I have been a longtime Gator fan (1986), and a dedicated lurker here for many years but really never caught on to the posting aspect of the site. I come to the boards daily to read about the Gators and sometimes laugh at what has been posted from the negative people and the sunshine pumpers. I see so many who have developed relationships here and meet sometimes to tailgate at the games. Up until now, I have not had season tickets and only went to sporadic games. That changed today. We pulled the trigger, made a small donation and purchased season tickets in the North endzone sunshine seats for the 2017 season. I couldn't pass up the schedule and told my acountant (wife) there would never be a better year for home games

I am a recently retired Florida law enforcement officer (2013) and my whole family (except my SOW brother) bleeds orange and blue. I am so pumped right now because I can start planning now for who I am taking to the games. Thanks for listening to me. I will probably just go back into my lurker corner now.
