Gatorade is the raging tech-transfer success story of the University of Florida. It was developed by a bunch of second rate Gator "scientists" hanging out in the football stadium locker rooms checking out the football player's sweat in the sultry Florida heat.
Yes, a bunch of geeks rubbing down the jocks, all for science.
