Gatorade was developed in the 1960's by researchers at the University of Florida. Researchers were working on a beverage that could replace fluids that athletes lose while playing. They named it Gatorade after the University of Florida's football team the "Gators".
The Gatorade name comes from The University of Florida football team, the "Gators". Gatorade was invented at The University of Florida to assist their athletes in combating the dehydration that limited their performance-hence "Gator…ade."
In 1965, a team of researchers at the University of Florida developed a drink that would replace fluids and salt that was lost during times of exertion. The drink was tested on members of the University of Florida football team and was named Gatorade to honor the University. The nickname of the University of Florida is 'the Gators'.
