This was around 20 years ago during the NCAA tournament. I was at a wedding in New Orleans and I saw a good bit Florida basketball players leaving the hotel (New Orleans was hosting a portion of the tournament). Long after the wedding reception was over we were still having drinks when they came strolling in. They were in about the same shape as we were. They got upset the next day. They were a 2 or 3 seed from what I recall.

Quick internet search says this could be true. It was 2001 Tourney South Region opening rounds in the Superdome. #3 UF won on the Friday over #14 W. Kentucky 69-56. Then were trounced by #11 Temple 75-54 on Sunday.

That Saturday night/early Sunday that you saw them would have been the night before the Sunday game.
