Confessions of a Gator Cheerleader

Confession #1: A Gator cheerleader never tells all...or does she?

Author and former Gator cheerleader Bess Harbin Auer exposes life at Florida under Steve Spurrier's first year as head coach. Although the Gator Nation becomes locked in the chaotic grip of brutal serial killer Danny Rolling, the cheerleaders strive to create an atmosphere of team spirit deep in The Swamp.

Go behind the scenes as the cheerleaders prepare for Gator Growl, work out in the sacred South End Zone weight room, and practice in the O'Dome. Follow the squad to Tennessee and see how they find a way to take the ultimate revenge on the football field at Neyland Stadium. And don't forget the eight-foot snake on the loose in Yon Hall!
