Had a good pregame experience at Houndstooth's. Alabama fans were cool at that place. BDS is a beautifully done stadium, but I thought it was surprisingly tame and not nearly as loud as I expected for a game of this magnitude. The piped in music and the Cochran yelling were absolutely atrocious. I'm biased as an LSU fan, but I wasn't impressed by the in-game experience. Yall have a good coach and team, though.

It was my first time to Tuscaloosa. The campus, town and people were much better than I anticipated. The tailgating was very poor compared to what I expected. Just another reminder that no one does a college football atmosphere like LSU. The in-stadium experience was intense but the amount of music, past highlights and advertisements made it miserable (along with LSU's effort) and fake.
the tailgating you are right is not very good. Even on nice days out for whatever reason the quad is never fully full. Its not like Ole Miss or LSU those are by far better tailgating then Bama. What Bama does have that makes it good is the access to the bars and the frat houses. With them being so close its alot of fun hitting the bars and walking 100 yards to the stadium.
As for the music and Cochran. I love that stuff, especially Cochran. Love the rap music between plays on defense. I hate how they dont play dixie land delight anymore. Nothing cooler then being at a big game and having that come on and the stadium scream. Kind of like playing callin Baton Rouge in TS.
The video boards are small, but with the way the stadium was constructed I dont know where you could have put them in to make them bigger.

I guess you weren't, our "in-game" experience is meant to make you feel exactly the way you did when you left. Our fans enjoy football, not acting like fools.
