As far as the April fool’s joke is concerned, “NOT FUNNY AT ALL”. Considering that jax need something like that being such a big city. It would be nice for the kid’s and, grown-up’s to have something as nice as Lego Land. So to me the joke wasn’t funny at all.
I totally agree, joke wasn’t funny. Jacksonville is a Big Theme Park Desert!
