For newly elected Florida state Rep. Dan Raulerson, a bet is a bet.
The former mayor and city commissioner — a diehard Florida State University fan — appeared at Monday’s commission meeting sporting a Gator blue-and-orange tie.
He and City Attorney Kenneth Buchman had made a friendly wager on last weekend’s Florida-Florida State game. After the Gators trounced the Seminoles 37-26, Raulerson made good on his bet — much to the delight of Buchman and Gator fans in City Hall this week.
“I am a broken individual,” Raulerson said, obviously uncomfortable sporting his rival’s colors.
