Florida linebacker Ryan Stamper is about to break a record he set a season ago.
The Jacksonville native has been stock-piling tickets to this Saturday's Florida-Georgia game since this season began, and he's now up to 19 or 20 total tickets for family and friends, breaking his unofficial record of 17.
"I know me, (Brandon) Hicks and (Tim) Tebow do (talk about the game). All three of us being from Jacksonville. They told me this is their favorite game, this is really my favorite game too," Stamper said. "Just coming home to the home team, and playing in front of the fans and trying to get as many tickets as you can. They say I had the Florida-Georgia ticket record last year, I'm about to break that record this year."
Each player is allotted four tickets to each game, and Stamper always starts trading for Florida-Georgia tickets early on. This year, he swapped his LSU tickets for senior wide receiver David Nelson's tickets to this weekend's game.
