Citrus Bowl Sign Wave ***AND*** Ron Paul Blimp
Florida vs. Michigan
2008 is going to be a Ron Paul Year! Let's start it off right.
70,000+ screaming fans all passing by 1 of 4 corners and we will have all 4 corners covered.
The Ron Paul Blimp will be there. It did not receive clearance, so the blimp will have to move to 3 miles away at noon and can't return until 1 hour after the game.
Michigan will hold their primary Jan. 15 and Florida will hold their primary Jan. 29th.
The local Meetup group in Michigan has held a sign wave at every home game for Michigan this year. Just imagine their reaction after they travel 1100 miles south from a season's worth of Ron Paul sign waves, only to arrive in Florida for a massive Ron Paul sign wave... and a Ron Paul Blimp!! They will get the message that Ron Paul is EVERYWHERE.
Let's make them feel right at home!
Bring some bottled water!
The sign wave will start at 10 AM and run until 5 PM.
During the game we will take a break and shuttle back downtown to rest and eat and then head back to the Citrus Bowl for when everyone leaves the game.
Please do not feel you have to stay the entire time. You can come for just the pre game wave or the post game wave. You can stay for as long or as little time as you want.
We appreciate any support you can provide.
Tentatively, the Blimp will be over Lake Eola, in downtown Orlando, for some undetermined time during the game. Sorry for the vagueness but the plans have not firmed up yet.
I will deliver all the signs and slim jims to the corner captains before 10 AM, so you shouldn't need anything except your liberty loving self.
Parking - Parking is sold out around the Citrus Bowl and is by permit only. Shuttles are available from two nearby parking lots. One downtown (Amway Arena) and one at the Fairgrounds (West of the Citrus Bowl).
The shuttle is free but it is $5 to park.
Follow the signs! Follow the signs! Follow the signs! Follow the signs!

"Each of us should choose which course of action we must take; education, conventional political action, or even peaceful civil disobedience to bring about necessary changes, but let it not be said we did nothing."
