Homecoming Tailgate – Gainesville, Fl

Homecoming is always a special event during the fall. To be able to enjoy it with my sisters is even better.

Rather than going out to eat, we decided to tailgate and cook up some hotdogs on the grill. Plus we got to enjoy it with chips and queso, macaroni salad, and of course beer.

Sometimes taking it easy and just relaxing is the best thing.

Tailgating – Gainesville, FL

So there I was walking down University Avenue and I smell of BBQ was in the air. Across the street in a parking lot, I saw the jumbo smoker. They were serving freshly smoked pulled pork.

I knew I had to get some before they ran out. They started so early in the morning in order to get the bark on the pork just perfect. I wish I could have just had the pieces of bark. The sandwich I got was great and went so well with my beer before the game.

The Swamp Restaurant – Gainesville, FL

Tailgating the a fun thing to do during college football season. But every now and then it’s fun to go out and have someone else do the cooking.  When I am visiting Gainesville for a football game at my alma-mater I always have fun when I got to The Swamp Restaurant.

Getting there early is a must in order to get a table, otherwise it is standing room only. This applies to before the game as well as after. While you are waiting to go over to the stadium, you can catch up on all the other college football games going on around the country.

I really enjoy their wings when I visit. They have a few different flavors to try so you are not stuck with just one. They have a full bar, but it wouldn’t feel like college unless you get a bucket of beer.

If you are in town for a football game or just passing through check them out. Visit their website at: www.swamprestaurant.com

Enjoy!
