‘You Are So Pensacola’ Quiz Round Three – The Two Freds

Posted on September 4, 2024

I have searched our archives and cannot find the first “You are so Pensacola if…”

However, I did run across the 2004 April Fool’s issue that had Sheriff Ron McNesby adding a submarine to his crime-fighting arsenal. The story became a hot topic during the 2004 election cycle.

ROUND THREE

Fred Levin and Fred Vigodsky were college roommates at the University of Florida and best friends. They were also business partners. Name four businesses the two men owned together.

Submit answers in the comments.

  • ROUND FOUR goes live at 3 p.m. on Thursday.

    I only know two: Chick’s Barbecue, which was way before my time, but I remember hearing a TV interview Fred Levin did years ago where he talked about it, and, of course, BLAB-TV.
