Just curious about what your pro's & con's are even if you just watched it on tv... so stadium, atmosphere, tailgating, campus, fan experiences etc.
It was a great game yesterday (even though we lost), glad we're finally in the SEC.

atmosphere was good but that is the worst designed stadium I have every seen

Y'all are definitely hardcore enough to be an SEC school, unlike Missou. Atmosphere looked great, I think y'all are a good fit.

Your fans' loud booing of the injured Florida players left a bad taste in my mouth, that's chicken shite.

Though I didn't attend the game, I did go through College Station in July and I saw their stadium and school and my impression is that it is a glorified Starkville. However, the play on the field and the enthusiasm is SEC caliber, for sure. But I'm never going to be okay with this 'yell leader' situation.

Back to the OP. I visited with quite a few gators and gave out a few beers. Most of them were very kind. Got a lot of positive reviews about getting to go on the field after the game which actually has only been going on at A&M for the last decade or so. I was very impressed with how far so many folks traveled for the game, many by car.
Only bad experience I had was when I was down on the field a gator guy came up to me and offered me $5 to be able to try a field goal with my football (I was playing with my son). I told him to keep his money but held it for him and let him try. He shanked it and it hit a guy in the head pretty badly and he immediately took off so I went over to the guy and apologized and made sure he was ok which he was. It's a hazard down there and people get hit but no reason to be an arse.

Just by watching it on tv, the atmosphere was phenomenal. Its definitely an SEC type of place. I'm still confused at how the architecture of that stadium can generate so much noise. Great game!

Lots of crap on this thread.
Aggies:
We have a problem with not giving other team/fans the benefit of the doubt, whether it is injuries, coach post-game pressers, or MSC grass. And I am guilty of this too. Quit assuming everybody is out to shite on us because of who we are.If they are out to shite on us it is because we are the opposing fans. Shocker. What do you expect?
Thanks for the complements, Gator fans. Good luck the rest of the way.

That place is amazing. Those chants and singing send chills up a persons spine. Seem cult like. I'd hate to be an opposing player there
I truly believe aTm have one of the best fan bases in the SEC considering they don't have much of a championship history.
