Was Florida obsessed with Petty before he passed away?

I don’t recall really hearing the Gainesville connection until he overdosed. Just wondering if he did anything with the university after he became famous

Hell no
They’re just trying to build some kind of tradition.

He had a park here and was always considered Gainesville big star. Just because you douches didn’t hear about it doesn’t mean it isn’t real.

When you'd go to a house party in Gainesville people would often say it was Tom Petty's old house. Sure seemed like he had a lot of houses.

He’s from Gainesville and has had a connection with the town throughout his career. 88K people joined together and sang “won’t back down” after this death in a cool tribute 4 years ago. It’s not our fault ESPN won’t stop talking about it

Why does it bother people that much on this board. Tom Petty has connections to the University, and his hometown is Gainesville. Who cares if they started a great tradition after he died. I don’t understand the hate. Then again, it seems like LSU fans doing the hating, and y’all do get worked up over the weirdest shite. Like a school calling themselves the University of Louisiana. Find something else to get upset about losers.

Petty himself couldn’t wait to get away from that area.
