I'd hate to be Fabiola and I'd be doing some serious begging. lol.

Just got a ticket for the event. Anyone have any idea how good the view with a VIP field pass would be? Thinking about upgrading my ticket to include the VIP pass. Wish they hand a stage set up on ticket master so I could see how good my current seat is.

Cait Carlson ‏@CaiteeLyn 29m The Jags sent me 2 free tickets to the soccer game/scoreboard unveiling/Carrie Underwood concert. Day made.

Starting to see a lot of tweets coming across about this concert on Saturday night...people are getting excited!!

I think it would be so cool if Carrie used her opening video screens from the "Blown Away" tour....the whole entrance, including the tornados and her coming out of the house.

from the house while launching into "Good Girl." So glad she used it last weekend...will look sweet on the huge screen in Florida!!

Big star for a big night: Carrie Underwood plays Saturday at EverBank Field in Jacksonville | members.jacksonville.com

The Jaguars needed a big star to launch the biggest video screens on the planet. Carrie Underwood, who’s just 5-foot-3, fit the bill perfectly.

She’s scheduled to do a 75-minute concert Saturday night. The event, billed as the Jaguars Mega Event, starts with a soccer match between Shad Khan’s London team Fulham and the MLS’ DC United, followed by the debut of the mammoth new video screens at either end of the stadium. Underwood closes out the evening.

She’ll perform on a stage set up around the 30-yard line on the north end of the stadium. The show goes on rain or shine and will be shown on the big screens.

Mark Lamping, president of the Jaguars, said the team was looking for a performer with a broad appeal for the event.

“Our goal was to find a world class entertainer commensurate with the world class quality of our fans and our new video boards,” Lamping said. “We believe Carrie Underwood was the perfect choice.“

So what’s so big about Underwood?

■ She’s won six Grammys, 16 Billboard Music Awards, 11 Academy of Country Music Awards and been inducted into the Grand Ole Opry — all in less than a decade.

■ In May, TIme magazine named her as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

■ She’ll sing the “Sunday Night Football” theme song, “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night,” for the second consecutive season.

■ She received high marks for her work as Maria in “The Sound of Music Live!,” which aired in December on NBC.

■ She shared the stage in May with Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, Sheryl Crow and Stevie Nicks at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, singing the songs of inducted Linda Ronstadt. (Harris, by the way, is also in town Saturday night, performing at the Times-Union Center)

■ Her video for “See You Again” was named Video of the Year at the CMT Music Awards in June. It’s the third year in a row Underwood has won the award (the other two were for “Blown Away” and “Good Girl.”) Her 10 career CMT awards are the most of any artist.
