Georgia football: Rivalry with Florida is no cocktail party

Georgia football fans are preparing for what is known as the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. It’s the annual scrum with the Florida Gators on the banks of the St. John’s River in Jacksonville, Florida.

While the yearly event may have a festive sound to it by calling it the Cocktail Party, rest assured, on the turf at TIAA Bank Field (or, as us old-timers call it, the Gator Bowl) the atmosphere is never one of jollity.

To say Georgia and Florida don’t like each other is to say that the Democrats don’t like Donald Trump or that Dale Earnhardt fans didn’t like Jeff Gordon.
