I am shocked, shocked, to find there is weed use in
Was that ok? Did I display the proper amount of distain?
My biggest problem with this is not that Noah was caught or was dumb enough to have weed on him. It was that he was dumb enough to walk out of a bar with an open container. I’ve seen shoving matches at Italian Gator and sorority girls doing Pete Rose slides down the back stairs at Grog with GPD not even flinching. But an open container? SWARM, SWARM, SWARM! As if being 6-foot-11 didn’t draw enough attention, Noah had to be bouncing with a cup of cognac. Give credit to Noah on this point; a man only drinks a clear or brown cocktail. But he couldn’t man up and finish it inside.
Noah will now have to deal with NBA sanctioned drug tests and pay a fine or do community service for his punishment. But remember this; the embarrassment Noah will feel when he has to face Al Horford (who was also in town last week) will be worse than anything a judge or a message board could deliver.

Next to the towing companies, the enforcement of the open container law is the most notorious thing about Gainesville. I’m surprised Joakim forgot already. No one likes a sloppy Gator…

Sloppy Gator was also the last name of Cluck U before it was demolished to be a half finished condo that’s now bankrupt. I was there after the Jarvis Moss-South Carolina game and I was a very sloppy Gator.

I thought that got renamed to “Dirty Birds” and then it closed. Never stepped foot in the place though; it never looked up to health code.
I was referring to the school’s anti-drinking campaign that I’m sure you saw. All those “Most people have 0 to 4 drinks when they go out” posters all over campus. I was at UF from ‘03-’07, so we shared similar years there.

It’s absolutely ridiculous, but sure not confined to Gainesville. It is just as bad, if not worse in Athens, GA, and probably every other college town in America. I equate it to a speed trap on the interstate…..thanks for all that life-saving work officers!!
