Hit the Brown Derby,Steak and Shake and Sonny's BBQ. Not all in one day though.

You must be old....... The Brown Derby burned down years ago


"In January 1995, a fire destroyed 10,000 of the building's 14,000 square feet. Investigators said arson was the cause, although who set it remains a mystery.

The building, its stone facade charred, sat empty for years. Eventually it was rebuilt and in 2000 opened as the Hoda Center, one of Gainesville's two Islamic centers."


I guess you could still go there and hang out.

DRINK, Had lots of practice doing that the last couple of seasons in D-1, with all the rain.

At Maple Grove, you can always go to Park Place Restaurant/Finish Line Pub across the street during a delayed/cancelled day.

A few years ago my buddy tony morris brought his restored mini cooper(the real mini)to gainesville and 5 of us squeezed into it and went to dinner on friday night..multiple car loads of college kids were beeping at us,and you should have seen the people come out of the restaurant to watch us get back in that car after dinner

I'll be 57 this year.

I have been to the Gators from 1973 to 1999. Had my bachelor's party there in 1983.Later in the 80's they moved the date back one week on my anniversary date. I got away with it for years but with so many Nationals now ,I have been cutting that one off the list. But I loved it.

In the early 90's we started using a motorhome and staying at the track, so that was the end of the Brown Derby.

My favorite pastime in a situation like that was to hunt up a group of Ford racers and start an arguement about horsepower!

Now your talking!

Some guys really know how to have fun during the rain....

But I have to believe that would be a good time, rain or shine....
