I was huge baseball fan when i was little and my Dad took me to a bunch of LSU baseball games. They were winning championships every year back then so it was easy to become a fan of them. Became a U of I fan when my wife took a job here. Kinda sucks because they are fricking terrible at everything but we get free tickets to everything so i can't complain too much.

Moved to Ocala in 94.
Never really watched CFB. I was a die hard E. Smith fan.

Got tickets to UF vs FSU in 97. Went to the game. By half time I was hooked. The atmosphere, crowd, noise was just insane. I had seen such passion in a crowd before.

Smith + that infamous night made me a Gator fan. Goal was to go to UF since that night. Did. Now I will die a Gator. Chip Kelly or not.

Well, initially I was a fan of the brick which found its way through the window of Bill Curry's office.

My Uncle (UGA Alum) always pulled for Bama when they weren’t playing UGA. For whatever reason I always liked Bama more as a small child (tail and of Bryant era/Perkins years). I have family that went to both schools but I always liked Alabama.
