Katie and Sarah went to Florida so all season I've been invited to parties to watch the games as well as catching it at random bars we were at so that they wouldn't miss anything. I've learned a few of their cheers (ooooorange! bluuuuuue!) so I don't feel too left out at the bars and I will even dress color appropriate...although my only shirt with any orange on it is my hooters shirt, so needless to say I usually stick with blue. Even when we went to watch Katie run the marathon in NYC we tried to include gator colors in the shirts we made to cheer her on! Ours were Blue and Hers was Orange.
Well Last night Lindsay, Becca and I along with a whole group of Katie's friends went to Bailey's grille and pub in VA to watch the game. Evidently that's the rebel Florida alumni bar (the official bar is where the old fans go, and the younger fans adopted this bar instead). My expectations weren't very high, but I figured it would be a good game anyway, but to my surprise the Gators kicked OU's butt! At first it was kinda close, and then the gators got a questionable touchdown. Sarah felt pretty strongly that they couldn't win by one touchdown at that rate because that wasn't how she wanted them to win....well she got her way when the Gators won 41-14.
As a side note have you ever played checkers and gotten to a point where literally no one could move? (I'll try and post the board pic later) Well Lindsay, Nate, and Katie played a game where a few moves into it the board was locked up! crazy! (checkers were built into the tables) Also I'm way excited b/c Katie's friends Nate and Paul live down the street from me so they were nice enough to give me a ride home last night as well as this weekend. So after a pit stop at Taco Bell ( I didn't get anything) they took me home. I am exhausted at work today but surprisingly not hungover!
Congrats to all the Gator Fans out there! What a great way to celebrate 100 years of football!
