I have been to one of the four LSU has played in. (2001, LSU 31, Tenn 20). I would have been to more if the friggin' thing rotated. Thanks again for proving my point.


You've gone one time ever. You don't travel well so it wouldn't matter regardless. A trip from Austin to Atlanta is cheap. Are you going for the city or your team? Why would they rotate the game to help someone from Texas?

True, but I like New Orleans music better.

Florida Citrus Bowl--- Orlando, Fl (70,000)- its a dump

LP Stadium--- Nashville, Tn (68,000)-wtf hell no

Cowboys Stadium--- Arlington, TX (105,000)- texas isnt in the south east sooo





I wouldnt mind it being in NOLA but since its always been in ATL and it is geographically in the middle, i say keep it like it is.

SECCG Superdome + French Quarter >>>>>>> SECCG in Atlanta

A Nashville SECCG would be badass too.

Jazzfest if definitely the best, normally. Voodoo Fest of 07' kinda trumped it though imo

The Fest in Gainesville every year is my favorite, by far. Always the best weekend of my year.

I've heard of that one, but never made it down there. Gainesville is a little far away from Birmingham though

The SEC does it right. The ACCCG is a failure, the Big 12 just lost their CG, and the PAC 10 is doing it at PAC 12 stadiums instead of the obvious most awesome choice in Vegas.

The SEC is doing it right imho.

I drove back to Auburn after Municipal Waste ended their set at 11:30ish eastern time on Sunday last year. Had a sculpture critique the next night so I had to wake up early and work all day, even though I was sore and bruised as shite from the Fest. Totally worth it.

Yeah, but Memphis doesn't have a large enough FB venue.

I was there, and while it was awesome, Jazz Fest just has so much history, color, and blended culture. It can't be beat IMO.
