All the people in D.C. looked at me funny when I said I was going to Florida to see a spring football game, but it was totally worth it. I, along with Gator Nation, have been waiting four months to see what the Gators would look like under new Head Coach Will Muschamp and Charlie Weis at OC. The offense was kind of disappointing, but it is a new system, and the defensive line and linebackers are absolute beasts.
I went to the game with Pabst and Proemsey. It was at noon and so hot. I was pretty pumped to see that they busted out the Orange jerseys for the Orange defense. I was taking photos basically the whole time and I got a ton of great pics. We got really good seats about tens rows back. I was looking at the photos they had on Gatorsports.com, and mine were better even though I was in the stands and their guy was on the field. I should just move to O-G'ville and be a sports photographer.
At half-time, they unveiled the Heisman winner statues of Steve Spurrier, Danny Weurffel and Tim Tebow outside the stadium. Then, in the second half they played mostly backups on offense, so it was mostly dominated by the defense. I had a great time though, and after the game we checked out the statues. After the game we got food and rested ourselves before going out hard, or as Primz would say, "Doin' what real Gees do!" and I invented a new drink... the 22 oz. Zipperhead, and I am suffering today because of it.
There are a lot of pics in this post because I like so many of them. I took a couple hundred all together, so paring it down was kind of hard to do. These are probably my favorite photos that I have taken, so enjoy.
really really awesome. and really really jealous.
