‘Twas the night before Florida-Georgia, when all through Jacksonville
Not a tailgate was sleeping —fans ready for the thrill.
The flags were hung from their RVs with care.
In hopes that a victory soon would be there.
From tailgates to taverns old stories were spun,
Of historic comebacks and seasons hard-won.
Respect passed like a handshake, a smile, a nod
Two fanbases united by love for the squad.
‘Twas the night before the Florida-Georgia— the city alight,
Waiting together for Saturday’s 3:30 fight.
