***Official Game Thread BBALL*** Florida vs Baylor

[Marine1]

Woke up this morning about 5am and had nothing going on today so decided to call my son and see if he wanted to make an impromptu drive to Gville for the game. Of course, he was all in. 4 hours later we’re in town eating Larry’s subs and buying more Gator gear we don’t need. Headed over to the O’Dome and enjoyed a great game.

Now it’s all about the Salty Dawg, Swamp and The Social for a day of well deserved adult beverages.

Nice way to spend a Saturday.

Sounds like a great day Marine, but Larry's over Hogan's? Oh well to each his own, LOL. Too bad the afternoon can't be the Porpoise and original CJ's but time marches on!

My entire family is obsessed with Larry’s Subs. Not sure why but we get one every trip.

Always preferred the Salty Dog over Purple Porpoise but I have to admit I do like the new Social. Food is good and like the rooftop bar on a good day.

Now CJ’s is another story. Had some absolute legendary times there. Miss that place!

Well you are taking one for the team at Larry's. I like the Salty Dog as well and admit that the Social does have good food as far as sports establishments go. And the scenery at the Social is usually A-1. And for any of us who went to school at UF in the day, we all probably have a legendary story or 2 or 3 from CJ's!!!! Safe travels.

Hogans is the real deal but driving four hours to watch the game today proves real gatorhood. We need more fans like you.

I am a big sandwich guy. I have eaten at Larry's Giant on trips to Jacksonville and Charleston. I guess I need to try Hogan's my next trip to Gainesville.

Great win!
Better movement on Offense.
Only grabbed 3 O rebounds --- gave up 11.
HOT 3pt shooting won the day: 56% WOW!
FT's were a horrible 59%.

Hopefully we keep improving and hit our stride in March.

Go to the old Hogans where the old Albertsons was. The mac salad is good too. Bring cash.

Wasn't home to watch the game but I was able to listen to Mick, sounds like our boys were locked in today!

 

[MidwestChomp]

Good win. Poor FT games will happen, but surprising considering this team is pretty good at the line. Glad they shot well to cover that up. Go Gators...keep winning.

Is that Hogan's still there? What replaced Albertson's?

Agree. I always reference cases like this with miami fans who list their endless reasons for not having better attendance. Couldn’t tell you how many times we’ve done similar trips up for a game, sometimes returning that night. Awesome job by Marine today. As you said, every school needs more fans like that.

Btw, your Eagles/noles correlation comment in the other thread was garbage. Didn’t deserve it’s own reply, but wanted to let you know.

Big Lots. Albrertsons was my favorite store I lived minutes away from it.

I know, I was just hating on fsu and piling on Philly. btw I am a huge eagles fan next Sunday. My comment was like saying noles embraced the ideology of whatever group we hate today.

That is the only Hogan's in town, the original one on 13th. Been eating there since 1986. The most recent other one was on 34th and Williston and he sold it to a guy who worked for him and made him change the name. Called "Hero's" now. It's okay. The Albertson's has been turned into a Big Lots and a Plasma Center.

 

[stephenPE]

I didnt know about the one on 34th changing. The other one always made sure you knew they we were on 13th when you called ahead so you didnt go to the other one.

We really do love Larry’s big Italian sub but the other reason we go there is because it’s on the same grid as the rest of our activities. When we run up for a game we usually stay at the Holiday Inn on University Ave and 13th St. We park the car and walk to midtown pregame, walk to the game, walk back to midtown...and then walk back to the hotel. Many adult beverages are consumed in this process so we don’t drive. Not to mention I am getting more like Mr. Wilson as I get older. Traffic pisses me off.

Durty, where were you at during this game?? Oh wait cause we WON

 

[Jbossgator8]

funny how a thread about a game we WON turns into a food thread
