There's as many or more in the grove as can fit in the stadium, and I would say half of them line the walk when the players come through. So between 20-40k depending on the game. Close to 40 for the huge games.

So is this an example of LSU's walk

I would say that's an example of a drunk tiger fan learning how to use his camera.

The point is, you lead with the camel toes, follow with the band and then the team - since nineteen fricking THIRTY FOUR.

Auburn's?

LOL!

I'll gladly take this one...

I've never been to a HS stadium that seats that many people.



Yea, even in Texas the largest high school stadiums seat just over 20K. Five largest in Texas


Alamo Stadium 23K

I didnt see any band leading the team that whole 50 yds from the bus to the stadium.

Man, the rant has now resorted to team walk smack. Look, Ole Miss and Auburn's walks are both great. And neither one is much better than State's, but who gives a flying frick?

Looks like you'll just have to come down to Louisiana personally to learn how it's done.

Dude, nineteen THIRTY FOUR.

I think the Aggies will fit right in at Auburn. Both fan bases talk up their school like they were the first to do everything. I once had an Aggie lecturing me on the tradition of the Army Corps of Cadets! (In case you don't know, LSU's corps is older and has such notables as Willian T. Sherman as first Super, Claire Chennault, and John Lejeune amongst others as cadets) Then, the other day, they were talking up their Vet school like no one else had one. (LSU's is ranked #4 in the country, BTW).

"Oh, but TA&MU is a Land, sea AND SPACE grant University!"

They've got a lot to learn.

Just because something's old doesn't mean it's better.

Did I ever say Auburn was first in this thread. My point being you are showing pictures of a band parade, and Auburn has been doing those for a long time as well.

The video I saw of LSU's team walk looks like they just park the bus outside the stadium and walk in. Yes they have some fans around but doesnt look like that much.

If you have proof of anything else, show me

That doesn't change the fact that we have just as many people at ours.



FWIW jackasses, at the WOC in the Grove about 80% of people have to leave their tailgate and walk to where the walk is, it's not like everyone's spot is on the WOC. You Auburn folk are cewt.

Auburn. Oxford is easily the most overrated experience in college football, full of the most pretentious people.

I'm sure OM's Walk of Champions is a cute little production, but when it comes to comparing to Tiger Walk, that's like comparing stadiums. Apples and oranges.

Yes but they are still just walking from one spot in the grove to another, correct?

NGT, and those pics are just in front of the stadium. That doesnt include the 1/4 mile or so up the road from the stadium

Yes, and we'll still be near our coolers while auburn fans wallow in their sobriety by the football stadium.
