The Swamp!

Last weekend, Michelle and I visited her parents in Florida. On a quick side note, two big pluses on visiting Florida is Chick-fil-A and Publix subs...love both places! Well, as everyone knows, Michelle and her mom got tickets to the Florida game for us. The whole experience was quite fun. It took us a longer to get there than we thought which means less time to tailgate. I was not too happy about that but knew I would still have time. After we parked, Michelle and her parents took off for the bookstore and I stayed at the car and started drinking a beam and coke. When they got back, we headed to a tailgate that Michelle's friends were at. They had a great setup. They had a slingbox hooked up to a computer so they were watching gameday and some of them were drinking PBR! WOW! A+ for this tailgate. We then headed into the game. It is a cool stadium and the weather was about perfect (70). Their defense started slow but their offensive despite not having Percey was rolling. We decided to leave at halftime (up 35-20) to hit up a bar called the swamp.

I was expecting Clemson prices but what I got was Chicago. A draft beer was $4.25 and a bucket of beers (6) was $22.50. The prices are jacked up for gameday and there are a couple other bars right around there that are a lot cheaper...from what I hear. Rumor has it there is a bar that has FREE natty light on Saturday nights from 8 until 12...that is amazing! Michelle said there used to be a picture of kelin (and the rest of the swim team) on the wall but it was not there anymore...the bar has moved on. We sat outside watching the game and drinking some beer. It was a great atmosphere! We left a couple hours later and headed back to the in-laws house. It was a fun time and hopefully, we can do it again soon.
