My first and only trip to Gainesville was one of the worst road trips I've ever been on in the SEC (have been to every stadium except Knoxville). We were harassed by cops constantly outside while tailgating and also once again inside (literally went down the LSU rows one at a time and checked every ticket and were frisking people who were already in and seated)

Multiple UF fans apologized and said they know their cops are strict and dicks and blamed their President, but I have no desire to go back.

I understand your sentiment. UFPD and Gainesville PD are notoriously bad about picking fights with regular people who aren't harming anyone. It's basically a rite of passage for UF students to get nailed with an open container violation at least once.

Keep your experience in mind next time you hear about a UF player getting arrested for some dumb shite like barking at a police dog.

There is a new president and from I can tell it is considerably more relaxed.
