I've been to LSU and USCe.

I have not been to aTm.

Between the 2 that I have been to I would for sure choose LSU as a return.

I've been to all SEC stadiums except aTm, UK, Arky, Mizz, and strangely enough UGA.

I was a season ticket holder from '92-'06 and each of those years my group would choose one away game to go to. It was expensive back then I can't imagine the cost of taking a family of 5 for all home games and an away trip.

Final thought from me I know you are trying to go to all the SEC stadiums but for me this year Penn State would definitely be the place to go. Never know if in our life time we will get a chance. I might even try to purchase tickets to that game myself. I think they are around $1K for a pair.

One more thing. Columbia SC is a shithole. Crime infested.

The stadium is great but Lexington (just across the river) and Columbia are nothing but crime and unless I just missed a great experience outside of the game there was basically nothing to do.

Wow!

It will be interesting to see what happens in the ticket market this season.

OTOH, people may want to experience live sports more intensely because things were so limited last year.

Conversely, people got used to weekends having a different rhythm because attending a game was not an option.

I think some people will continue without live sports attendance. Golf, hunting, other outdoor activities gained popularity. Available free time goes up when you are not going back and forth to games. The upside is that schools will likely have to really work to make the game day experience more “valuable.”

Time will tell.
