    The GF & I are heading down to Tampa - Hard Rock Casino Thursday for a lil fun. Then over to Lakeland for the show on Friday. Then back up to Gainesville Friday nite for some partying and then pre-game tailgateing Saturday morning. Then on to Florida Field to watch my Gators try to save face (after the embarrassing loss to Bama image) by opening a can of WHUP_AZZ on those LSU boyz ! ! !
