I said its Great to be a Florida Gator!

Twice in 3 years!!! I kind of wish I still lived in GA to rub that in :) Um...wasn't GA ranked #1 at the beginning of the season. Poor Dawgs.

So as usual I took my camera and didn't take one picture of the festivities so ya'll will just have to use your imagination a little.

I met my friend Brooke out at The Village Pourhouse (bar in the village if you couldn't guess) to watch the Gators kick Sooner ass! Luckily her friend Jen, another fellow Gator, got there early so we had a few tables in the back. It wasn't a Gator Alumni bar but hey we got beer, watched the game, and had a seat. What more could you ask for. I guess a little Gator rowdiness would of been nice but Brooke and I represented for the entire bar. The TV by us was messed up so the color only showed Orange and Blue. Like we really cared about any other color anyway :). We both drank Blue Moon beer. For those of you who aren't beer connoisseurs Blue Moon is served with an orange...ere go our Orange and Blue beer. Brooke probably didn't even think of that but I certainly did when I ordered the first round.

I must admit it was totally different than watching the game in the South. Something about watching College Football with a guy in a suit next to you just ain't right, but hey do you son. I think I was the newest transient at the table so I still had that SEC blood running through me still. I spat off stats while Brooke and Jen guessed, but hey they held their own for being so far from SEC college ball atmosphere. The first half had us a little scared and unfortunately allowed for some of Jen's friends to talk a little smack. Even though we made it very clear if you are at our table you are rooting for the Gators, damn it. But leave it to the British guy (I don't' even know his name, whoops) to be the trash talker. Stick to soccer homeboy, we got the college football thang alright. :)

You know you are not in the south when the half time conversations consist of bachelorette stories including a blow up penis and a girl saying "Man if I had a big old penis like that I would be sticking it in everything." Toto I don't think we are in the south anymore. But leave it to my mother to drunk dial me after every big play so I got the FL flava, play by play after all. Overall I had a GREAT time. I wouldn't of wanted to spend it any other way in NYC, friends, beer and of coarse another National Championship! GO GATORS!!!!!!

I'm rolling at the fact that your mom drunk dialed you. SO FUNNY! I could so picture her doing that. Hope you had a Blue Moon for me!

with Tebow and supporting cast of players coming back for senior year, Gators are a lock to be in Championship Game in 2009.
