Never really had a bad one as a visiting fan but the most recent bad fan experience (outside of win/loss) that I've had at a football game was in war memorial stadium 2018.
We were on a 4 game winning streak against Ole Miss and then WMS happened - so we continued our losing streak against the Rebs in little rock:
The worst part though wasn't the loss it was the fact that fans didn't get into the game until mid 1st quarter because the idiots didn't know how to work metal detectors. They ended up just waving people by. Didn't even ask for tickets just wave everyone into the stadium.
Then you add the shitty weather and it was just a god awful experience.

I went to a red river rivalry game a couple years ago and it actually it was pretty tame. That said it's a great setting and definitely a fun day

Harry Rex Vonner attended the 1994 Alabama/Tennessee game in Neyland as a non-partial spectator
Harry Rex chatted up a nice old man next to him, Tennessee fan, and then later proceeded to be screamed at by a mullet-adorned Vol fan. Mullet Guy was exhorting Harry Rex to "Get it up!", i.e., to get fired up for the Vols.
I then leaned down toward him and yelled "Roll Tide!!!!!!!" and a fight did not ensue, thankfully. The old man next to me refused to speak with me for the rest of the game.
Alabama won and I lived to see another tomorrow.
I did not and still don't consider this a bad experience actually.

Ive never had a personal bad experience but nearly every time I have gone to an LSU game I always witness a scuffle. Funny thing is its always two LSu fans fighting with each other and probably traffic related.

I've never really had a bad experience at away games.
Got thrown out of pretty much every bar we went to in Athens, but we had a group of 12+
Had some Texas baw tried to fight us in Austin after Jefferson's TD to seal the win
Bama fans are too scared to talk shite to me so I've never had an issue with them

Looks like the Arky paper is slacking, they used to have great game day cartoons
I remember one year the Hogs were going to Florida during the Spurrier era and they had a great cartoon of the Arkansas mascot in a ricketly old boat rowing through a swamp, right behind him was a huge outline of a smiling gator kind of like the cheshire cat.

Still one of the loudest games I've been to in Tiger Stadium. #9 LSU was coming off a tough loss to Florida and #3 USC had beaten the dogshit out of UGA the week before. We had a lot of Gamecock fans at our tailgate, great people
That's the loudest game I've ever been to. That was one hell of an environment.

Just from our standpoint, we try to bark at, spit at and knock little old grannies down stairs...so I would think Georgia would be a horrific trip for anybody. If you don't believe me just ask an Auburn fan. They'll tell in in short order.
I've been to UGA 5 or 6 times over the years. It's always a fun time. I'll say this though, alumni UGA fans are some of the best in the country. Sidewalk UGA fans are some of the worst.

Worst experience was 2012 South Carolina. Not the fans or the stadium. Fans before and after were awesome. But watching your team get so thoroughly dominated in such a great atmosphere makes it way worse
Our fans were crazy that game. Not afraid to admit that we had a lot of people out of control. Definitely the craziest environment I've seen at Williams Brice.

I’ve had a terrible terrible time just walking around bds InTuscaloosa. People trying to get in my face and fight when they are up a ton. Just stupid fans
Alabama fans just ignored us in 2009 haha. They seemed pretty arrogant. I guess that's understandable considering South Carolina's football history.

I have never had a bad experience but my best experience was at South Carolina in 2018 for Mizzou vs South Carolina. Was just walking by the cockaboose's (or however its spelled) and ended up getting invited on by Carolina fans before the game.

Glad you enjoyed it! I'm hoping to make it to Missouri for a game in the next couple of years. It's definitely on the list.

I'm going to South Carolina again this year for the Mizzou game. So hopefully another great experience and Mizzou used to be awesome for pregame festivities but these past couple of years have fallen off. Fans just not interested cause we never knew if we were going to play good or super bad so they just didnt go. Easier to watch a bad game on TV lol.

Tiger stadium. Drunk lsu fans screaming at a group of A&M college kids. Followed them to their car. Needless to say a few country boy arse whippins were handed out.
So they were sober enough to whip your arse?

Been to every stadium in the SEC except Missou. Never had a bad experience. If you take the opposing fans’ razzing as a part of the experience and give back in a good-natured way, I think most experiences are good.
Most visiting fans I’ve ever heard of having bad experiences brought it on themselves.

Oh man, that sucks. I've never been to a game there, but I'd like to go once just for Enter Sandman.
