Another reason that you gotta appreciate the HBC ....

He's a little bored now but he's staying busy doing Dr Pepper commercials (2 and counting) with Larry.

He also drove out to his beach house by himself Sunday to check to see if there was any damage ... then he found a place to watch the game:

It’s absurd, the idea that a Hall of Fame college football player, a soon-to-be Hall of Fame college football coach, the winningest football coach in history at two SEC schools would stroll into a bar by himself on a Sunday afternoon.

But there was Steve Spurrier was Sunday, looking for a place to watch the South Carolina-Georgia game. The former Gamecocks head coach had driven from Gainesville, Fla., to Crescent Beach to check on his beach home after Hurricane Matthew. He was pleased to see almost no significant damage.

“Yeah, I hope the Gamecocks get it going,” he said. “They have excellent coaches there. They are doing a good job. Just a little light on big play talent, but I think they will be fine.”
