Went to visit the younger heir at University of Florida last weekend.
Little did I know when I booked the flight and trip that it was Homecoming Weekend.
Traffic was rather interesting as a result.
Made it through the traffic jams, and had a great weekend. Took the kid shopping and errand running as I had a car and she did not. We hit her favorite restaurants as well.
We also went to watch the Gators play the Mississippi State Bulldogs.
I got us some decent seats in the end zone.
A field goal narrowly passed over our heads.
A crowd of over 90,000, mainly Gator fans, with a sprinkling of diehard Mississippi State fans watched it with us. Lots of good-natured banter went back and forth.
It got rather loud whenever a penalty was called on the Bulldogs:
The Gators seemed on the cusp of defeat when they were leading 23-21 in the 4th Quarter, with the Bulldogs inexorably advancing down the field into easy field goal range with little time remaining on the clock.
All seemed lost, and then the Bulldogs threw a pass and it was intercepted, and the Gators won!
A very exciting game, and I''m now 2 wins watching for Gators football live.
It was a great visit and a great time with the younger heir.
