It's funny how one tweet can make news. That's the story of Florida revealing its new costume for Albert E. Gator, one of the anthropomorphic alligators who serve as the mascots for Florida Gators teams of all kinds, via this Friday afternoon video of Albert being lifted and carried by Florida cheerleaders.
An eagle-eyed fan spotted the difference — Albert's eyes look different, and the block F his shirt used to sport has been replaced by the italicized, stylized F Florida is now using across its branding. Adam Silverstein of Only Gators was able to get confirmation: Yes, that's a new uniform, and yes, Alberta, Albert's female counterpart, has one, too.
