I've always heard the stories about Tiger Stadium being a rough place to visit for opposing fans. My son-in-law is from Lafayette and his family invited us down for the game. First, the food was off the charts incredible. You folks know how to tailgate. Four of us, dressed in Bama gear took a walk around campus. Sure there were some "Tiger Baits", but it was all in good fun. I've never been treated better at any SEC school. We were offered food and beers at many tailgates. Great experience and a beautiful campus! At the game was the loudest I have ever experienced. I could literally feel my ears ringing. That interception on Bama's first possession was clearly due to crowd noise. Hurts was very shook up. Anyone who says Tigers Stadium is not intimidating has never been or is just trolling. No problems after the game. Lots of "good game and beat Auburn" I left with a new found respect for LSU and your passion for the game. Good Luck against the pigs and gators. Sorry post is so long.

I find this account suspect as there are no mention of corn dogs or piss balloons...

Alabama are my favorite fans to host. The traveling fan base for yalls school is the most fun to tailgate with and the games are always a blast, even when we lose. Auburn fans should take note. Your fans are trashy as frick when they come to Tiger Stadium.

I had a great time too. Tailgated all day then got tickets for $100 each outside stadium from an L6U fan. Will go back next time.

Truth. I'll never forget the two grandma age Auburn fans who sat behind us one year. Trashy, potty mouthed - and I swear one of them was using chewing tobacco.

It was a phenomenal atmosphere. How fun was that, right? Not just the kind of environment attached to a random football game, but a cultural expression of joy and fellowship that is a giant statement about the people of South Louisiana. That is eseentially "who we are". We had friends in from FIJI (first American football game) and they were completely blown away and overwhelmed by our culture. This is all before we ever even went into the raucous steel drum that was Tiger Stadium. My body has still not recovered. I am very proud of what I experienced and saw on Saturday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. It was truly special.

I'm glad you "got it" and I'm glad you had a great experience. Thanks for cutting though the message board ugliness.

I like when Alabama comes here. Their girls are the best in the SEC.

No self respecting LSU fan wants Bama to win it all.

Generally speaking, I've shared your experiences. For all the shite that gets talked on message boards, I've found them to be incredibly hospitable. Never had a bad experience at Tiger Stadium. Wasn't able to make it this year, but looking forward to being able to get back in 2018.
