Trick-or treating with the Avenue

We’re not in denial: We know we’re a little past our trick-or-treating prime. We know we can no longer strap on a pair of rabbit ears and faux-furball tail without being called a few choice words. We know we’re not getting any candy this year unless we march our non-bunny-costumed selves over to Walgreens (most likely on Nov. 1, when all that cavity-causing goodness goes on sale).

Kings of Comedy: Gator Growl stands up for humor

What do O.A.R, the Steve Miller Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd have in common? If you said that none of them have been relevant for more than a decade, you're only partially right. They were also the last three headliners for Gator Growl. You'd think that the world's largest pep rally would have a little more to offer than bands so dull even your dad would be embarrassed to be caught listening to them.

Boys who like girls — and boys: Happy Bi Day

From left to right: a woman, a man and another man, all holding hands. I thought it was a pretty interesting sight too, not necessarily because I was confused, but because I had never seen it before. I thought I never would either. Rather than walk up and ask for an interview, I decided to follow them. They reached the entrance to Library West and then all parted ways, so I sat down to think. Was that a genuine three- way relationship?

Meet the seat stealer: the leader of lecture hall losers

Here’s a frightful scenario: You overslept, missed the bus, and the line at Starbucks is longer than the line at a Justin Bieber concert. By some divine miracle, you make it to class with one minute to spare. The problem? Some dude is in your seat. You have just met that most despicable of classroom creatures: the seat stealer.
