Interesting ideas but until the Bull Gators get together to demand change nothing will happen. Now I bet he is not happy with the 9 and feels that he has failed them. I don't get the way he has run his interactions with the press, surely he knows better. Perhaps not.

So do the legwork and get pricing.

I emailed a company about it yesterday, here's their response.

So they wont fly over the stadium during the game. That pretty much kills the idea. But man it would have been great to see the dopey look on that fckers face to look up during the game and see one of our creations.

Dude, if we did this there would be pictures taken and it would end up in the newspaper, maybe even in the local news. It would probably be grabbed and made national news.

I agree, but my only reason for wanting to do it is to see the pain and disappointment on his face when he sees it. If it's not during the game and he's not on the field waddling around lost when it flies over it takes most of the joy out of it.

Fck it, I'm still game if enough of you are.

How long would the flight be over tailgate? How many passes?

First and foremost, what would the message be? Other than GATORCHATTER.COM, I'm not sure what other message to send.

Banner can be an implied message. Then if any media 'spundip' chastizes us spoiled Florida fans, it means they made the leap that it was insulting McElwain :

[GATORCHATTER.COM = THE FIRING SQUAD]

Here's what I sent him yesterday.

Ok, I've got a few more questions.
1) How long will the flight take place over the tailgate? Or is there a certain number of flyovers?
2) What's the limitations on what we can say? For instance will "UF deserves better" or "Fire Mac - GatorChatter.com" be acceptable? No cursing of course just curious to how creative we can get.
3) Does spaces count against the 36 count maximum letter count?
Thanks

And here is his response.

Message can be of your choice.... I don’t like to fly vulgar language. Spaces do not count. We can squeeze 42 letters if needed. Flight is one hour take off to land from the Gainesville airport. Gives you 45 minutes over the tailgate. What date are you requesting?
