GAINESVILLE, Fla. — The University of Florida Alumni Association and the University Athletic Association are teaming up to host the second “Rally in the Swamp,” a student pep rally to be held Sunday, August 23 to welcome students back to campus and get them ready for the start of the football season. The Gators kick off the 2015 campaign on Saturday, Sept. 5, against New Mexico State at 7:30 p.m. on the SEC Network.
Student gates on the East side of Ben Hill Griffin Football Stadium will open at 6:30 p.m. Prior to the event, students can play games to win prizes and the first 3,000 students will receive free Domino's pizza. Opportunities for campus involvement will also be showcased.
The event begins at 8 p.m. and will feature the Florida marching band, cheerleaders, Dazzlers, mascots, head coach Jim McElwain, members of the Gator football team and other student-athletes. Students will learn some of the great traditions that make Saturdays in the Swamp so special to the Gator Nation.
In addition, the Gator Ticket Office will be open for any students that still need to purchase 2015 season tickets.
Be sure to join the "Rally in the Swamp" Facebook event and include #RallyintheSwamp in your social media images and posts.
