Security visibly beefed up for Jaguars game

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- It was less than a week ago that three suicide bombers blew themselves up outside of a stadium in Paris.

On Thursday, with thousands of fans at Everbank Field for the Jaguars game, security was beefed up in and around the stadium.

"I believe our city has done everything possible to secure everything," said Jaguars fan John Short.

As the Jaguars played the Titans inside EverBank Field, outside officers were posted on every corner, ranging from uniformed officers to plain clothes cops and even bomb sniffing dogs.

Fans like Eddie Smith say what happened in Paris did not deter fans from coming to the game.
