Happy April Fools' Day: Pick The Most Foolish Gator

April Fools' Day is a day for those who have a sense of humor. If you don't have a sense of humor, I suggest you leave now before you're offended by this post.

Now that those people are gone, here are a few Gators who have done some foolish things lately. Also, if you are a fan of Sidd Finch, here's my lame attempt at a Gator version of Finch in 2008. On to the fools;

Gainesville City Commission: In a move to end Ladies' Night at several Gainesville bars, the City used their discrimination ordinance to call the promotions unfair. There's a huge problem, however. If Ladies' Night is unfair, so are discounts for students, military members and seniors, which exist at numerous businesses that aren't trying to get a chick so drunk that she ends up passed out in the Jimmy John's bathroom, eating a Big John (sandwich, not a guy).

Urban Meyer: Thought it was a good idea to confront a reporter in front of cameras and reporters. Hey, it took attention off of Tim Tebow's draft stock for a while. Oh wait...

Deonte Thompson: The First Commandment of Florida Football: Thou shall not speak unkindly of Tim Tebow's throwing motion. Even if you aren't trying to be rude and call the guy a legend five minutes later.

Tim Tebow: He graduated from UF reportedly as a virgin. I don't know how I feel about our society when the children of the Republican ticket are sexually active but the best quarterback in the SEC isn't. Joe Namath and Rex Grossman do not approve.

Erving Walker: 7 turnovers and 4 of 16 shooting in the BYU game. I know UF rallied from a 13 point second half deficit, but it got there because Walker started the half by literally throwing the game away.

Dan Werner: This is more of a career achievement award. But the own goal against Vanderbilt was a nice touch.

Not very funny, I am still waiting for the April FOOLS... gotcha!

I thought April Fools was about tricking people, or making a joke. This just looks like a lame attempt of calling Gators out…?

You can take this as I dont have a sense of humor if you want, what ever makes ya feel better.

All this stuff is relatively harmless, so they were being fools in the kindest sense. Something like Dunlap was not harmless. He could have got himself or someone else killed.

I voted for Tebow

But only because you should ALWAYS vote for Tebow no matter what the poll is about.
That, and spending 4 years in Gainesville around that caliber of women without partaking?! I always thought The Lord helps those who help themselves, no?

Also, for the record, I give Dunlap the biggest fool award for the next 5 years.

Gotta vote Tim.

Dunlap would be the clear and obvious winner if he was a choice, well said Ski.

Having one of my idols graduate from college a virgin is a little disappointing, especially when he is king of the school and could just snap his fingers and 10 girls would just jump on him from out of nowhere to do his bidding. But i guess sex isnt everything in life…. although it should be, well that and Gator football. THAT, my friends, is paradise.

Tebow Graduates!!!

……and Century Tower falls in ruins!

During my senior year, UF renovated Century Tower. (Did you know there are unused classrooms inside?) Anyway, every time I walked past the tower, I was so proud I did my part to keep bricks from falling out.

no kidding?

What did they do to renovate a tower?

All I remember of it is that they would play the bells every afternoon around lunchtime. I think it was probably just to irritate the Krishnas in the Plaza. UF is so built up now I barely recognize it!

Dandy Dan

Can he take on an entire City Commission and end up the biggest fool?!

Stay tuned!!!!

city commision

I think everybody on that list has gotten enough flack lately except for the city commission which needs to remove its collective head from a bullock’s buttocks.

Do a survey of Gator gals and they damn sure want ladies night!

btw, give Walker a break. He was working against Fredette. Only Boynton could match his athleticism.
