Here’s Gregor’s final update from the orange state. He mostly discusses (American) football and the rampant homosexuality the sport is known for.
And the Winners!
Over 200 FSU students entered the drawing for 5 free Kafkacotton shirts. We also had a few people retweet a specific tweet from @Kafkacotton which also counted as an entry. The winners are:
Lasonya Rodgers
David Grimes
Alanna Viau-Gourdin
Ashley Bittle
Floridel Jimenez
Congrats! If you didn’t win this time, follow Kafkacotton for more giveaways and discounts (and Gregors).
The folks from CBS WCTV and the FSView & Florida Flambeau came out to say hi to Gregor on Wednesday. Who else is proud of our faithful cockroach?

The article is also online here and there’s a cool photo gallery here.
It’s great to see people are taking notice of Gregor’s mission to visit 48 states in 48 weeks. Nudging people to think about illiteracy and support socially responsible products like Kafkacotton is important work.
As always, you can follow Gregor around the country by hopping on our newsletter, becoming a Facebook fan, following us on Twitter, or grabbing our RSS feed.
Next stop, the University of Southern Mississippi this Monday!
Gregor’s in the Florida capital at Florida State University. It’s a great city – not too big and still has a distinct, historic feel. And it’s warm – can’t understate that.
Check out the first video from Tallahassee where Gregor talks about J.D. Salinger’s death plus a bit about trippy pizza, Kafka on the moon, dodging cars, and Gregor being (repeatedly) shot down.
He’ll be traveling around the whole US in 2010 – look for him in your city! He’s out to raise illiteracy awareness and put great books on the peoples’ chests. First up:
Feb 1-3 | Florida State University | Tallahassee, FL
Feb 8-10 | University of Southern Mississippi | Hattiesburg, MS
Feb 15-17 | Louisiana State University | Baton Rouge, LA
He may look funny but, well – yah – he just looks funny.
