FL GC Meetup?
 

This was brought up on another thread, but I figure we might try to start discussing it and figure out if we can make it happen.

So, would you want to come? When do you think would be best? What city do you think we shoud try to meet in?

In general, any ideas or suggestions?

I dunno if thats a good idea or not. Florida people like to rouse the party, we might get crazy. That would be one of the biggest threads, I can make sure of that.

I say we meet up in Orlando. That's not just because I'm biased. ;) I know there's a bunch of GCers who are in the Orlando area: sherbertlemons, adpiucf (well, actually, she's in Cali...nevermind), UCFPhiDelt, XOAlum, me, BetaRose, zetamarie, etc. Also, it's the middle of the state so it's pretty much equal driving distance for everyone. Think about it: if we had a meeting in Gainesville or Tallahassee, those poor South Florida GCers would be driving 7 hours. And likewise for the Gainesville/Tallahassee people if we had the meeting in Miami. So, Orlando is the best choice! Plus, there's a billion of places that we could meet up around here.
Cashmoney is right. The Florida meet up would be out of control. :D

When and where?

I like Orlando but dang, people got jobs and stuff, lol. If it is on a Sunday, that is probably about the only day I would be able to make it.

P.S. I know some cool out of state GCer's wanan come down to FL to chill too. Cream, roadtrip.

P.P.S. If UF Pike is there, someone is leaving with a black eye. And it ain't gonna be me.

Hmmm...I'm thinking January. I know that from now through December it's probably really hectic for everyone. For all the GCers still in school, finals coming up. And, for those of us who work, I think all of us are working extra hard to get those numbers up before the end of the year. Plus, with all the holidays, a lot of us will be with our families. I think that January gives us enough time to plan this. It also gives out-of-state GCers time to plan in case they want to come to Florida for the get together.
So, here's my opinion:

Where?: Orlando
When?: January

Let me know if anyone else has other ideas.

Orlando is fun, there's a lot to do there. On the other hand, if we were in Gainesville I could set something up so we could have a huge VIP party for ourselves, everyone would get in free and we'd have bottles upon bottles of whatever alcohol we wanted. It'd be on the roof top of 3 clubs. Its actually pretty pimp. And in January it's nice and cool out at night. The problem with Florida is that it's a big state. I know it's an hour and 1/2 away from Orlando, but I was thinking ( Gainesville) economically for those who wouldn't want to spend a bunch of money going out. There's been plenty of times where I've spent waayyyy too much money while being out in downtown Orlando. It doesn't matter to me where it is, I was just thinking of other people. That said, I was thinking maybe we should just have a Central/North Florida meet up and then a SoFL meet up. I'd go to both, but the entire state at one time....that'll be hard to get everyone to come. I'd think more people would show up if we had two different parties on two different dates.



On another note- Tampa would be fun. Maybe James would make it down for some of the best strip clubs in the state.


-I'd also like to have one of the meetings in G-ville so I could have Librasoul22 kicked out and make her ride back to Tallyho if she started running her mouth. lol. It'd be pretty phucked up if she got in line and they wouldn't let her in.....lol.

Number one, Gainesville is so beneath me. Number two, I don't know anything about waiting in lines.

Number three, I would much rather put a three inch heel in your azz than run my mouth. So if this GC get together happens, please bring an azz doughnut.

Anyone who would actually want to travel to Gainesville to go clubbing should be examined. Orlando sounds like a plan if we are going to do the nightlife.

EDITED: Cause I want smiley to come too. And bring rebelsong LOL. I will do an electric slide and kick all y'all azzes while I am at it. Just because.

With your attitude I'm sure you know all about standing in line, that and the fact that you don't set that a$$ out. And by the way, Tally isn't much better than Gainesville, it's still one of those dirty south college towns...full of hoes. Apparently you love being dirty south, you're still in Tally after you're done with college.

I was thinking G-ville for a central-north Florida meet up because its right in the middle of the area. Its easy access for all the people in Jax, Tally, G-ville and Orlando. Its pretty much the same distance for everyone to travel.

I dunno if smiley21 would come...but I'm sure it'd get rowdy if Rebelsong84 got up in the mix.

oooookay, back on topic.

If you want good restaurants and a nightlife, Orlando is the best pick besides somewhere in South Florida or Tampa. I just think Orlando is more accessible to everyone. No offense but there's not as much to do in Gainesville as there is in Orlando. You can't argue with that. :) I think we'll have more of selection on restaurants and/or clubs with Orlando. Plus, I would still love to have a Florida GC meet up and Orlando is definitely the best location for that as it is the middle of the state.

As nice a place as Gainesville is, I have to agree with Librasoul on this one. :)

I had A LOT of fun when I've visited Gainesville. But, seriously, Gainesville isn't exactly known for their clubs. Purple Porpoise? The Grog? (or however it's spelled...don't remember since I was drunk) These aren't as classy or renowed as Roxy, Tabu, or Antigua in Orlando. But, I don't think clubbing is exactly the best option for the first meet up. I'm all for a nice lunch somewhere.

My vote is still for Orlando! ;)

Those are bars you went to....grog and porpoise are bars, not clubs. And I guess I'm a little biased since I have a lot of friends there, but it really is a lot of fun.



And I don't know how many club you've been to....but Roxy and Tabu are not exactly "classy" places in my opinion. Think about it, you've been there. They got girls with some busted a$$ faces that show up there. I've met way too many dirty hoes in both those clubs, a lot of German chicks too. Antigua is ok, there's some hot chicks there if you go on the right night. I like House of Blues on a Sunday night, that $hit is off the chain. Thee Grotto is ok, Blue room can be fun. Slingapores, I always meet DGs there. I have a lot of fun there. If you want to go to a rest- How about Emrils in city walk? If we do it on a friday or saturday night.....I'm sure the Hard Rock theatre will have some DJ or something going on there for those who want to party after dinner and don't feel like driving downtown after killing wine at dinner. That could be fun. My friend Justin works at Emril Lagasse's place and my friend Ivory bartends at Hard Rock live. If you guys like that, I can talk to them and see if they can hook it up for us.

Or...Latin Quarter in City Walk? It's a restaurant (a really good one with AWESOME drinks) and it turns into a latin club at around 10pm.

Please, no latin places. I'm thinking you said that just to antagonize me.:p We'll see enough latin stuff if we go to the SoFL GC meet up.

oh lawd
 

If librasoul, cashmoney, smiley, and rebelsong all show up, please videotape this and send it to us!

That scene will be better than anything I've seen on reality television.
