This is a new "tradition" too fresh to be notable yet. Orange Mike | Talk 23:53, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to The World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. It has received third-party coverage but all of it local. Agree with Orangemike, too new for its own page at this point. J04n(talk page) 01:50, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Can't agree that it's too new. Florida-Georgia is one of the premier rivalries in college football. Trophies associated with college football's significant rivalries (most less signficant than Georgia-Florida) are acknowledged to be notable. See, e.g., Paul Bunyan Trophy, Paul Bunyan's Axe, Little Brown Jug (football), Old Oaken Bucket, Floyd of Rosedale, Florida Cup, Telephone Trophy, Iron Skillet, Slab of Bacon, Apple Cup, Peace Pipe, Platypus Trophy, Jeweled Shillelagh, Steel Tire, Land Grant Trophy, Old Brass Spittoon, Sweet Sioux Tomahawk and Fremont Cannon.

Keep. The World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party is an outdated reference that is historical. The current, accepted reference is the Okefenokee Oar, as confirmed by the two schools. Disagree with Orangemike and J04n to Merge. Cocktail Party is a separate reference. Agree with Cb162 that the rivalry is significant and the tradition is valid regardless of date estabished.
