I wanted to pass this around from a buddy of mine...Gatorbogey!!
it's time to start talking up the Gator Gauntlet...pass around the idea on any and all other (Gator) boards you post on...let's get a new tradition started!!
we did an impromptu 'Gauntlet' last year to 'greet' the 'noles as they walked from their buses to the lockerrooms. Let's do it again this year for every home game.
opposing teams arrive about 1-1/2 before kickoff or so....anyone else have a better sense of when the teams arrive? i wanna say 1-1/2 to 2 hours before kickoff, does that seem right? the opposing team buses let the players off on the south side of the stadium on stadium road at the service lane adjacent to the gate 15/16 ramp next to the old gym.
Let's line the service road to the Swamp and give them the 'Gatorbait' chant and Gator Chomp! Maybe if someone has 'in's' w/ the Gator Band, they can get them to send some percussionists and brass down for the "Gauntlet" to perform the 'Jaws' theme.
Usually, right after the opposing team arrives, the Gator buses arrive and drive down that same service road to drop-off the Gator players at the lockerroom....with us there lining the road, it will be a great chance to greet the Gator players as well!
Anyone have any "Gator Flags" to run around the stadium to fire up the tailgatoring parties? maybe that's a task for the pikes and/or Delts or some other fraternity. A couple of Gator Flags for the Gauntlet would be great too!!!
let's get it going!!!!
Go Gators!!
Chomp!!

This sounds like a good idea NCgator. I'll let ppl know about it though half of them are lazy asses and dont show up to the game until 5 min before kickoff! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> I would like to do it though....
