Gainesville = Horrible Costumer Service

So this weekend I went to Gainesville with the USF Equestrian team. A rule in the team is that we have to attend an intercollegiate (college level) horse show to see what it is like. So up to Gainesville we went to watch a western show. We got their Friday night and decided to go to Hooters for dinner. The service was horrible. Three other ladies ordered an Oyster Roast and it took 45 minutes for them to bring it out. Everyone was already done with their meal, so we had to wait while they finished their oysters. Oh, to make it better they didn’t shuck them for you; you had to shuck them yourself. There was a bunch of girls, how the hell are we supposed to know how to shuck oysters. So after being there for 2 hours we left, went back to the hotel, and got ready for a night on the town. The next day we went to the horseshow and watched the ins and outs of a typical show. Many girls left after lunch that day leaving only six of us. Dinnertime rolled around and we ended up at this pizza place called the Mellow Mushroom. Again service was bad. It took them over an hour to bring out 2 pizzas. Really? That’s ridiculous. This morning as we checked out of the hotel we stopped by an IHOP on the same road for breakfast. Guess what? The service was bad there too. By the end of the weekend we came to the conclusion that Gainesville, while beautiful, has horrible costumer service.
