Poor, abused UGA fans...I was in Athens in 2011. Your fanbase lost all moral high ground after that.
Because you are shining city upon a hill, full of honor and virtue.

Lol, yeah a heartbreaking loss will do that. My brother still won't talk to me about that game.

Well that certainly wasn't enjoyable, but it was more the groups of Jersey- like students calling my buddy's GF and sister "counts" and trying to start fights that changed my perception.

What does Nick Fairley have to do with your fanbase acting like a bunch of shitheads? Try and keep up.

I love the history of this game.

The sprinklers were meant for the field. Someone on the field turn them on the stands. It was freezing. SEC required a plan to keep folks off the field. Bad idea, but meant for Auburn fans but we lost the game.

Little did y'all know Uga was a drug sniffing K9.

2011 was pretty bad, but I think a lot of that was pent up Cam/Nick rage along with the anger a lot of UGA people felt seeing Auburn win the championship the year before. It really is like a sibling rivalry.

When was the other dog bite game? Jerraud Powers, maybe?

Don't be a douche, if that's possible. Nobody else in this thread is really acting like you are.

I highly doubt any Auburn fans will ever be appointed to Heavens welcoming committee.

Auburn fans are really nice and hospitable for the most part. UGA fans too. I think UGA fans are a little bolder in going on the shite talking offensive, but most are pretty pleasant.

Not trying to be a douche, sorry. Just seems like you having problems with UGA fans starting in 2006 probably isn't a coincidence

I don't think it's a coincidence either, but that has more to do with yall going wild in the stadium and it overflowing into the evening than us doing anything. I was too humiliated to talk shite, trust me

At least they didn't get beaten with miniature bats......
One of the most beloved scoreboards from Sanford Stadium featured a bulldog holding a 2×4 with a nail sticking out of the end. Georgia has always been known for defending the hedges and for opposing teams defacing them for “souvenirs,” but there’s a story behind that bulldog with the nailed board.
The year was 1935. Huey Long, who ran Louisiana, wanted LSU to play at Georgia.
“He called Harold Hirsch, who was big in the Coke company (as an attorney),” recalled Bill Hartman, a Georgia player then and an assistant coach now. “Harold told him that they couldn’t play that year because schedules were made up too far in advance. Huey told him Louisiana was thinking about putting an additional tax on Coke. Harold told him whenever you want to play, we’ll do it.”
The teams met Nov. 16. LSU brought nearly the entire student body – mostly military cadets – and won 13-0.
“The cadets wanted to come down on the field and tear down the goalposts,” said Hartman. “They didn’t know there was a fence in the hedges. They started to go through the hedges and got hung up at the fence. It had been some kind of souvenir day, and the Georgia fans had been given 18-inch bats. When the cadets got hung up, the Georgia students descended on them and started beating them with the bats.”

Sure, but that's no different than my Auburn friends talking obscene amounts of shite after the game last year. I don't hold it against them. It's just part of it
