I'm coming to Gainesville for Aggy vs Gatas

i was going to say you could park near the krispy kreme(corner of 13th and university), but google maps has shown me that there's new apartments being built in what used to be empty grass parking lots. this makes me sad because it was the closest you could get to the stadium without a parking pass.

I loved my trip to College Station, I hope a lot of Aggies travel to see the Swamp.

Enjoy your trip, park wherever you can. Students let you park at their houses for anywhere from $10 to $80 right there across the street from the stadium. Like it's been said, there's so many places to eat in Gainesville that you will find somewhere. There's literally something for whatever food you want.

Hopefully for the game day atmosphere it's a night game and the weather isn't rainy. I would say get there early and get to your seat. The band pregame is pretty standard but Florida sings their alma mater, does the big Orange and Blue chant, has a former player do the Mr. Two Bits chant, and has a few cool videos they show before the team comes on the field. All stuff that you may find cool as an opposing fan in a stadium you've never been in.

Enjoy your trip! I hope you run into a bunch of hospitable people in Gainesville like we did in College Station

Edit: I usually sit pretty low, but row 70 isn't that bad. If you look at pictures of the stadium, it goes straight up and you are pretty much on top of the field no matter where you sit. Your seats will be great, especially at the 25 yard line. You'll have a great view.

13 so I assume not student side.

If it's a day game you'll be in the shade. Those will be really good seats.

I personally like sitting a little higher so that I can have a better "birds eye" type view but my friends like getting on tv down low

Hope y'all enjoy it!

the swamp (the bar across the street from the stadium) is a pretty sweet place to pre-game. sometimes, the network cameras like to walk and pre-record before the game.

+2 for pearls on the way up.

It's right off 441 in micanopy. In a gas station but the food is top notch.

I miss doing the pearls challenge back in college.



Swamp is good for game day but good luck getting a seat. If you want to see most of the campus I recommend parking on the east side in the parking garage just east of 441.
It's a 15 minute walk to the stadium and there are always spots open around there if you get there early enough. You'll run in to tons of tailgates on the way that you can stop in.

Pearls is SO TASTY. I've never been there without a hangover though. Is it better or worse without the hangover?

You can park at my place for $20

441 is closed atm. Just north of Pearls. Grab some food then jump on the interstate.

20 bucks for parking? Where are you?

Damn that sucks. We always pulled off on 441 in alachua and came down to university. There used to be parking at the 441/university intersection across the street from Burger King. It’s been developed since my last visit.
