Tallahassee Bucket List
Since I’m going to be living here for 4+ years, I think it’s time to set some goals and create a list of everything I want to do in Tallahassee before I leave (if I leave. I’m kinda liking it here so far…)
While there is a Tallahassee bucket list for students to complete before they graduate and numerous ‘things to do in Tallahassee’ lists, there isn’t a comprehensive, all around must-do list anywhere that I can see. So I’m going to create one. Here’s my Tallahassee (city and regional) bucket list:
- See an FSU football game
- Tailgate
- See an FSU basketball game
- Spend some time on the Kissing Bench near Landis Green
- Watch a play at Little Theater
- Have a PB&J smoothie at EarthFare

Looks like there’s a ton of fun to be had in Tallahassee! I’ll have to venture out there one day.
You should! It’s a great town.
Lots of fun stuff…looks like you will be busy the next few years!
The Brogan is closed until further notice fwiw, due to lack of funding. It’s just for the camp kids.
Also you should add
1. Visit Maclay Gardens during the spring
2. Check out an FSU Baseball game
Wow! That’s quite a list you got there! Thankfully you have plenty of time to accomplish it!
