To all of you UGA students going road tripping with your friends down to St. Simons Island for the Georgia/Florida game this weekend, here is a collective list of all that you must not forget to bring. With activities like soaking up the sun, watching Georgia football, eating microwavable meals, and sleeping on the floor with three people squished next to you, this weekend is bound to be one of the best college memories you will ever make.
As a GA/FL veteran, I have decided to help all you first-time GA/FL-goers out by giving you a clear and concise packing list so you don't have to miss out on any fun whatsoever.
1. A pillow & a blanket, or maybe even a sleeping bag.
That hard floor sure is hard... and cold. Bring your comfiest jammies and the softest of bedding for that pallet you'll be sleeping on.
2. Your trendiest Halloween costume
It's Frat Beach we're talking about here, people! This is your time to shine with the weirdest costume you've always been too self-conscious to wear. Luckily for you, Frat Beach is literally one huge beach party right before Halloween... Get crazy.
3. Sunscreen
Don't let those clouds deceive you - the sun is still out there somewhere, beaming harmful rays on your skin, and you could still end up burnt and hating life if that AC doesn't work in the B&B where you're staying.
4. Snacks
Bring a small bag or fanny pack to bring some sweet treats and granola bars. You'll be stuck on the beach (Frat Beach nonetheless!) and I can guarantee, none of your friends will want to leave the beach to go scavenge with you. Nutrigrain bars will do wonders!
5. Water!!!!!!!!!
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! You will thank me later if you fill that giant Bubba Keg up with ice water.
