My experience was actually pretty good. Now, granted, this may be because we didn't spend a lot of time walking around the tailgates - pretty much went straight from the shuttle into the stadium. Everyone we talked to was very nice. We got a few comments from a group of students on the way out, but nothing you wouldn't get in the SEC.

However, aside from NYC, there is absolutely no reason to go back. Stadium was only 3/4 full and they had piped in music on a bad sound system the whole game. Atmosphere was nothing like what I expect at a college football game. The third down air guitar was ridiculous.

I will say it was pretty loud for the amount of people. Just reinforces how much we need to enclose the NEZ.

I'm glad to hear your experience with the Rutgers fans wasn't too bad. I was wondering about that since the handful of times I've been around Jersey folks it was less than pleasurable, to put it nicely.

No offense to whatever polite NJ citizens might exist.

I guess we just happened to stumble into the drunkiest of the drunk or something.

But yeah, it was pretty comical how empty the stadium was for being such a HUGE home game for them. It's not like it's a huge place or anything.

But you're right about the sound. When they wanted to, it got pretty loud.
