re: Advice on Game at the Swamp

I lived in Gainesville for awhile for work and have been to 2 games and didn’t have any negative experiences with UF fans. The town definitely is crap though. Best to just get in and get out. If your flying in to Jville or Orlando just get a hotel there. For parking couldn’t tell you any tricks, just drive around campus closest you can get to the stadium and find an available lot.

Don’t.
The Swamp is a dump and Florida fans are the absolute worst.

Park by the hospital. About a quarter mile walk, but worth it because you are right by the interstate.

Bring plenty of Gatorade especially if the game is during the day!!

Been twice and never really had an issue. Parking does suck. Do not go for the tailgating because it is horrible. Go for the game and leave and you should be fine as long as you are not walking around drinking wearing the purple and gold like others have said. Go in a bar and drink before the game on that little shitty strip next to campus. Forgot the name of it.

We absolutely took over Gainesville in '98 coming off the miraculous 28-21 victory the year before in tiger stadium. Their fans said they had never seen anything like it. Even the cops were laughing at how we were everywhere. Anyhooch, not a whole lot to do or see in Gainesfart but the stadium is nice and one of the louder stadiums. Whatever you do don't park illegally or they will tow you.

frick Gainesville. I went twice and it was miserable both times. Their fans are the worst. The campus isn’t that nice. The setup in the stadium is terrible, with UF putting visitors next to areas of students. I was next to a bunch of loud, drunk assholes at both games.
Prepare yourself. Hopefully you will be able to talk a ton of shite after a great win.

Don’t get caught bringing liquor into stadium because they will arrest you. I watched a cop walk up 40 rows to arrest two baws minding their own business because they had a flask under their seat.
One of the guys on our trip was arrested for sneaking a flask in when he entered. Ironically the FL fan we were with had his ticket confiscated but was not arrested.

Leave one shoe loose tied. May come in handy later...

Nothing tickles me more than reading LSU fans’ worst trip to Gainesville stories.
Posted on 8/26/22 at 11:05 am to jtt1225
Don't and I mean DON'T walk around with an open beer.

People are being harsh! Being an LSU fan in Florida I have seen the tigers play in the swamp 7-8 times.. I’ve always had a good time and was welcomed with open arms. Some people suck but that’s at any away game. (Be prepared for subpar food at the tailgate)

Get tickets right by the UF student section and wear P&G body paint. Did it in 2002 and it was a blast.
