I have been to tiger stadium a couple of times. It's cool even though a couple of drunks starting talking shite. They picked the wrong person to talked shite to. I can talk shite with the best of them.

The only bad road game experiences I've had were in Austin, Norman, and Lubbock.

Manhattan and Stillwater were decent. Lawrence and Waco are meh. Lincoln was great.

Although experiencing Lambeau will be cool, I would love to experience Camp Randall.

In the order of the ones I have been to:

1. LSU - All day fun and loudest crowd at night (was told 3rd loudest crowd in Tiger stadium history)
2. Alabama - Was close to LSU as started early and had a great day. Im sure the game crowd would have even been louder had they been winning.
3. Georgia - Fun day and friendly tailgating. fans not nearly as loud as Florida.
4. Florida - It was a great crowd in the stadium. The tailgating was not as enjoyable as the three above.
5. Arkansas - I had a great time but it was raining and was a day game, so not really fair.
6. Miss. State - most the crowd was not there until mid afternoon. Crowd was half empty by 4th quarter.
7. Vanderbilt - Not much to say.

I've been to all excepct aTm (don't think we've ever played there..hurry up 2024!) and Gainesville (we're in jax every year).

LSU
UT/Bama/Auburn
SC
Arkansas
OM
Kentucky
Mizz
MSU
Vandy

Notes:
-LSU is phenomenal but if they suck or if it's an early game you don't get the full experience. All things considered I put this one high though
-UT/Bama/AU are all basically teh same. Good stadiums, rabid fans, good campus. I've heard both be extremely loud and both be not very loud at all. If I were FORCED to give one the edge it might be UT simply based on the location by the river, but that's offset I think by the stadium not being as nice as the other 2.
-SC is good and has gotten much better since my first trip there. Surrounding area is lackluster and off campus is negative points. Also negative points for techno. But it is a good, solid SEC atmosphere that can get insane with firing on all cylinders
-Arkansas's stadium setting surprised me and I was impressed wiht the satdium itself as well.
-Kentucky has a really decent sized stadium compared to their program.
-Missouri didn't quite "feel" SEC. It's also a bit small and the fans aren't the best in the way of noise
-Renovations will probably help OM but both times I've been it's been a little meh. The grove is cool but supremely overrated. Small stadium as well doesn't help keep noise in much.
-Been to MSU twice but not since renovations. I hear it's much nicer now, but I haven't personally seen so can't speculate on that.
-Vandy is what it is.

If I were including Jax in teh mix I'd put it at 1. When you say "atmosphere", for jax that's Thursday-Saturday and it just doesn't get better than the WLOCP taking it all into account.

I've never been treated poorly on a road trip. Had a few"Mizzou sucks" or whatever hurled at me, but the vast majority of the time it's been good natured. I expect LSU fans to be about the same.


No, LSU won't be about the same. You will be taunted way more. However, they don't mean it in a nasty way. And like the other poster wrote, if you laugh about it they will treat you more hospitably than you will be treated anywhere else. They will ladle food and booze on you!

That' I've been to in person:

Auburn

Eagerly anticipating visits to Gainesville (this year), and Oxford. Athens, Knoxville, and Columbia too.
