I'm a lifelong Gator fan, born in St. Augustine, raised in Jacksonville. Been out of state for way too long but always stayed true to UF. Have attended probably 100 UF games since 1966.
Go Gators

Been a Florida fan since I was 5 or so (1994). Grew up in New Orleans, so I don't really know how it happened. Went to and graduated from LSU in 2011. Never been to the Swamp yet, but this year for the LSU game will be my first time.

I was born in Gainesville while my parents were students there. Most of my family attended UF as well. Lifelong Gator fan. I attended my first game in diapers at the age of two in 1974. I have been to at least one home game every year since I was eight years old (32-year streak!).
Ironically, I obtained my Master's Degree from Troy University.
I have lurked around these boards for a couple of years, and finally decided to contribute. Go Gators!!!

Gator fan for a good 10 years, graduated there 3 years ago, thinking of going back for MBA. I have a family member there attending right now and a friend who recently got divorced, so I try to go down there as much as possible to party. Every year I miss that place.

Been a Gator fan since I was a kid in the late 90s (only one in my family and also I couldn't stand FSU since all the kids in my second grade class were FSU fans 
), but have been in Michigan since then. Currently in my senior year at Michigan State (explains my username). Might look into UF for grad school too.
Made my first trip to BHG 3 yrs ago
against Troy, and definitely want to go back again.

If you are going to the Swamp for the first time, GO BIG. Should be a great game, be sure to chant, "It's great to be a Florida Gator" walking down the ramp after the big upset.
Go Gators!
Go Gators!

Lived in the Irish Hills of Michigan for 9 years, pulled for MSU. Michigan fans are like Bama fans, they think they invented football.
Go Green, Go Gators

I'm not far from the Irish hills (when I'm not in EL). As for Michigan, I don't have a problem with the team (and hell, I actually did work for UM stadium a few years ago before I came to MSU) but yeah the fans are interesting.

Graduate from UF in December!!
Lifelong Gator fan...and don't know why. Neither of my parents graduated from any college....so it wasn't forced on me. I just became a Gator at a very young age, and have bled O&B ever since.

Born in Orlando in 86... parents divorced, moved to N.Alabama in 88. Been a Gator fans as long as I can remember, even though my step-dad tried to convert me to a Bammer. 
Have attended multiple Gator games, but none at the Swamp. Did get my first chance to visit the stadium in Feb, got to take my 1 year old daughter into the stadium and walk around. I love the open door policy.
I hate Florida State, Georgia and am growing more and more hateful toward Alabama... can't imagine why.
Gator for life... Frick Urban Meyer...

Been around the site a lot longer than most add date or post count reflects. Very happy to have this board. Thanks Chicken, and Go Gators!

Gator Alum, class of '85. Season ticket holder. Love each and every game. It's sad to see empty seats now. I don't know if it's due to the economy or that we have a lot of bandwagon fans.

Combination of both. Plus, most of the current students don't like/watch/follow football

Grew up in GA, but my grandparents had season tickets their whole life so I've been going to multiple UF games a year my whole life. We bought them a brick to put in front of the stadium and I have the replica here in Athens and I touch it before every game for good luck. Gators are still my number 1 even though I go to UGA and have become a UGA fan. Everybody knows who I'm really cheering for once I get to Jacksonville

3rd generation Gator, 7th generation Floridian. Born and raised in Sarasota.
Graduated from UF in '09 with a degree in Chemical Engineering.
Don't know how many games I have gone to in the Swamp, just know it has been quite a few. Have tried to go to at least one away game every year since I started at UF, Seen some great games with one exception...'05 Bama (but got the Dreamland experience so it was not all bad)
