Don’t care about them crying about their Tom Petty tribute.

His wiki page says he claimed he never remembered planting that tree at UF.
This tradition is the most contrived thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

Bunch of methnecks up in that crowd.

The band plays to a schedule that is worked out with the Florida band. Florida fans are too stupid to understand their own band and PA operator are part of this.

Florida fans sure do seem like pussies when it comes to Tom Petty.

I kind of figure that Tom Petty didn’t really give two shits about sports, much less the Florida Gators football team.
When he was growing up, the Gators sucked at football. Petty was already a rock legend by the time the Gators became consistently good.
I agree with those who think this Tom Petty/Florida bullshite is contrived.
Can someone produce one authentic photo of Petty in any UF clothing?

frick Florida. Would have been a better tribute if they had rolled his arse out to the 50.

Class? CLASS!?! this is coming from a school whose football team carried around tiger skeleton on the sideline during a game after Mike VI died.

The Tom Petty bullshite is so hilarious to me. He had zero connection to the school, much less the football team, outside of growing up in Gainesville. I hope LSU ruins that cringe “tradition” every year.

Again, how does that make him tied to the university? He got a paycheck for a summer and he is sacred?
Posted on 10/16/22 at 9:19 am to TheDude321
If the band has grown a spine again, can we get them to play Neck?

Per my wife, former Tiger Band member, the director knows when the band is allowed/not allowed to play anything. That's why he's always wearing a headset throughout the game. Both bands are allowed and not allowed to play at specific times, mainly so they don't play over each other. If they were told not to play during any of the Tom Petty song, they would've been told to cut the music immediately.
Florida fans just being too dumb to know this.

HAHAHAHA Florida fans accusing anyone of being classless is ironic.

So they should be honoring Tom Petty the groundskeeper, put his name on the stadium or some $hit, why bring up his songs that none of the coeds even know the words to. It was weird watching them sway to songs they never heard in their lives!

Classless is having "tom petty day" interrupt our game.
Classless was awarding the Baseball National Championship rings during the Florida LSU football game and other classless things Florid does.
We are so deep in their head they have no idea how to get us out. They constantly try to throw shade a LSU
