I've been to the following: Not counting bowls/SECCG/neutral site

SEC
LSU
Kentucky
Florida x2
Auburn
Alabama
Ole Miss
Tennessee
Georgia

Pac 12
Washington vs LSU
Arizona State vs LSU
Cal vs USC
Stanford vs USC

Big 10
Ohio State vs Cal

Best trip ever was versus Arizona State. Funnest coeds EVER.

Honestly...wish we did more home and homes. These neutral games are great for tv I guess, but home and homes and seeing everyone's traditions is what college football is all about.

Arkansas should tailgate on Old Mains Front Lawn. There's TON of potential there. It's close to most of all the Greek housing, shaded, and mostly flat. IMO, it would definitely add to Arkansas's game day atmosphere.

Tailgating shouldn't be done in an asphalt parking lot...

I really haven't been to many:
Bryant-Denny, Jordan-Hare, and Death Valley of course.
This fall we are planning on going to either Oxford or Starkville, possibly BD or Athens.

To me nothing will ever surpass Sept 1979 LSU-USC,
Nov 1982 LSU-FSU, Sept 2003 LSU-UGA, Oct 2007 LSU-FLA, and the craziest, rowdiest, loudest, most insane of all - Nov 3, 2012 (ironically a loss)

Hd we managed to hold on against the Tide on that night, they'd be rebuilding Death Valley as we speak.

I am also trying to make it to every SEC stadium, so far I have only been to Jordan-Hare, Neyland, and Death Valley. I plan to go to Sanford next year. I really really want to go to Bryant-Denny but after going to the 2012 BCSNCG and after having one of your own get testicles on his face, I see it 2 ways: 1)LSU loses and Bama fans are douches 2)LSU wins and Bama fans are douches... Hopefully I get to make the trip this year and I will have a good time, but I'm sure the Bama fans can understand my apprehension. I think my viewpoint is shared by majority of tiger fans who have never been to BDS.

Game was ridiculous. Game wouldn't have been half what it was if USC didn't lose

Was in Columbia this weekend for a wedding. I had to go see Williams Brice, I was prepared for the worst, but I was pleasantly suprised. Great Stadium, well kept grounds, and a beautiful campus for the most part.



The only thing that sucks about our stadium is that it's so far off campus. The area around Willy B has really improved. There is nothing wrong with our stadium itself as I would rank it in the upper echelon of the SEC. Only places I haven't been to are Florida, Arkansas, A&M, and Mizzou. Of the trips I have made, had best times at Ole Miss.

AU @ UGA 2007. . . it was pretty nuts. I'd still give AU the advantage in crowd noise, though. It's probably because one of their end zones is open and lets the noise escape a bit.

While it would be kinda cool to tailgate at Old Main lawn it would be too hard to get a lot of people and tents and stuff set up there. Also most alumni don't want people trashing or tailgating on top of the oldest sections of the Senior Walk.

I woke up and walked to a friends house close to campus. I got to the house right during OT and watched Wing's field goal. Fun night

Not counting the WLOCP, SEC title games, and bowls, I've only seen UF play on the road @ Kyle and Neyland (6x). A big night game in Death Valley is certainly on my bucket list.

Is that the blackout game? When UGA players were doing superman on the sidelines?

It looked fun as hell on TV.

Anybody have any tips on bad fan bases? I'd likely bring my girl to alot of these games and we don't mind teasing or heckling but I don't wanna bring her somewhere where we'll have stuff thrown at us or anything like that. Ill just bring a guy friend to games like those.


The shear irony that a LSU fan would post this is beyond comical.
