What's your plan in the morning? Mine is as pretty much stated above.

I got to downtown Athens at about 8:00 AM, then found a tailgate to hang out with next to Stegeman Coliseum. They were very welcoming, so thank you, I think Sam was the main guy's name. They packed up at 10:30 for the noon kickoff, so if you're on here, hello, I was the LSU fan. It was very chilly when I got there, but it definitely warmed up by kickoff. Fortunately, you had a large Gatorade-like cooler with fountains to refill cold water on the upper concourse, because when I went to my seat with my water bottle, it warmed up pretty fast. So I could dump my bottle to refill with some cold water, thanks for that.

As for the game itself, that's been talked about enough on here, I'm sure. The weather was great, if a little too hot directly in the sun, I spent halftime in the concourse just to stay in the shade. But it was closer than I was expecting. And your postgame traffic is better than ours, by the time I got back to my car in downtown Athens, a lot of it had already cleared out. I had a great time, Athens is an awesome college town. I know I didn't get the best of it, but it was nice to get a taste.
