re: The aTm fan who had the football road trip

There is a big thread on Texags. In summary, Columbia was a step down from the other SEC road trips. Students gave LSU a run for their money. TONS of salty language and most seemed to be from girls. Alumni were clash and friendly.

My wife and I do all the Aggie road games and the SC students were not rude but went out of their way not to look at us or speak to us on campus which seemed odd. We love to walk campuses on game day and meet people. In two hours only 2 students spoke to us. Bought an SC hat in the gift shop- not even a smile.

Tailgating was minimal and the stadium was off campus of course which was odd. We had a contact in the Reserved tailgating area which was sweet.

Stadium was fine. Very loud at kick off and got quiet quickly. Not a fan of piped on music but liked Sandstorm.

Since it was a Thursday night game and a holiday weekend,everyone stayed and went to Charleston, Myrtle. Beach etc which was the hightlight of everyone's trip. LOVED CHARLESTON!!!!!
