September 5th 1987 in the Orange Bowl a favored gator team got spanked. The gator (tastes like chicken) canceled our home and home series, making it until 2001 before we played again . The QB was Kerwin Bell and Emmitt Smith their RB. I had 50 individual bets with 50 gators. My seat in the OB was in the middle of gator fans. A DB was substituted by the gator and he defended a Steve Walsh pass. A Giant of a man stood up and said that was my boy. He did that a few times BUT then Michael Irvin gave him a move and went 76 tards for a TD. The Giant forgot to stand up so I did and said wasn't that your boy? A Deerfield Coach I was with grabbed my arm and said see how big that guy is. Nothing happened except some dirty looks. We won 31-4 and we scored their points for them. Knowing this was it until 2001 I didn't want to leave the OB. There is an undefined pleasure beating the crap out of a rival that deserted the series and I kept that feeling until 2001.
