1. Bikini Car Wash.  Who wouldn't stop to support several bikini clad women and a bus painted with a Gator logo?  However, this idea has essentially been "poo-pooed" by the wife.  Enough beer could cause a change of heart though.  We'll see. There is a documented history of success with this plan.  Just read that link or look at the pics below. 
2. Bake Sale.  Only drawback here is that there aren't many legal ways to make a brownie worth $100 each.  Which brings me to my next idea...
3. Bikini Bake Sale.  Nuff said. 
4. Donations on game days.  We're planning to put up a bucket on game days for those who are partaking in the festivities, but again this won't get the job done on its own.
5. Corporate Sponsorship.  The good people at Tuffy's have agreed to a small price break in return for a logo on the rear of the bus.  Don't think we're afraid of whoring ourselves out for more logos.  The party will be much better if the bus can make it to campus as opposed to tailgating at the mechanic's shop.  That's worth a few logos and the feeling of selling yourself.
6. We could sell cookie dough or magazine subscriptions, however first graders seem to have a real strangle-hold on that market. 
7. Sell our souls?  I doubt even that would cover the expense.

I want to hear your ideas. Please use the comment feature to let me know how we can put together the money.  Any ideas, as long as they involve bikinis, are welcomed.  Also, thanks to all for the flowers and condolance cards.  It means alot the the bus and I.
