Is Gainesville the trashiest town in the SEC?

I've been to most SEC towns and I hate Gainesville the worst, by far. The fans, nightlife, aggressive police - all suck. Plus, the drive is miserable, especially after a loss and a hangover.

Agree?

I've been there my freshman year back in 08 (when they hung 50 on us). The game sucked but I had fun there. Guess it helped I had a friend that attended UF so I could just crash at his place.

It can't be any worse than Starkville for sure from the stories I hear.

I don't wish anything on the residents there but to answer the question, I've been there once, there will not be a second time.

I think Stark Vegas has it beat. At least Gainesville gave us Tom Petty. Stark Vegas has produced nothing of value.

I've never been. I've heard it's a nice campus. But that's about it.

I'll probably never go after reading this thread.

Hell yes. Gainesville is a crap hole. I had family that used to live there and I hated going there to visit.

You can go a little south of Gainesville on 75 and go to Cafe Risque.

So there's that going for Gainesville.

The hurricane wind gust might make it a little more trashier, amirite?

Blueballs, you suck. *Stark Vegas is a shining city on a hill compared to those jorts wearing motherfrickers in Florida.

It really isn't a fun place. And The Swamp is more like The Dump
