Auburn always hospitable?

I went to the game last night and I expected Auburn fans to give it as bad as LSU does to visiting teams fans. I was wondering if it was so calm because the fans have come to terms with the season or if it is always so chill. Also, the campus is absolutely incredible, very nice set up Auby has.

You would go into a game humble if you got your arse whipped last year and expected the same this season

I went in 2006 and had a really good time despite the loss. I came away from there with nothing bad to say. Auburn U is also a client of mine so I do get down there about 4 times a year. Nice town and nice people.

Every single time I have been there I have loved it. AU and LSU have been the best tailgate/gameday environments by far in my experiences. LSU fans are definitely more hostile but still a good time. AU is legitimately welcoming aside from the occasional "War Eagle" but that is to be expected.

The campus is immaculate too. Probably the nicest campus I have ever been to. Although the only other SEC campus I have been to is LSU so not much to compare to.

Opposing fans always compliment the AU faithful on their hospitality. Glad you had a good time.

I've been to 3 Iron Bowls there. I've always been treated kindly. A little smack talk once inside JHS, but it was all clearly in fun. People down there tend to be friendly.

Uhh, no.

Have had UGA fans throw bottles at a rental van, and LSU fans come and scream in a friends ear.

There are dick fans everywhere. To attempt to exclude yourself and others from the list just tells me you're a founding member.

Auby also did a great job with the women they presented. No suprise in that department, but it's always an enjoyable view when the Tigers face off.

Most fans were nothing but nice. I heard corndogs about 4532 times. Still think it's lame, but I guess there wasn't much else they could say before the game?

To the LSU fans who made the trip and saw our campus for the first time, I guess you can under
stand why we love it so much. It is truly a college town with great tradition. Hope everyone had a great time.

I still think Tiger Stadium is better, but the campus isn't even comparable. LSU's campus has looked like hell for some time now. There is more construction that functioning buildings. My friend said,"it's sad, even their buildings under construction look cleaner and neater than ours." It is a beautiful campus and a great atmosphere out there. Love that area you guys have with the big projection of the game and they serve food, very nice set up.

I walk the campus every day. I have never seen so many half done construction projects in my life. It has made the campus look a lot worse than it should.
