I like the 1983 Florida St. Game at night in Tiger stadium. Winner to Orange Bowl. Penalties against us for fans throwing oranges all over field. Very exciting night in Death Valley. Beat the shite out of them

Every year I pick 1 game to try and attend at home. Usually it's against a quality opponent and a 50-50 or less chance of victory. 1997 vs. #1 Fla. was awesome. 2022 vs Ala. was epic! Both night games (of course) in Tiger Stadium. Wish I would have been there for the LSU vs Fla. game where Hester willed the team to victory. Typical Les Miles type of game. Looking forward to LSU vs ALA 2024! Geaux Tigers!

Goodness there has been so many
I’ve actually had tears of sadness, tears of joy, cursing in frustration, shook my head is disbelief, been pleased beyond expectations.
I love my Tigers

The older you get it becomes harder to pin point but there are always those few that stand out. I’ve mentioned before Florida 97 - rushed field with my dad as a senior in high school drank some crown with him at mid field .

So glad I chose to sit with him that night.

UGA 03 tennesse 2000 those were special for man reasons also being young in college and carefree only added to the electricity aeound campus.

As an older adult now Florida 2019 bama 22 those were games that brought me back 15-20 years

Truthfully for all the changes over the years one thing remains . When the tigers are good and the game is big and the crowd is right thefe isn’t a better venue for a sporting event. IMO

One of the best OOC games in TS History IMO.

It was also 1 of the HOTTEST Tailgates I can remember too. Never forget Keiland & his massively impressive CALVES!!!

I was there and this one is my favorite game as well. I was a freshman in Tiger Band for this game. When Steve Lavinghouse missed the field goal for Ole Miss with just over 3 minutes to go, Bill Swor had us play the fight song continually, over and over. That's when Bert Jones took the team the length of the field and Brad Davis scored on the last play. Rusty Jackson's extra point put us over the top and the rest is history. We played music in the stands for 30 minutes after the game and the stands were still full. The only section that was empty was the Ole Miss area!

Any of my 3 games with the 2019 team. Florida, Georgia, and Oklahoma. I brought my dad with me to the Peach Bowl, and I love how he was screaming at us to go for 2, so we could hit 50 at halftime. Just total domination.

I was there with my Dad as a senior in High School. Went to LSU the next year. That was the last game I ever attended with my Dad. Sitting at the goal line on the West side. Brad Davis caught the ball on the east side. I could only tell by the crowd noise that it was a TD. We still had to kick the extra point.

LSU vs TN 2003 SEC Championship. I was on the field with a media pass.

Close 2nd - Georgia (The Skylar Green TD to win it) On the field. Green caught the TD right in front of me. Student section went into complete bedlam.

Have only been to a handful, so this year's (2023 season) Florida game. Angel Reese walked right past us in the PMAC (smiled at us), and we got to meet Shaq on the LSU sidelines right before halftime (I was there with a few HS band seniors on a recruiting trip).

Last year's NC baseball team and 2003 NC football team were all around where we were as well.
