SEC asks TV to drop ?Cocktail Party? slogan

The annual football game in Jacksonville between Florida and Georgia has been called the World?s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party by fans and the media since the 1950s. But an emphasis on responsible alcohol use has prompted the universities to ask television networks to stop using the moniker.

CBS Sports, ESPN and Jefferson Pilot were contacted by SEC commissioner Mike Slive, asking them to consider dropping the slogan during the Oct. 28 game.
