It was ridiculous. My girlfriend was so terrified that she said she will never go back with me to Columbia again.


This is getting silly. You guys have got to be exaggerating. Give it a rest, it wasn't that bad, and it aint like athens is very hospitable to away fans. I remember even letting a georgia college student use my phone after chatting with him after the game last year. He was a nice kid.

I also remember the section of the fairground where most uga fans had large tailgating groups just absolutely covered in trash... Is this intentional, something you do everywhere you go?

Why the frick would I make this up? I have been to Knoxville, Baton Rouge, Tuscaloosa, etc. and never had a problem. The difference between them and you is they act like they have won a big game before because...well they have won a big game before.

We also left in the 3rd quarter and were by ourselves walking through the fairgrounds so we were easy targets for all the drunk assholes. I had a blast before the game and I know that it was a small minority of the fans, but it only takes 1 group of people crossing the line to ruin the trip.

Agreed. I was w/ 40+ UGA fans over the course of the day/game/evening and aside from one who got tossed out for sneaking liquor into the stadium no one brought up being treated poorly. I get that a few boozy fans yelling at you can make you feel uncomfortable, but UGA fans on the Rant have mythologized this experience into being something roughly akin to surviving Thunderdome.

I've never seen our fans, on the whole, treat any visitors like UGA fans here are claiming. Not even Clemson fans. Seems like a lot of sore losers who aren't used to taking an L in Columbia (especially not in that fashion) grasping at whatever negatives they can to assuage their egos.

For the record, I love Athens. Favorite road trip in the SEC. But next time y'all put an arse-whipping on us look around at how some of the shadier elements of your fanbase treat the visitors. Nothing anyone should be unable to handle, but it might give y'all a little perspective on your 2012 Columbia experience.
