Best football memory was beating a very highly ranked halF asS U team in 1991 and then drinking for free all night long on my good friend and halF asS U alumnus's credit card

Best Gainesville memory was having a girlfriend who was in competition with her friend at Duke to see where they could have sex on campus... it was a very fun year!

Best football memories:
1. Flying out to Glendale to snatch a national championship from Troy Smith and OSU. We were outnumbered in the stands 2:1 but we still kept that place rocking all night.
2. The block vs South Carolina.

Best Gainesville memory:
Welcoming the 04s home at the drag strip after they won their first championship. Still miss those great Gators.

I'm sure you're shaking in your shoes. All we want is an air game.

Too many to name

Pot
Pot.

@Brad: It was a huge sports bar IIRC. Went there once in the mid-'90s.

Can anyone recall the name of the outdoor bar that was literally on top of a building on the south side of University near Main?

In the early 2000s/late 90s that was Sky. I think Mike B owned that place.

You went straight up stairs to get to it IIRC. Really unique setting. I wanna say it was about where the Great Southern Music Hall was.

Yes. Bouncer was at bottom of stairs. I think it was on top of Florida Theater? I can’t recall.

Right next to it...it was Sky for awhile and then 8 Seconds... stupid country bar.
Yep. I think I remember them having potted palm trees strung with lights. Oddly enough, I think it was a dance club. Outdoors on top of a multi-story building. Who'd a thunk?

2005 - MS in Horticultural Sciences

2009 - PhD in Horticultural Sciences

Then I did a 2.5 year post doc in wetlands restoration.

Best football memory

1. the 2006 champ game after Ginn returns the opening kickoff my wife says, I bet the bucknuts won't score again.

2. Spikes punting it into the north end zone after a pick six vs LSU in 2008. Great nutty atmosphere that night.

Best Gville memories

1. My first daughter crawling around the north end zone at the swamp

2. The crazy celebration on the street after back to back basketball championships. I was lucky to be there and watch those teams in person.
