I was down your way this week .. actually a little southeast of Tampa, but I feel for you ... so many Gators... to bad it's not open season. :hihi:
OrlandoTiger has it made, I lived in Orlando in the late 80's early 90's when LSU was everyones whipping dog. Hard to talk trash to all the gator/hurricane/seminole fans when your team has a hard time winning 5 games a year. At least I knew a few more Tiger fans there so we shared the abuse.
Yes these days it is fun to live here as a Tiger fan and even lst year as a Saints fan!! But the Gator fans are ruthless right now, if you try to have one decent conversation about football it turns into "yes but we have won back to back to back championships!" Blah,blah, blah! Makes me want to puke! I will say it is fun to finally get to toture the FSU and Thug U fans! I like to hit them when they are down!
wait are you saying florida fans are having success and letting other people know about it. i don't know, that doesn't sound anything like the classy humble florida fans found throughout the nation in their underground lairs and evil cave hideouts, God I hate them so much!!!!!!
Soon they will be calling for a Quarnasty! "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women." Can't wait for Tiger football!
It's more about how you brag. If you've never been in that area for a certain amount of time, just go down stay a few weeks and you will come back a changed man/woman. There's bragging rights .. and then there's gator fans. BTW duct tape was made for the gator chomp.
I actually did that at a bar one day when a Gator fan passed out! I think we may still have that picture somewhere. It wasn't digital but I could scan it and post it if I find it! He was PISSED when he woke up though!!!:hihi: I hate the Gators also!!!
i went to gainesville for the game in '98. after a weekend i decided i would never go back. i did not run into one nice, welcoming fan the whole time i was there. i little ribbing is customary but we were cursed out by everyone in sight including an elderly couple after the game. i was kicked in the shins by a 6 year old. it doesn't matter young or old, they suck. i will say though that two of my quicker and clever comebacks came in the two above situations. when the 6 year old kicked me , my girlfriend at the time and others asked, "did she just kick you?" i respnded with "you can't blame her. it's the hormones, with her being 3 mos pregnant and all." (this was before the game) after the old lady cursed me out while we were trying to get in our car after the game, i simply pointed and said: "grandma, the cemetary's that way." sometimes i find it best to sink to someone's level so they can understand you. the worst thing is, these were unprovoked attacks. i've been with people who've started something or were acting just as bad as the opposing side but these people are vicious. we got separated from our friends after the game and i actually thought my girlfriend and i were in physical danger on the way back to the car. (well, except from the elderly couple, i coulda taken them. )
