Just officially got my tickets 
Only second away game I'll be going to (first being Auburn). Hopefully the swamp doesn't disappoint. Any must-do's in good ole gainesville?

Hit up the "Swamp" across the street if you can...will be packed but on Sunday is not too bad.
Great place but they will run their mouths before hand...if they lose, you will not hear a peep.

Watch it buddy. PLENTY of LSU fans wear jean shorts at Tiger Stadium!
True story... I was at a game last year in Gainesville and saw an actual part of JORTS... on a dude. He had a UF Sailing shirt on. I was like "why dude... why?".
I've seen plenty of "jorts" on women and NEVER complain about that but hadn't seen them on a guy in a long time.
Although... Anthony Bourdain Wears JORTS

lol just messing. Only saw "few" people wearing them when we went. First person we saw my friends ex girlfriend called him out on it and the guy freaked out. It was pretty funny but that was the last time we said anything to anybody about it.

try and sit on the first row right behind one of the big orange walls. it puts you front and center. we did that in 04 and an entire corner of the stadium hated us for all the shite-talking we were doing.

i learned pretty young to watch what i say when at an away game- there's always a group of more people than you have looking for a fight

Haha I'll keep an eye out for the jorts. Do you have to go to the stadium pretty early to get good seats? I don't want to be stuck in the upper deck if I can avoid it. I would say you could get to an lsu game pretty late and still get relatively good seats but I don't know what protocol is in the swamp as a visitor.

I may be talking out of place, but aren't your tickets reserved seats? I've never seen general admission tickets at FL games. But then again I don't get away tickets for them either.

Do you mean general admission as in sit wherever you want in a certain section? If so, that's actually what I was asking about. I didn't know if you get an assigned seat or if you just get a ticket for a section and you can sit wherever you want in that section.

I'm not real sure with the visiting teams block. But I do know the block is on the 20 yd line, East stands right behind your band. Good view from anywhere there, just hotter than hell if it's an afternoon game.

I don't think there are general seating tickets at the games. I've never seen any.

I'll repost a bit from one of my earlier discussions with an LSU fan on this board:
"Gainesville is fun, nothing like what I saw in BR [last year], but better than most places. You're pretty much guaranteed to have a good time if you stay on University Ave. Check out Gator City, Salty Dog, Ballz, Grog. They're all right in midtown (across from the stadium).
My favorite bar was Mothers which is about a 15 min walk East from there. If you're feeling adventurous I'd recommend exploring the area north of University, but east of NW 22nd St. They call it the student ghetto and it's where you'll run across many house parties and yard tailgates. We are, for the most part, a fun and loving people so don't be afraid to approach. Just bring your own beer or you'll be looked upon as a leach (you can always fill up your can/bottle at the keg). A pretty universal concept actually."
Also, don't mess with the Gville cops. They can be dicks.
Nothin but respect for opposing fans who make the trek. Have fun.
