We ended up staying at the Radisson downtown and got to see the team off. Also, the FAMU band was staying there, too, for their own game Saturday and for a show at the Dolpins game. I went to the Alumni tent dinner and it was fun. Got to see Mrs. Pres. and even Betty Castor, LeeRoy, too. I am so glad that I went to that -- and I was a walk up. I also saw quite a few people sporting our colors at South Beach on Sunday having a late breakfast at the outdoor cafes. It was nice to see USF folks still in town having a good time. I really enjoyed my trip save for the loss.

I'll arrive around three this afternoon. Where should I go? Where will all the USF pregame fun be? I dont want to be alone with my buddy in a sea of 'canes!!!

OK, so maybe it's old, but since we're talking cheerleader pics, I love this one that I took a while back and want to share it....something about the game in the blurred background makes it (I think) cool.

I'm telling you, you're gonna' want more cowbell

I'm in for the Radisson. The Florida Resident Special is $119 (you have to ask for it) and that is where the team is staying (and the cheerleaders, too, I hope!!)

Thank you everybody.....my buddy just called and he already got our tickets from the Orange Bowl ticket office.....I hope they are decent seats!

Don't laugh. In 1985 during my senior year somebody got us tickets into the Masters first day and we slept ELEVEN in one room in Augusta....I still remember the name of the place - The Courtesy Inn!

Word is that the USF block is sold out??? I want to go ahead and get my tickets and I need advice on what tickets to get from whom so that I can be in or as near as possible to the USF folks. I might just call the Orange Bowl and tell them I want to be in the USF area...any better suggestions??? Thank you! Rich

Is this for sure? I want to go ahead and pay for a room and just want to be extra sure before I do..... Thank you , Rich

Man, we stayed way after the game to watch the antics of the field rushers. Hilarious to see a few TSA guys juked out and lunging for air. I laughed my A** off watching. Only way I'm storming the field is if I'm in a pack of 5,000 or so.....

Mailman just brought my son's SI ten minutes ago. Wooohoooo! What a HUGE picture -- it's not often you see a two pager!

I will since, hopefully, there will be students there! I wish I was 20 again!!!!

Yes. 280mm Canon.

Note to self: This week get more coed pictures and forget the game!!!! ;D

I knew you all were perverts!!! ;D It's tough to get those shots and be undetected by the Mrs. LOL
