Arkansas - Little Rock: Always have fun, but it's been the day after Turkey day for LSU, and it's generally a tame experience and the ARKY fans seem to stick to themselves. War Memorial is a joke.
Tennessee: Pretty campus, the hills wear my arse out, tailgating for most really means opening the tailgate and drinking a few cold ones in the parking garage. Easy going fans. Neyland needs a facelift.
Vanderbilt: Awesome location. Nice campus. LSU has as many fans tailgating as Vandy does. It's different but cool. Can't beat their bar/food scene. Stadium half empty is unfortunate.
Alabama: Have been three times and experiences have been different each time. Met many great fans the first time in 2005 and went back in 2009 & 2011 and met pockets of good and bad. I didn't like how many and spread out the RV lots are. Bryant Denny looks good now. Always have fun though.
Ole Miss: The Grove cracks me up. Always party in Memphis night before. Lack of hotels sucks. I personally think it's over rated, but we still have a great time. I like the females dressed up. I feel sorry for the guys(ridiculous in 90 degrees). I prefer the Ole Miss fans now in their current position(losing).
Florida: I haven't enjoyed either trip from a tailgating standpoint. Couldn't believe how inhospitable some of the fans were. Jorts are out of control. The Northend(whatever it's called) strip is cool. The swamp gets damn loud. RV lots are way too far from stadium. Never had a problem with police as I respected their silly laws.
I'm tired of this. Might add more later.
