I saw GreenMan get thrown out of the Ole Miss game this year, then he kept yelling at the cops and he got arrested...fricking awesome...I just stood there and watched like this



The frick did they throw him out for?

Took me until the 2nd quarter of the Iron Bowl to find him. Then he got on someone's shoulders. Then again, I was packed in the greek section and could barely move.

that was an awesome night.


The hour+ before kickoff against FLA this year was absolutely nuts though. That was just special. The teams meeting at midfield, and then rushing the student section. I've been to 3 years of football in the student section now, but that night it really felt like we were gonna be able to have a real impact on the game.

Then gary and Les decided to play not to get blown out. It was cowardly and I was embarrassed.


That was the coolest thing I've seen in a stadium, and then it quickly turned into absolute frustration as everyone there realized what was being done to our players.

Bama's A-Day game 2007. My son had just reached the point where he was getting interested in the team and knew what was happening on the field. Our first game together was the Duke game in 06.

I wouldn't have blamed him if he picked another team to root for after that but we showed up the next year for A-Day and it was incredible. Saw LSU later that year, IB in 08, and UT in 09. We're off to a pretty good start.

This will seem odd coming from a LSU fan, but one of the coolest endings I ever saw at a game was in 1979. My Dad was a Arky grad and we went to every Little Rock game. Arky beat Texas who was ranked #1 or #2, Texas fans on average are a bunch of arrogant pricks. After the clock ran out, to my memory, no Arky fans left, they stood up and was doing the hook um horns sign upside down. Pretty cool to a kid.

Yeah I'm sure it has been said more than once, but of all my games in TS, last years fla game felt... Different. I just kept saying it felt mystic. When the gators stomped the eye at midfield and the crowd started booing, the tigers saw em and ran out. I thought they were going to fight. The crowd went insane. 13-3.

ETA: and the saints/patriots game. Sitting on the first row on the 50, flirting with Jonathon goodwin's fiancé and friend while my saints made Tom Brady take the bench. Knowing we got in their heads was awesome.

the meeting at midfield was pretty fricking badass before the uf game but once the game started it went all down hill.

2001 vs auburn the stomping of the eye, the onside kick, clayton putting the auburn returner in a coma and then with about 5 mins left after locking up the win the cloud of smoke rising out of the endzones as cigars were being lit in response to 1999.

2000 bama game- the 4th quarter mooners. 2 students ran all the way from the student section to passed midfield and mooned the bama fans

2008 Auburn game in Tuscaloosa. Siran Stacy carried out the game ball with his surviving daughter. For about 5 minutes he and his daughter jumped and waived at the crowd and the whole side of the stadium was cheering them. For those that don't know the story he was in a vehicle accident that took the lives of his wife and three daughters.

This sticks out in my mind.Pretty immature.I'd just recently Graduated and was at a Game with three other Buddies.In 83',can't remember the opponent,but there was a Girl about 30 sitting right down from us wearing a Blouse that needed another button and definately a Bra.Every time she moved her whole Left Tit was totally visible.We were real Drunk and started chanting "Party Hat" everytime her Nipple popped out.Her Date was Pissed but there were 4 of us 22yr old Drunks.They left about the middle of the 3rd quarter.Good Times.

Alex Brown's 5 sacks against Tennessee in 1999. Awesome. Just unbelievable how unstoppable he was that day.

Probably the coolest thing though was the South Carolina game at the swamp in 2000.

Florida had been losing 21-3.

A couple of crazy things happened. Florida stormed back and was only down 21-17 before the half, when a deflected pass was caught by OG Thomas Moody who rumbled in for the go ahead score.

but the craziness wasn't over.

South Carolina was forced to punt with 7 seconds left on the clock to Lito Sheppard. The stadium was electric now after the comeback, and everyone started chanting LITO LITO LITO.

Lito then had a weaving, crazy 57 yard punt return TD where he had to leap into the endzone at the end. The stadium went crazy. I mean bat shite crazy. By the time we were done celebrating, I was 4 rows down and 5 seats over from where I had started before the play had ended.

NUTS

Coolest or best game action I have seen would be Rudi Johnson's OT run in 2000 to beat UGA. JHS was going nuts after that. The 1997 IB was pretty cool too, with the entire place chanting "SEC" in the final few minutes.

For the coolest thing not actually sports related, but at a game, had to have been Tiger's first couple of free flights in pregame. I remember the one prior to the Wyoming game was pretty wimpy, but then when they finally got her flying from higher up and making sustained flights...was just amazing.

I have two...they are about the same in ranking of cool things.

1) This past season at the Auburn/Ole Miss game, when Zac Etheridge was injured. It was amazing how Grandy (Ole Miss) was lying motionless in order not to move Etheridge.

2) Sitting in The Swamp and watched Tebow get stopped on 4th and 1. The stadium was silent. Florida fans were in shock.

that brings to mind another UA vs tu game in Little Rock. This was in 1991, the last time we played EOE-A as members of the SWC. We jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead on them. We were horrible and they were ranked top-15. They got a TD to close it to 7. Then their kicker missed a chip shot fg and the extra point on a late TD that would have tied us. We end up winning 14-13 as their kicker foreshadows Leigh Tiffin.

After the game, nobody would leave the stadium. We just stood there, half the people in tears, cheering and calling the Hogs. Finally, the team came back out of the locker room, pads off, quarterback (Jason Allen) riding on an OL's shoulders. They came around and high-fived the fans and sang the fight song. Unforgettable.

Beating the crap out of Georgia Tech, 51-7. GT just quit after halftime. Fantastic arse beating. It was one of the most euphoric feelings I've ever had, naturally.
