Gainesville PD is awful.



Yep, even the Gator fans have acknowledged this as well.

Yeah, Carolina was the worst for me. You can tell the fans are a bit bitter for having been bad so long. It may have just been their past against Tennessee, so as a Mizzou fan you'd prolly be fine.

It's the only time I thought I might have to get in a physical altercation.

My best experience with opposing fans was at Georgia. I actually met some folks I continued to talk to after the trip.

Kentucky and Bama from my experiences. Bama has gotten much worse in the last few years, but they only suck after the game win or lose.

2012? That was the first and only time I've seen that happen in Tiger Stadium.

well, maybe your band sucks. LSU fans just pointing that out to them so they could practice more and quit embarrassing the SEC like so many of your fans.

Well in our defense, traveling Tennessee fans are shite bags in orange jerseys. I saw a fight between two Vols in WB in 2012 because guy A was disgusted by the amount of acne on guy B's face. Guy A was mad because all the Carolina fans were standing and he couldn't see the field so he decides to lay down on the bleacher and look up girls' dresses/skirts. In guy A's defense guy B did have a substantial amount of acne.

That wasn't my experience at all. We hung out pre-game with some really cool gator fans in 2010. They fed us and watched our ice chest during the game for us. We were a little curious about the mood we would see when we went back to get it. They were a little down, but they fed us again and then we went on our way.

I didn't mind LSU's place honestly. Enjoyed the shite talk with the people around me, generally had a good time.

Florida is easily the worst. it's like going to a Wal-Mart with no A/C at midnight to watch a rigged football game.

I was there and should've taken a dump in your ice chest after that fake fg.

It's really not LSU at all. As you can see, some of their fans like to think that it is, and it's those retards that will act like children, but most are very hospitable and fun. I've found this is true for pretty much every away game I've been to

I had one a-hole write me an open container and I was trying to make smalltalk..this guy was such a dick says he doesnt care about football and to shut the frick up.

Having said that, UF fans are pretty terrible, I have been twice and will not be returning.

UGA fans were more rowdy than I imagined they would be.

Bama fans are just smug, not necessarily rude. They love to flip the bird there, especially the women.

Like I said, never had the problem anywhere else. We keep to ourselves every game we attend. Carolina fans just kept provoking people, and not just us.

Nothing in the SEC compares to Lubbock, Texas. It's constantly windy (25+ MPH) with frequent dust storms, has a relatively poor social aspect for a town with a major university in it, the fans are TERRIBLE and it's so flat you can see the back of your own head. Add in the fact that the stadium is literally just a big high school venue (it hosts more high school games than college ones) and you get a trip that you couldn't pay me to go on again.
