Getty ImagesIt’s hard not to like Shad Khan, the tough-talking, mustachioed, self-made billionaire who bought the Jaguars earlier this year.
Sure, he may have overplayed the Maurice Jones-Drew holdout a bit with the “time to get on the train” stuff, but Khan seems to be genuinely interested in making the Jaguars and Jacksonville the best team and city they can be.
He also has a sense of humor, as evidence by his brief appearance in a Gangnam Style parody video created by Radio Now 97.9 in Jacksonville. You can fast forward to 3:30 for the appearance from the Jags owner.
And just as Khan made a cameo in the parody video, the man responsible for the Gangnam Style sensation showed up in an SNL skit on Saturday night. (Hey, we gotta support the peacock.)
UPDATE 3:38 p.m. ET: He’s also dancing, at about 2:50. I love this guy.

He’d already won me over with the mustache.
Good a way for an owner to humanize himself, and endear himself to a city. Video does a nice job of showing off a bit of Jacksonville.
A video only someone from Jacksonville can truly appreciate. The guy doing the pelvic thrusts in the elevator is a local celebrity who dances like that for several hours a day on the corner holding a Whiskey River sign. With advertising like this, people will be flocking to the city!!!
Props to him! He’s comfortable in his own shoes. I doubt any other owner in the NFL would do something like that.
Dress Classy, dance cheesy!
Go JAGS!!! Thats awesome!!
Is he rocking the air guitar? Didn’t see him dancing in the actual clip.
The two coolest billionaires on the planet? Shad Khan and Sir Richard Branson. Whatever happens with the team, at least the Jaguars have one cool owner. Rock on Khan!
The funniest thing about it is that the Jags are 0-2. Lets dance to that!
He was walking around the tailgates Sunday with a 60 minutes crew following him. Talking to fans, and hanging out.
Really cool guy.
Trannies from the middle east are the best
Self-made billionaire?!?!
“You didn’t build that…..someone else did it for you!”
Maybe the same person you should have let appear on the video in your place?
Khan prefers spending the Jags money on tarps, rather than their best player.
