What It Means:

Jackson said "Oh man, I would say it's the teams going out there battling but it's the cities too. I feel like our fans, our city, they get the most out of it, I feel, more than we do sometimes...I can't even imagine being in the stands watching us perform against them or them perform against us, it's going to be a lights out game.".
