I attend almost all UGA games - home and away. I was there for our first game - you know the one where your big mouthed players got us and our team riled up by saying you were going to teach US to play big boy football or something along those lines. I guess we should thank you as it added a lot of juice to a game no one really wanted to see or play. Just the fact that so many Ga fans made that trip shows you how much we love our Dawgs. I missed the next game or so in Columbia but I hauled myself on that long boring drive to Columbia another time we played. Your stadium was undergoing renovations but you still had those ridiculous rocks in the end zone. For Gawds sake if you are going to be in the SEC stop looking like a high school stadium in the poor part of town. Use some of that SEC $ to fix up the place and please get better turf. That stuff looks horrible. Even though I don’t remember all the details I visited St Louis and Columbia as a child when my father had business trips in the area. I saw nothing that came close to being Southern. I do remember seeing cowboy hats, boots and belt buckles as big as a dinner plate. I was young and thought we must be close to Texas. And yes some of your fans on that first football trip were quite drunk and in our faces after we beat you. Probably one reason I didn’t go again for awhile. We get enough of that type of behavior every time we go to Tennessee, we don’t need to experience it in Missouri too
