Going from the other thread and still bored I wanna hear about yalls worst experiences because misery loves company.

My choices (would so 3 but I have so many options!):

1) 2012 SEC Championship: No description really necessary. It was like getting groin kicked, punched in the gut, and watching your dog die all at the same time. I couldn't enjoy the journey there cause I was stressing too much and to make matters worse I was in the exact endzone and corner where Conley caught the ball. After the game I sat there by myself for 30 mins and couldn't get myself to leave. Melodramatic, you bet ya, but I have an admitted irrational passion for Georgia and I wanted nothing more than for Georgia to beat SEC royalty like Alabama to go on and beat NCAA royalty in a rematch of the 1980 title. Later to make matters worse my dad had told me for Christmas he had scraped some cash and called in some favors and was in the process of getting me 4 tickets for the title, getting a buddy to fly us down and had a hotel already.

2) 2013 @ Auburn: See, I didn't think I'd ever get so close to feeling like shite at a game as I did on Dec 1, 2012. Then Auburn happened. I made a bet with my AU friend who went in the game with me for shits and giggles (loser had to wear the other team's colors on social media for a month). Georgia came out playing like dog shite with little effort and I was pretty miffed. My friend and I decided to kill our floppy flasks and kept joking that Auburn whipping the defenses' arse was all part of the plan and we'd lull them to sleep. And then that turned out to be the truth. That comeback about killed me and finally it was 4th and 18 and I was so ready to tear up downtown Auburn and be a prick at Sky Bar. But then, if there was a god, he decided to give the Georgia fanbase collective the bird and boom. I couldn't believe it. I sat there and waited for a flag. fricking nothing. Left that game and proceeded to get trashed and while usually I never shut up I didn't talk for the rest of the night like a baby. Was fricking fuming.

3) 2012 @ South Carolina: This game would be higher if the other two weren't so god damn heart breaking. This game was just fricking terrible. I chipped a bone in my hand punching the William-Brice wall watching Georgia trot out there and just utterly shite the bed. One of the worst efforts I have ever seen Georgia exude. Just awful. And it only got worse because as many on here have said as well the South Carolina contingent were absolute scum. Tossing beer cans at Georgia fans, picking fights and acting like a bunch of pricks the experience was just awful after the game. Was so pissed I said frick the world and drove straight back to Athens until I got back around 3 am.

Added** 4) 2011 Boise State (GA Dome): I was angry in all of these losses but the most I ever wanted Mark Richt fired was this game. After UCF I thought he needed to be ousted and after an offseason of cooling down I finally was excited for Georgia football again with the promise of a new, spread look with a HUNH element. Then, instead, Georgia took an enormous wet shite on the field and got their candy asses handed to them by a fricking WAC team. Just an ugly game and I had about had enough of Georgia and the Richtator at that point.

5) 2008. Just 2008. Bama, WLCOP, Georgia Tech. I was so excited for this year and Georgia just shat all over my dreams. The Bama game was so exciting and had such a great atmosphere and Georgia not only lost but looked like pussies doing it. Physically Georgia showed it was no longer in the elite category and they embarrassed themselves in front of a national audience. Florida was just plain awful. I refused to leave the game cause, hell, I made the drive, and the game never got better. Georgia didn't even try (a common theme for the 2008 squad) and they let Tebow and company just bitch slap them for 4 quarters. Then there were the timeouts. frickin awful. After those two games I thought no way it'd get worse but then Richt and his boys let that big-titted frick CPJ come in and crush a 16 point half time lead. Only GT loss I have seen in person and that offseason was absolute hell. Just fricking pathetic.

2008 is what began my doubts in Richt and by the end of the year I lost all allegiance I had for him. Something I have yet to waiver from.

6) 2005 Auburn: This game sucked because the man who made me the Dawg I am, my grandpa, passed away that week and we had gone to the motorcoach club where the members had decorated his motorhome spot to memorialize him. The game itself was very good and a great environment but an already emotional night ended bitterly on yet another fluke ending in the favor of the tigers.

7) 2004 Tennessee: This game was the first time young DGD learned what it was truly like to be a Georgia Bulldog. Crushing disappointment. After the elation of victory vs LSU the week before Georgia came out as stagnant as I have ever seen them and blew their title shot vs a mediocre (IIRC) UT team.

Honorable Mentions: 2010 WLOCP, 2010 Arkansas, 2010 @ Auburn, 2010 @ South Carolina, 2003 SEC Championship Game, 2007 South Carolina, 2013 Vanderbilt

Yeah i was at the 2012 USC game. Was sitting in their student section because one of my friends was in a frat there and got me a student ticket for free. Worst experience of my life.

I have yet to talk to a Dawg fan who didn't have a terrible time. Not just the game but the entire scene was toxic. Their fans just acted like total pricks and Columbia itself is a fricking hole. 2013 @ AU at least most fans I dealt with were just gracious they won. They were actually pretty respectful. Bama fans in 2012, while arrogant, were just glad they held off Georgia. Those were just crushing losses. 2012 USCe was just straight up horrible in every facet. The buddy who went with me hates USCe more than about any team now (not a longtime dawg, doesn't know better) and on Spring Break that year a bunch of USCe kids were there and I had to break up a multitude of brawls because my friend wouldn't let go.

Luckily we have 2013 and those chicken shits didn't even go out in Athens in force.

Obviously sucked, but my childhood was the 90s so I became desensitized to florida butt whoopings.

True, I guess some of the older fans may have trouble with this one. But hey, Georgia did it's damnedest to give our generation a TON of bad experiences

I had been too I guess but that game was just so friggin bad. Georgia just gave up. I still can't get over the disgust from 2008. I think I hate the 2008 season more than 2010 but idk. Both teams were disgraceful.

THIS.

Distant 2nd. 1999 COFH. Jasper fumble.

3rd. 2012 USCe. In one fell swoop, their fans almost passed LSU and UF fans as worst in the conference.

Mine is by far and away the 2012 SECCG. We were on the losing end of the best game I've ever witnessed. I honestly can't put in to words how devastated I was. I honestly still haven't gotten over that one. It's going to haunt this program until we finally get a title.

The worst for me was the 1993 UF timeout game. Imagine, if you can, the old Gator Bowl right before they tore that piece of junk down. The heavens opened up and rain was running down the stadium like whitewater rapids. The first half/quarter is a monsoon, and everyone in the place is soaked to the bone. However, a Ray Goof team with Eric Zeier at the helm is fighting tooth and nail with the might Gaytors. Then as time is running out a Touchdown, My God a Touchdown! This horrible day was worth it, but no, a "timeout" was called before the play. To make matters worse, the Dawgs got to lose the game twice, as Zeier and company, lost the game on an incomplete pass that was called interference. They were given an un-timed play to finish the game that was also incomplete. Heartbreaking to watch that ending in that weather.

Honorable mentions:

2000 Termites v. UGA in Sanford Stadium. A cold rainy butt kicking by GT at home.

2008 UF v. UGA: I refused to go back to Jacksonville for several years after that one.

1999 UGA v. Termites at Bobby Dodd. Prior to renovating Bobby Dodd, UGA's fans were in a section that looked at the bleachers behind the end zone. You had to turn to your right to see anything. Jasper Sanks "fumbled" at the 1" line and Tech won in OT, on as second field goal attempted, after Georgia blocked the first attempt.

97 AU v. UGA- Cold as heck and the Dawgs played like Dawg shart!!!
