Mr. Two Bits, aka George Edmondson, was a fixture at Florida Gator games for decades, and he was an institution when I went to law school there in the 1970s. He would run around the stadium blowing a whistle and leading the "two bits" cheer. He retired after the 2008 season, but the school has continued the tradition with "honorary" Mr. Two Bits since then. He never attended the University of Florida either, but was named an honorary alumnus.

Just part of what makes college football such a great sport. Age 97.
