    That turned out to be a classic (whether we won or lost)? And I mean you were locked in to go and for whatever reason, life “lifed” and you couldn’t make it to see it live in person?

    "cock" block. Was supposed to go to the game, some bs happened, and watched it from the lovely Ventura Apartments (no idea if that place still exists)

    For me, our first national championship.
    My friend and his current squeeze tried to convince me and mine to come along with them, but I couldn’t bear the thought of what a weekend in NOLA full of smug Half Ass U fans would be like should St Bobby and and his criminoles pull the same sh*t they had done just weeks earlier…
    They went and had the time of their lives - and I have regretted it ever since.
    Caveat – when our Gators got their shot at a second title in Arizona in 2006 (and nobody wanted to go with ME) I went by myself and had the time of MY life:)

    I was in attendance, but I missed the loss to Geoargia Southern (Cub Scout camping with my son)

    The 1995 Tennessee game when we scored 48 straight points. I was living on the west coast and just couldn’t make that one. I made almost every UF - Tenn game home and away under Spurrier, and still regret missing that one. Those were great times.

    Yeah was amazing. I watched it along with the loss a couple weeks before at Doak. A lot of people may not know that missing the Doak loss was a bad one to miss considering the NC! Not to mention the SEC between it. My love for ATL soared!

    Lucky you. I wish I missed that Miami game last year.
