Watch: Georgia grocery store is selling whole, skinned alligators ahead of Florida vs. UGA
When you think about college football rivalries, Michigan vs. Ohio State certainly has to be at the top of the list. Alabama and Auburn have a pretty heated rivalry, too, and who could forget Army-Navy or Texas vs. Oklahoma?
College football has some intense rivalries, but we've left out one big one down in Jacksonville, the "World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party," featuring the Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators.
These two programs have met every season – except for a wartime interruption in 1943 – since 1926. It's one of the oldest and most enduring rivalries in the country and this year's edition is going to be a good one.
The No. 1 Bulldogs will look to defend their undefeated record against the 5-2 Gators.
There's no love lost between these two programs. So much so that Striplings General Store in Bogart, Georgia (which is just outside of Athens) is selling whole, skinned alligators for Bulldogs fans to grill up for the big game.
Striplings looks to specialize in cheese and meats and technically, gator is a meat, right?
"Hey Bulldogs and Gator-haters! Get ready for the ultimate feast for the GA/FL game! Reserve your whole gator today or grab some GATOR MEAT!" Striplings wrote on social media (h/t Fox 35 Orlando). "That's right, folks! While the Gators might be fierce on the field, they're no match for our taste buds! So, why not celebrate our inevitable victory by sinking your teeth into some delicious gator meat?"
UGA is a 14.5-point favorite heading into the game, so Gator might be on the menu down at EverBank Stadium as well.
