Tears Gator Tears

[JD08]

I might have spent 4 years there but I have never cheered for the Gator and that's not going to change anytime soon. I did have Jeremy Foley lecture in a sports law class once though and he was engaging and interesting.

Now the tougher problem is that I have a daughter going to FSU and she keeps wanting me to come up there for games and I want to be a supportive dad but I am running out of excuses to avoid going!! We have negotiated that I *might* come up for the UM game this year but she'd gonna have to deal with me wearing all Canes stuff and be unbearably obnoxious -- she was doing the chop at Hard Rock last year with me after all. Luckily nobody gave her a hard time because she's still my kid...

Before my daughter chose a college, I told her there was a hard rule. You can root for your school unless they play the Canes, then it's the Canes, 100%.

Where did she end up, if you don’t mind sharing?

I'm not judging at all.

My very first UM game was in The Swamp in 1986. Regardless of how hot it is, I always go back for UM games.

It was BRUTAL last year. ******* brutal. People passing out near us (yes, I was on the "direct sunlight" side).

**** it. It's Miami vs. The Gator. I'm there, no matter what.

It was about as brutally hot game that I remember, I had to go inside and cool down a couple of times. Thankfully, @Hurracanes kept giving me water.

It was ridiculously hot but what a blast! My favorite road game I’ve had in a long time.

It was unbearably hot when we played Florida at Hard Rock when Driskel was their QB. Noon game. I thought my uncle was going to die. We forgot where we parked too. Brutal

That was hot but last year was worse, imo. Hottest game I ever attended until this day was the 2000 FSU game.

Folks were falling out and the OB ran out of water. What a **** game though!

I was about 13 at that game and remember seeing multiple adults passing out from heat exhaustion and nobody noticing cuz the game was so intense and good

The NCST game about 10 years ago was up there too (when their players kept faking injuries to get a breather)

I got sunburned that game. At least it ended in exciting fashion

It was so hot last year someone knocked over my fresh beer and instead of having them replace the beer, I had him get me a water lol. Thought I was going to pass out between the heat and how much I was yelling.

yeah it was insanely hot. I was sitting on the sun side and a bunch of students were above me, a few tapped out early and left, more were sitting down trying to get shade from the people standing around them, only saw 1 or 2 go down down but that was no joke.

We smoked a whole *** gator for the tailgate I had popped earlier in the week and had one of the big 5 gallon jugs filled with ice water, leaving I was looking forward to drinking about 1/2 of that jug and while we were inside some UF *** hat tipped over the entire jug. probably didnt help to have a picked over gator carcass laying on the flatbed but is what it is.

Love it. Spin dip is horrible. Filet is about the worst cut of steak. Cookies for dessert?

Seems constipated! Pick one.
