Gay Goaters! Florida Man Olympic Games

[Shootist Comitatus]

The second annual Florida Man Games will take place on March 1, 2025, at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds.
Even if you aren't on a team, there will be chances for audience members to compete in challenges outside of the main event.

Tickets are still available for purchase, with general admission priced at $45 and VIP tickets at $145.

Florida’s irreverent, insane, headline-making and swampy version of the Olympics is coming back for its second year.

The Florida Man Games are less than a month away, and the funny and mostly inappropriately named list of teams was released by the organizers of the games this week.

The roster includes the returning champions of the inaugural 2024 games and the games’ first all-female team.

“Just when the world thought Floridians couldn’t Florida any wilder, they did. The Florida Man Games returns on March 1st, 2025, and how it got insured for round 2, no one will ever know,” the 2024 press release said.

“This irreverent competition, where the state’s most unruly residents serve as demigods of athletic prowess, is getting even weirder with new competitions, more insane teams, and a brand-new venue.”

At the 2024 Florida Man Games, teams of Florida men went head-to-head in challenges like weaponized pool noodle mud dueling, an “evading arrest” obstacle course, a category 5 hurricane winds cash grab, beer belly Florida sumo wrestling and more.

There was also a “Florida Ma’am” pinup competition and other activities for attendees, like chicken bingo and a mullet competition.

The evading arrest obstacle course will return at the 2025 games, along with new challenges like “the Florida sumo cage match,” and enough space for tailgating. The event will be moving its location and date to the St. Johns County Fairgrounds, on Saturday, March 1, 2025.

“We’re expecting an even bigger crowd at (this) year’s event, so it made sense to move out to the St. Johns County Fairgrounds, where we’ll have more space, a covered arena, and this year, we’re excited to introduce an RV tailgating area,” Pete Melfi, organizer and founder of the Florida Man Games, said in the press release.
