This is a true story, just posted on UGA board, thought y'all might enjoy this...
I am not 100%, but I believe it was the 1982 game
My dad took my brother and me to the game against South Carolina on the road. We stayed at the Holiday Inn downtown, the hotel was mostly booked with Georgia fans.
We pistol whipped the Gamecocks, and had a great time.
I snuck away after the game while dad was partying and snuck into a bar. YES, I got served and I came damned close to picking up one of the local barflies (wasn't meant to be...)
Anyway, I made it back to the hotel without getting caught and passed out in the hotel bed, dad had 2 rooms that were connected, brother & me in one, him and his buddy in the other.
Well, sometime really late in the night, a disgruntled Gamecock fan climbed onto the roof of the hotel and dropped a smoke bomb into an air shaft. It was a total shitshow. There were a bunch of pissed off UGA fans outside. Fire department was there, sirons blaring.
Me? There was NO waking me up. My brother had already left and was outside. My dad had to get a hotel manager to take him to my room to open the door (we had left our side of the connecting doors shut) and drag me out for the fire alarm, which was super loud.
He STILL gets pissed talking about how ridiculous it was that I was so hard to wake up with all that racket and commotion
Anyway, Go Dawgs! (but I do hope y'all go 11-1)
