Is UF excited about Meyer? 58,000 say yes

GAINESVILLE -- There was a massive pep rally Friday night.

A radio station in Jacksonville did a two-hour pregame show Saturday morning.

The first half was nearly over, and there were hundreds of fans still outside standing in line to get tickets. Except there weren't any more tickets. So fans actually bought blank slips of paper to get them into the stadium.

"Unbelievable," longtime University of Florida ticket manager Bill Holloway said of the record 58,498 fanatics who showed up for the Gators' spring scrimmage on a sunny, honey of a Saturday afternoon. "Until today, we've never had a spring game where we didn't print enough tickets."
