Having not been to a lot of SEC stadiums, here is how I rank the ones I have visited:

LEAST HOSPITABLE: Ole Miss - It's hard to separate the dumpiness of that stadium from the overall experience. To be honest, I didn't even know there were any OM fans there. Very quiet. Not much interaction with us before, during or after the game. Just kind of kept to themselves.

UTENN: My only trip there was the Stoernover game. Again, the stadium was definitely not a place I would care to visit again. Not sure what was worse, the 7,240 vertical feet we had to traverse up a switchback ramp to reach our upper deck seats, or the fact that each seat on the bleacher was about as wide as one of my arse cheeks. But enough about that stadium, the fans were generally very cordial to us. Didn't taunt us after the heartbreaking loss. Most said they are worried about the expected rematch in Atlanta (that never materialized). I liked the TU band playing our fight song before the game. Only negative I saw was when they scored the go-ahead TD, there was a large group of students in the upper deck that thew an empty wine bottle from the upper deck, into the section of Hog fans below. Not sure if anyone was hit, but if they were, it was sure to injure.

LSU: My LSU-alum wife took me to an LSU-Houston game. We had a blast. Since LSU was playing Houston, I was able to wear an LSU cap and not feel like I was cheating on my Hogs. Great food. Ample booze. GOLDEN GIRLS.
