my neighbor at the time was a big Seminole. always wearing something. one the rematch was scheduled, we had a discussion on the game. my feelings were the Gators should have won by 2 or 3 tds in Tally. He thought the rematch was a tossup but they would win. I told him the Gators would win 49-10 because they would score 7 tds. he got a champagne bottle and said the winner would get it and the loser got some crappy beer. He argued the score with me and said there would be more than 1 field goal, so I told him I'd give him a fg and we'd take one and it would be 52-13. wrote that on the bottle and he wrote Noles 28-24. We have a picture with the bottle in New Orleans, but for a long time I had the empty bottle in my house with Orange and Blue beads, a "Geaux Gators" button and a sticker on it. When some ask why the score is wrong, I just tell them the Noles were better than I thought.
