I'll repost a bit from one of my earlier discussions with an LSU fan on this board:
"Gainesville is fun, nothing like what I saw in BR [last year], but better than most places. You're pretty much guaranteed to have a good time if you stay on University Ave. Check out Gator City, Salty Dog, Ballz, Grog. They're all right in midtown (across from the stadium).
My favorite bar was Mothers which is about a 15 min walk East from there. If you're feeling adventurous I'd recommend exploring the area north of University, but east of NW 22nd St. They call it the student ghetto and it's where you'll run across many house parties and yard tailgates. We are, for the most part, a fun and loving people so don't be afraid to approach. Just bring your own beer or you'll be looked upon as a leach (you can always fill up your can/bottle at the keg). A pretty universal concept actually."
Also, don't mess with the Gville cops. They can be dicks.
Nothin but respect for opposing fans who make the trek. Have fun.

As for the post above I would agree with everything said.
But whatever you do while walking around DO NOT HAVE AN OPEN CONTAINER IN YOUR HAND ON SIDEWALKS OR STREETS. Officers will ask whats in the cup and check. I've even seen people arrested because they gave the officer a hard time about it. As long as you stay within the tailgates its not a big deal. Also Im pretty sure there are no kegs allowed at on campus tailgates and i know there are no drinking games allowed. Its part of the Presidents crack down on drinking.
