That's pretty generous for visitors at AU, honestly.

LSU used to have more visitor seats in the lower bowl, but redistributed them when the SEZ expansion opened iirc. Lowered the number of lower bowl and spread em out on the upper decks.

That's pretty much conference standard as I understand.

Before game: Welcome to town, want a beer? If you guys need anything, let us know.

During game: frick you, you white trash piece of shite.

After game: hope you guys enjoyed our campus. Please come back any time.




You guys are louder than we are. Helluva home field advantage you guys get there.

Dude, every school does that now. Frankly, I don't like it but it is what it is.

Never inside any stadium...was at a bar in Knoxville in '01 with a bunch of angry UT fans and Kevin Nash of all people got me out trouble and I was able to help me leave in peace.Never had an issue at AU,Clemson,Bama,OM or Vandy.

Ask an Ole Miss fan to share his fictitious cowbell assault story. They all have one or two.

Tiger Stadium! You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. You must be cautious.

In the mid 90's I was at a game at VHS when some frat boys started throwing liquor bottles and happened to hit one of their own fans seated below us. Dude had to be helped out and was covered in blood with serious head injury.

Can you imagine what you'd do if that happened to one your family members?

Didn't go but the old orange bowl in Miami was full of trash fans when UF was there in 2003

Eta: non sec but still

To be fair, both teams kind of lost that day.

In reference to the OP, does a visit to War Memorial count? Not on game day, but one Saturday in the fall I did get robbed at gunpoint just a couple blocks away.

Apparently au has done away with putting most away fans in one section like most schools and spreads them out a few dozen at a time here and there around the whole stadium. Bastards.



I am not sure why UGA fans make up so much stuff about Auburns ticket system

True story though 99 game was my first in Sanford, end of the half until it started to really clear out in the 3rd, I was surprised I made it through unscathed. Your fans were raining full cups down on the AU student section.

Have you ever felt like your life was in danger.


Walking up the steps in the upper deck at Neyland with a coke in one hand, aisle not wide enough for two way traffic, and no hand rail...worried that I might slip/get knocked down 20 rows of concrete steps by someone passing the other way.

Does that count?

Not even an opponents stadium. We sat in a men's bathroom in Starkville while a tornado bounced over the stadium. Then went out and watched MSU lose to Troy

Can confirm this story. I was sitting in the old Alumni Center building behind the east grandstand, watching Ole Miss play Alabama through the weather alerts on TV.

I don't know which was worse: Losing to Troy or then doing the research and realizing that Troy had more talent and should have won
