It may not be as famous as the Bull Gator next to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, but this Gator still shows its pride next to University Auditorium. The area around this statue is quiet and has benches, for those who may not want to study right next to the Gator, and is a great place to get some serious studying done, or even just relax and enjoy the sun. Surprisingly, the statue is really comfortable to lean against while studying and you can even use the bumps/spines on the Gator to prop up and hold your books as you're reading. It may get a little busier and louder as people walk between classes, but this is a relaxing and quiet spot the majority of the time.
Fun Fact:
Statue history: This Gator statue was given to the University as a gift from the Class of 1997.
