💚🐊 Now THAT’S how Gators do Homecoming! 💙

The Gator spirit was alive and well at this year’s Homecoming Tail-Gator! From catching up with old friends and making new memories to enjoying some friendly competition at the Chili Cook-Off, our alumni showed up ready to celebrate!

We loved seeing so many familiar faces, big smiles, and Gators having a blast together! And judging by these pictures, it's safe to say our alumni know how to have a good time! 📸🎉 taken in University of Houston-Downtown by @uhdofficial
