I'll be there.
As we get closer to September, send me your e-mail address and I'll send you info on where my crew tailgates.
Would love to meet up and chat real time over some beers.
Boca - where did you get the tickets? Thinking about going and would prefer to sit with UT fans.
Man I'd never go to a game at the swamp. Not trying to just hate or talk a bunch of smack...but I think uf is without question know to be the most classless fan base on planet earth. I literally know several people that have been sucker punched walking in or out of the place. I've also heard of cars with tn logos being vandalized ect.
As much as I hate bama I've never heard of any of these types of things happening there. Or Georgia. My theory is that bama and georgia(and us) have a long history of success and the fan base as a whole has just "been there". Florida was really a totally irreverent program until spurrier showed up there in the 90's. Kinda like an inbred meth-head that hits the lotto. They're still inbred meth-heads...
Two things. Over two years of hearing about the conduct of Gator fans in Gainesville, I will never attend a game there. Some stuff can only be felonies, assault, destruction of property and worse. I have no doubt I'd end up in jail if I went.
The other things is merely a comment on perspective. Bad as Gator fans are reputed to be, believe me when I say that foreign soccer fans are worse. Fans storm fields and physically attack players, coaches, and referees, sometimes members of their own team because of a bad play. People bring guns to games and use them when ticked off about something. Acts of outright murder occur. As a matter of fact, there was a recent incident of a referee being killed and dismembered. So while I won't be going to a UT-Fla game in Gainesville, you wouldn't be able to drag me to a soccer game in places like Mexico, Brazil or some of the European games, not even with Clydesdales. So Gators, you may be as classless as roach dung, but you aren't the worse fans on Earth.
Those soccer games tend to be lower level soccer. The reason why the referee was decapitated in Brazil is because he stabbed a amateur soccer player to death. Usually fans of big clubs aren't as careless and ruthless as the poorer small clubs.
