>FSU versus Miami

>I am stuck on Pensacola Street

>bumper to bumper past the sorority houses

>in my backseat I have four obnoxiously drunk FSU college girls

>I have the pleasure of their company for a half hour

>how I hate them

>when they are not comparing the hotness of each other’s male relatives

>they are yelling into a phone saying they aren’t going to Pike

>”fuck you Nicole we’re not going to fucking Pike!” says one

>”yeah we’re at the stadium you bitch not Pike” says another

>there is much shoving and scooting and grabbing of phones

>one sees four large dudes walk by wearing Miami gear

>she hangs out the window

>”Hey fuck Miami! Fuck you guys and fuck Miami!” 

>through gritted teeth, I say “Please do not draw unwanted attention to the car”

>this works not at all

>but I manage to get lucky twice

>the Miami guys continue walking despite the abuse

>and the girls see somebody they know on the other side of the street

>and just go tumbling out into traffic
