I don't think you will find many fans of other SEC teams who don't get tired of hearing it over and over.

LSU was the worst road trip I have ever experienced. I got cussed out by some coon arse sitting behind me the entire game when I was with my girlfriend. Not to mention the pregame shite talking. It was miserable. A bunch of damn jorts and football jerseys. I was expecting more class, but it turns out half the people in the stadium don't seem to have their GED much less attend/ed LSU.

Didn't realize we were talking about the social composition of the crowd. That changes things. Let's start with Cowbell U.

I've been to every stadium in the SEC, and all but LSU and DWR at least twice. I'd have to say this as far as stadium experience:



Nicest fans stadium: JHS/Davis Wade

Loudest stadium: LSU/BDS/WBS

Best in-stadium food: Vaught-Hemmingway/WBS *WBS only for BBQ

Cleanest stadium: Sanford/DWR

Most welcoming stadium: JHS

Worst Upper Deck: Sanford

Best Lower Deck: DWR

Nicest Jumbotron: Davis Wade (duhhhh)

Best in-stadium gameday experience: Commonwealth

Worst in-stadium gameday experience: Neyland/Vandy

Loudest team entrance: WBS

Quietest team entrance: Vandy

My favorite stadium overall: BDS

I didn't realize LSU and Florida had a large Jewish contingent.

I like Miss. State, i've been there twice for LSU games and a couple of others when i was living in MS; very down to earth fans (i guess you have to be with their history). Ole Miss i didn't find it all it was cracked up to be, stadium is crap. Alabama 2005 was the loudest stadium i've been to other than TS late in the game. But aside from a few important moments in the game their fans seem pretty tame. The other time i was there was in 1997 when we kicked their arse like 27-0 and they had a shite team so their fans were pretty quiet.

I'm glad alot of you all had good experiences in Knoxville. We have our a-hole idiots, but who doesn't?

With the new renovations, if you haven't seen them in person, you'll be very impressed. Especially if you remember what it used to look like.

I almost always set up a tailgate at Circle park one block from the stadium. Usually hang out with other fans too. We have a great time.

8. Arkansas- Maybe you guys could hire a Chemist who knows the formula for ice. No cups or ice in their POS stadium.


Maybe if your fans would stop piss bombing and your coach would stop eating the grass we would invite you up to the nice stadium. As a side effect, this time of year you often done need ice in your cup to get it cold...

Usually if you go to a stadium multiple times you get a good sample of the fans. I've been to Miss St probably 10 times because I live so close and have had very good friends and former teammates on the team. I've yet to go to a game there where someone didn't do something really shitty. That tossing shite from the top to the fans below has to stop.


If i'm going to self criticize, i'll say BDS's student section is assholish on occasion but is sadly also the only section that is loud more than when the game is on the line/big time rivalry.

4. LSU: I went in expecting the absolute worst. I'd heard the horror stories and everything else. From the time I stepped out of the car and walked toward the stadium I had probaby 20 fans go through the same bit. bust my balls, i respond, they laugh, ask me to drink and eat with them. After the game(this was 08) they were nothing but congratulatory. Didn't have one single problem out of one single fan.


This is what I love about LSU. First, we bust your balls to see how you respond. Then, we invite you join us, eat our food and hit the keg or help yourself to some Jack. It's exactly how tailgating should be.

Good for you for getting the full experience and not being afraid to have us bust your balls a little as the "price of admission" to the party.

making an opposing band carry all their shite to the upper deck

Any opposing bands location in Davis Wade Stadium is a decision form their own school. MS State doesn't dictate where the opposing band is placed. Obviously, that school wanted their fans nearer to the field than their band. Get your facts straight there buddy
