I know I make crowd judgments based on Covid attendance because I’m as dumb as the average Georgian.

NO one obsesses over Misery. Don’t flatter yourselves. However we do get frustrated that the SEC allowed such a pitiful excuse for a program into our conference. The SEC should have at least demanded that stadium upgrades be made once the SEC money started rolling in. And I’m not just talking about removing a track. Get the junk off the field. No one is impressed that y’all have boxes, ladders and junk and think it’s cool to display them like modern art. Do something about that artificial turf. It’s damn ugly. And for Gawds sake I hope those tacky rocks have really been removed. Every time I’ve been there our fans are laughing at all the people sitting in those ugly ugly rocks. It’s not a picnic in the park, it’s a football game. An SEC football game - and it should look like one. Not a hill billy reunion

Damn. This was a hell of a rant for not caring about Mizzou.

I am glad yall added some carpet.

I have always wondered about teams with similar stadiums where the first row is 50-70' away. Why not lower the playing surface and build on more rows to shorten the gap?

I enjoyed my visit to Mizzou in 2017. Actually liked the stadium. Granted, the seats emptied quickly, but a pleasant fanbase and experience.

I think Faurot Field is already down to bedrock which is also why growing grass has been such a bitch.

Ideally you're right though.

That turf has been bothering SEC fans for a decade

The only way we get rid of it, is if we build a new stadium

Un-ironic post from a guy who has a car on blocks on his dirt driveway and a major appliance on the wooden floor of his porch.

Sorry for partying. I’m sure you at least enjoyed the Booneville casino, barking at children, and found the drive thru fast food to be adequate.
