Literally from the article lol
“While I know of no evidence of racism associated with our “Gator Bait” cheer at UF sporting events, there is horrific historic racist imagery associated with the phrase.
That snopes article says it’s folklore
Youre the one who posted it. Neither of what you posted actually proves that it’s true. Also the stories they mention say it was done in India and Africa too. Using Jewish babies as bait.So that media you believe.
Do some research past the Snopes article. There’s no shortage of information on the topic. Black babies were used to lure alligators during slave times.
Does it rise to level of getting rid of a chant at our football games that’s less than 20 years old? Probably not.
Is this UF alum losing a wink of sleep over it? Nope.
We know that because of your 16K posts, you are a closet Vol fan. Come out!! You will be welcomed.
What do real Gator fans think?
