If you think every School including us does not have jerks you are mistaken

Oh, I know LSU has their jerks. I know Mizzou has them. I know Duke has them. I know Ohio State has them, etc etc etc.

But I also know that all gameday experiences at those schools are not the same because there are jerks at each.

It isn't just the fan interaction. It's more than that. I had better fan interaction at Bama than Tennessee, but Tennessee had the Smokey Mountains so it helped make up for what some of their fans lacked.

The problem is a UF trip doesn't have the Smokey Mountains. It doesn't have the tailgate environment LSU has with NOLA nearby providing top notch dining options. It doesn't have The Grove, it doesn't have downtown Nashville for example.

IF you can parlay a UF trip into something with Disney or Miami, or Tampa it makes it alot better, but outside of that the trip sucks.

The fans are as bad as you will find, the dining is about as bad as you will find, the climate/weather is about as bad as you will find, the police is about as bad as you will find and the opportunities for visiting fans to truly be welcomes is as bad as you will find.

If you know people or live in the area it helps with alot of that...if not, it sucks.
