Been to all except Mizzou.

I think Auburn is one of the best atmospheres outside of Tiger Stadium of course

I’ve been to all in the West, including both Arkansas venues. In the East, I’ve only been to Florida and Tennessee.

This corona bullshite has made me cherish life in a different way and makes me want to do whatever I want. I plan on getting to the other 5 as soon as I can, even if it isn’t for LSU games.

I dated a girl who’s sister went to UGA. This was in the 90’s. I went to a game and must admit that the stadium and hedges were really nice. Other than UT I haven’t been to many others.

I’ve only been to games at LSU (last missed one in 2009), Alabama twice, Ole Miss and the new Tulane. I hope to go to more SEC stadiums soon though. I’d rank them Death Valley, Bryant Denny (although the sound system is leagues better than LSU), the Vaught and then Yulman (neither is anything special to me).

Also been to the Superdome many times, Mercedes Benz twice, the Georgia Dome and Jerry World. Love the Superdome but the New Benz blows it out of the water. Jerry World was nice too but I haven’t been in a while.

As an LSU fan, obviously I haven’t been to Missouri. Also I haven’t been to South Carolina. I was going a few years ago when the game was moved here because of the flood. Went to A&M back in the 90’s so not as a member of the sec.

I liked several but Gainesville is the absolute worst.

I think South Carolina is the most underrated. There was also a giant fair going on when we went, making the experience that much better.

ETA: It was the worst I’ve ever been treated by opposing fans, though, which was a surprise.

Since the 1950’s I’ve been to 13 of 14 never having made “The Zou” in Columbia.

Friends from Florida, GA, TN, MS, and TX who have come to watch an LSU game with me over the years have all sat in shock and awe of the wondrous spectacle of Death Valley on Saturday Night. Whether it was a Ralph and Kacoo Lunch or tailgating cookout, we always had an amazing time. My life has been terribly blessed being an LSU Tiger.

I found that I have made few friends from the state of Alabama except around Dothan and they were Gator Fans or Seminoles.

I don’t want to talk bad about anybody’s stadium but that old MSU stadium was just ...

Alabama - Bryant-Denny many times. Amenities are top notch. Fans are usually fairly mild, could be a lot better. Loudest game I ever saw there was 2005 Florida.

LSU - Death Valley. Was there for the tie game in the 80's. NOBODY left that game happy. Maybe the loudest stadium I have been in, and that was at far less capacity than they are now. Seemed very old, though, and I understand that recent renovations are very nice.

Ole Miss Vaught-Hemingway - Meh. The real action is in the Grove. People there are very nice ond often invite you to join them for food and refreshments.

Arkansas - Fayeteville pre-latest renovation. Served the media ribs, which was nice. Stadium was OK, but the field turf on the edges had more rubber pellets in it than you could imagine. You would take three steps and have a shoe full of rubber grit. Awful.

Miss St - Wade - sat in a box on the 40 yd line and ate ribeye sammiches. I liked it OK. :-)

Missouri - Faurot Field - have been there but not for a game, visited last year and was outside the stadium.

Kentucky - visited back in the 80's. Was OK. Parked in a field right up against the stadium a few minutes before game time. Filled up very very slow. But thought the stadium was ok then, I have been told that the renovations are very nice.

Vanderbilt - the seating is great - the stands are elevated a bit above field level so you can see over the players better than most stadiums. Plus, it is so small that there is really not a bad seat in the house. What is absolutely abysmal is the concourses. You will not get anywhere in a hurry, they are so small and packed. Pro tip - if you have a road trip there, order Vandy season tickets. Sell the other SEC games online, donate the rest to the Nashville Boys Club or some other charity. You'll make out like a bandit.

Tennessee - have visited twice, horribly tight seating for anyone that weighs over 110 lbs. They literally have some 13" wide bench seating. You can tell in some spots where they repainted the aluminum bench seats to make the seats narrower and increase capacity. Very vertical stands. Miserable all around.

Auburn - JH - very solid fan enthusiasm, loud all the time. I don't get the love for the stadium though, lots of exposed steel at least on my end and trash everywhere. Way better inside the stadium than outside.

Have not visited at all:- Texas A&M, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina.

Have visited in some capacity, either game or field visit: Southern Miss, Clemson, Kansas State, Colorado, Utah, Weber State, Utah State, New Mexico State, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, UCLA, USC, Georgia Dome, Super Dome, Liberty Bowl.

I'm sure I am forgetting some.
