2 Florida Men Busted For Partying On A Crane In Naples

We all know about Florida Man, but in this case there were 2 Florida men busted for partying on a crane in Naples.

Florida Man knows no bounds. Whether it's trying to catch an alligator with his bare hands, using oddball items as weapons or jogging naked down the freeway. But in this case, there were 2 Florida men who decided it was a good idea to have a party where a party shouldn't have been held.

I think about all the places where I've gone to parties over the years. I think the most memorable was in a cow pasture back in high school. There was a whole DJ setup and everything.

I remember the police showed up and everyone freaked out. But we were pretty innocent high schoolers just dancing in the country, so I don't know what we were afraid of. The cows running after us ended up being more of a threat than the police.

Partying on land must not have been enough of a thrill for 18 year-old's Jack Hoaglund and William House. According to NBC2, these Florida men decided to not only sneak into a construction site, but to get on top of a crane. Officers with the Naples Police Department arrived to find yelling and loud music being played. They were able to traverse the construction site and remove the men from the crane.

Both Hoaglund and House were charged with misdemeanor trespassing for the party.

Not saying it was a good idea, but if anything, it'll make for a good story to bring back to school this week. I feel like this is such a "senior in high school" thing to do.

Choosing the college that's right for you is a big deal. Cost is always a factor, along with location, and of course, academics. But all of that is really secondary if you're looking for the best party school. And as a Florida resident, it's certainly cheaper to stay in-state.

Let me be a little too honest here. Very little of what I learned in college was actually useful when it comes to my current job. I think employers just want to see if you can finish something. Like getting that degree. You're also 'learning how to learn'. Which is important.

But what about the times when you're not in class, and you're not studying? College parties. Here's some more honesty. The parties that you go to in college? You'll likely never experience that again after you graduate. So really, you need a blend of academics, and best party school.

Niche is out with it's list of the 2024 Top Party Schools In America. And it's quite comprehensive. I'm not surprised to see a Florida school ranked so highly. What I am surprised by is that only one Florida school is ranked in the Top 20.

Coming in second place in the entire country for party schools in Florida State. Looking for a spot to hit up after class? Try Recess, Potbelly’s, The Strip, Clyde's, The Warehouse or Baja’s. Greek Life is also a source for parties. FSU has 18 fraternities and 17 sororities.

Add in all of that and that Florida State really just feels like an amazing college campus. Asthe second best party school in the U.S., going to see a game at Doak S. Campbell Stadium is just magical. There's just a vibe around the campus that's hard to explain.

Here's a quick rundown of the Top 10, then we'll see where other Florida Schools stack up.

Only 1 Florida school in the Top 10 seems a little strange to me. I live in Florida, I know how we are. The truly astounding part is that the next highest ranked Florida school doesn't even crack the Top 20.

It's not hard to imagine some of the party culture from FSU may be spilling over. The campuses are only 3 miles away and the students frequently share the same bars. FAMU has some solid party culture.

The Coral Gables school here in Florida actually ranks 2 spots behind the Miami University in Ohio. So many students go to Coconut Grove on Thursday that the school provides transportation to get them back and forth safely. If there's not a frat party to attend that weekend, they can head off to the beaches at South Beach or Key Biscayne. UM has a lot of party options.

With frat parties during the week, the weekends are for the clubs and bars. The bars at Midtown are within walking distance and the clubs downtown are only about a mile away. Like most colleges, Sundays are for laundry and catching up on the course work you've been putting off.

The University of Tampa is a smaller school, without the big tailgating parties or the national following. What is does have is that it's close to downtown and just a short trip to Ybor. Or just hang back at campus for a frat party or hit up the pool.

During football season, UCF hosts tailgates. Walk around, score free drinks and play games. A lot of the campus parties are invite only so your best bet is to join a lot of the clubs so you can get in.

FIU all the way down at 199. Still good for 7th best in Florida. FIU is more of a commuter school, but you're still in Miami so it's always easy to find a good time. There is the occasional party on campus.

7 schools in the Top 200. Not bad. Not many other states can say that.

Since this is a Fort Myers based website, I need to see when our very own FGCU ranks. 463 out of 1,512 on the list of top party schools in America. Not bad, considering the size of the school. One thing FGCU certainly does right is pool parties.
