quote:

Opposing players and fans who visit Death Valley are considered, as LSU supporters will kindly remind them via drunken shouts to the face, "Tiger bait!" That's the kind of southern hospitality that arises from LSU's signature night games, which allow for a full day of tailgate-based drinking. The administration had to apologize in 2005 after the Tiger faithful so ferociously pelted Tennessee's team bus with beer bottles that they cracked windows. For a story on how hostile LSU tailgaters were to opposing fans, female staffers from the university's student newspaper roamed their school's notorious daylong drinkathon disguised in Alabama gear. "We were groped and squeezed by just about every guy we interviewed," they reported. "The women called us 'bitches' and the men called us 'counts.' " Anything else? "The amount of times we were spit on also struck a nerve."

The Eagles have an active courtroom in the stadium on gamedays. I don't guess we've gotten to that level in the SEC, but it may be a good idea soon

I think shooting your son or your friend over a game is worse than anything they listed then. But the list is more about how they treat you at their games and not how they act the rest of the time.
