		Jacksonville decided to centralize all its sports facilities in one location, so both Alltel Stadium (known formerly as the Gator Bowl) and a new multipurpose area share the same area and parking lots as the Baseball Grounds.
		Jacksonville is a midsized town with big-league aspirations, but one of the nicer things about it is the relatively laid-back atmosphere.
