wow I didn't realize you were in town for that long, we should have hung out more. yeah that is a whole different side of Gainesville with all the die-hard gator fans and stuff. The office I work in overlooks University avenue so we ended up with a ton of free food and just watched the parade from the window, if I knew you were in town you could have come and joined!

Homecoming was wierd, a whole different side of Gainesville came out and were wearing all the Gators shit that you look at in the shops and think 'no-one in their right mind would ever buy that' - but there they were.
I also got followed down Uni Ave by three very drunken jocks who were shouting 'Where you going, faggot?' and trying to walk right behind me. it was kinda scary but hilarious at the same time. if i was there i would have battered them all

That's the way things are normally in Gville, the Fest in an exception of this to an extent. "We" are normally quite a minority in the land of "Orange & Blue".

yeah, i wish i'd thought to mention it too. i was kinda bored during the day over the first weekend. i walked all the way to Wal-Mart and back for the sake of it, haha. got to see more of gainesville at my own leisure though, and when i doubt, i drank. also good. |
