I think A&M fans are forgetting that LSU fans dance circles around them in tailgating, partying, and overall gameday atmosphere.



And piss balloons. Beat us in that too.

Maybe, but we will always be beat LSU in the pet cemetary competition.

Can he at least see a scoreboard or a TV in that box to follow the games?

As a rule, the Mike's have all been notoriously temperamental. More than half the time LSU vets can't get him to go into his mobile cage...



...and if a tiger doesn't want to go in, there's no forcing him. So I don't think the Mike's were ever into the games.

Geez.
I don't blame him.
That thing is the size of a postage stamp.

This Mike is also our largest mascot ever.

Estimates by LSU Veterinary staff are that Mike VI may top out at 600 lb (270 kg) or more, making him LSU's largest tiger mascot ever

Either that, or get an animatronic Mike for gamedays...

UGA's stadium is acknowledged as not loud, but is considered beautiful? It's pretty atheistically ugly, really. UGA should be ranked high for gameday experience and it's a decent enough and pretty large stadium, but I just don't get this.


As an unbiased observer, I totally disagree. Georgia's stadium--the manner in which it is built into the valley with the bridge overlooking it--is great. I don't know how anyone could say it's not aesthetically pleasing.

No you won't. I'm no LSU fan but I'll tell you regardless you won't be #1. LSU deserves that title even after your expansion. Yall will have an amazing stadium which I will admit to being jealous of LSU will triumph because of game day experience. Lets face it Cajun's are just that much more crazy than Texans. Besides its only a matter of time before someone else takes your design and out does it. Tis is life in the SEC. Oh and before yall start the whole we got more money and yada ya we all rich bitch!! Lol

I've been to Sanford many times, nothing really special about it at all except some stupid bushes. Holds a good bit like the other big SEC stadiums but I wouldn't rank it in front of LSU/UF/UT/Bama/AU/A&M.

Not having the newly expanded and upgraded BDS in the top 3-4 is a joke. My wife's side of the family are UGA Dawgs, and I've been to several games there in recent years and that stadium screams "1995". The campus is nice, but it's ugly inside with the strange third deck on part of the stadium, not fully inclosed because of the "bridge", weak concessions, bathrooms, etc and lacks TV's in concourses, etc. It's just a mid-tier SEC stadium at this point, period. I'd rank them like this:

1) LSU
2) Alabama

3)Auburn
4)UGA
5) UF
6)TAMU

7)UT
8) Arkansas
9) Ole Miss
10) USC

11)MSU
12)UK
13)Mizzou
14)Vandy

OK sure. But when was it decided unchained drunken passion is a "better" game day experience than A&M's religious ceremony? Some people like church.

Athlon and 'Expert' isn't that an oxymoron?
