2009 Florida Gator Fan Day Big Draw

This just in… Tim Tebow was a big draw for fan day. This was the title of a headline on Gainesville Sun which anyone with common sense could have told you this.  But what I couldn’t have told you would have been about an individual who drove all the way from the University of Louisville with his roomate to arive Saturday night around 10 PM and stay in the car until others began arriving at 4 AM.  That’s right, 4 AM!

When asked why make the long drive and trip for fan day:

“Tim Tebow – the only two words you need,” he said.

As even Stevie Wonder could have seen, the person that had the most lined up behind their table was Tim Tebow.  There was a line at the O’Connell center from the door that would have looped around the entire building of people lined up an hour before the doors even opened.  I was downtown momentarily to look at the fans line up and talk to some.

We actually ran into a fan who already purchased our Ultimate Heisman T-Shirt and couldn’t wait to get in to see Tebow:

I’m hoping I can get it signed by Tim.  I know they say they won’t allow it but who knows.  At the very least I can get a picture in this shirt with him.

We’re waiting for the picture!  It looked as though fan day for 2009 was a great success.  You can view photos of the 2009 event here.
