While driving to the Gator Bowl the cops made the car in front of us turn left away from the stadium, upset at first we had to go further away but we ended up tail gating at the coolest place that had bid trees for shade, grass, room to toss a football, and a garage that was converted into a small bar called Billy's Place. Bathrooms were clean and lots of big screens, tables, a pool table, ping pong, etc.. What a great place, wish I lived in Jacksonville so I could use this gem over and over. 932 Albert Street about .5mi walk to stadium. We lost bad but I still had a great time.

First Ohio State Football game
Date:January 4, 2012
Only way my experience could have been better is if Ohio State won. A friend and I drove up from Port St Lucie the day of the game and got there early enough to hit the Bud Light tailgate party. Wasn't all that great, but for $10 it wasn't bad either. The food was great, beer was cold and people were just milling around. No fights broke out(not even close) and the seats in the stadium were AWESOME. My only complaint was I don't think the city of Jacksonville itself was equipped for the after-game crowd. We stayed at the Omni Hotel and when we went to get a bite to eat that evening in the Jacksonville Square(or whatever it is down there) the lines at all the sports bars were LONG.

TicketCity Comes Through

You guys really came through for me for Gator Bowl tickets. I originally ordered 2, one for me and one for my son, but found out 4 days later that my daughter was going to be free to go and wanted to surprise her with a ticket for Christmas as well. The ticket agent I spoke with worked very diligently to get me a ticket just 4 rows behind them, and being field-level and close, this was an incredible feat.
Thanks TicketCity!

If it is true that my msu Spartans are playing in the gator bowl this year, then this will be the first time since college I might get to see them play in person...not too shabby!
