Coldest Game You've Been To

I think it was 95 when Miss State came to Tuscaloosa and the high that day was in the mid 30's with a very stiff breeze. Wind chill was in the teens all day, and it was just a miserable day in Bryant Denny Stadium.

I've been to a few...
Ole Miss vs ULM 08 was the coldest I've ever been at a game. Stayed at a friends the night before. Wore a short sleeved shirt. It was great when I left at like 9:30 and then a cold front blew in. Mid 30s with a touch of sleet at kickoff. Windy. Miserable.

One time the spurs ac broke and it was 60 degrees or something. Ironic right?

2000 Iron Bowl. The weather was awful and so was the game. It was spitting snow and sleet before the game and it just never got any better.

2007 Liberty Bowl
it was overcast all day, windy, and mid 30's.

1991 against Baylor in Fayetteville (last SWC game here). Sleeted the entire game, astroturf was like ice. Drank a fifth of Jim Beam with the GF and felt sober when we left.

92 SEC Championship game was like that. I wore blue jeans and a flannel shirt and was miserable by the 4th quarter. Sweet lady behind us gave me her blanket.

Well, I could nominate quite a few here.
UK/UGA when I was an undergrad in 80 or 81. Seven degrees at kickoff for a night game.
UK/Cincy 1995 in Lexington. Heavy snow, mid twenties at kickoff.
All time, however, has to be the 1981 AFC championship game between the Bengals and the Chargers at Riverfront in Cincy. Well below zero at kickoff. The windchill was 40 something below zero. Tons of snow on the ground. Ohio River was frozen over. Thought we were going to get stranded and die on I-75 on the way back to Lexington. Only way we got through that was the heaters in the bathrooms at the stadium.

I think Mizzou might win this argument
Coldest game I have ever been to was the 2008 Big 12 Championiship Game vs. Oklahoma. It was in KC and snowing like mad, it was around 30 degrees at kickoff and got much colder by the end. Only Mizzou game I've ever left early (OU crushed Mizzou), and I've been to some BAD Mizzou games.

2007 UK/UT game. 29º at the start of the game. After 4 overtimes UT prevailed 52-50. Every guy that stayed until the end had blue balls from the cold.

Browns Steelers in like 2009. Was about 6 degrees at kick and got down to about -10. Beer was undrinkable because it froze pretty much immediately.

I went to a Browns/Oilers playoff game around 87 o r88 in the old stadium by the lake. Kosar was hurt and I forget the backup's name. Oilers won. It was cold, but not miserable.

New Stadium is in the same spot

That's what I was thinking. I think that was the last time I went to that stadium. Used to go to Indians games all the time when my grandparents lived in Akron.

This. And I couldn't believe the number of women I saw there with just a sweater, decorative scarf and a light jacket. Idiots.

Went to this game and he isn't lying. Game was boring as shite as well iirc.
Coldest game I've ever been to was Titans vs. Dolphins game. It snowed a little bit and was like less than 20 degrees out.
I was not missing going to a Titan's game for the first time in a few years.
