fans are nice and engaging


Damn, I must smell bad or something. I have been to the last two LSU / OM games in Oxford and have yet to have been engaged by any fans in the Grove. Outside the Grove, yes, fans have been friendly but have yet been invited to stop and talk, have a beverage or anything.

I will also add that I am an OM alum and used to park my car in the Grove when going to games....current OM fans don't like to hear about that.

As others mentioned, just don't make a big show of pouring your beer into your red Solo cup and you should be fine. I once asked a OM police officer if I could smoke a cigar in the Grove, his advice was not to...said that he personally didn't care but that the campus was technical smoke free and that some "Karen" (his phrase) would surely ask him to make me throw it away. I gave him one for his advice and waited until later to light up.

It's a fun trip, never had any problems and always interesting to see what OM fans consider to be the premier tailgate in the SEC.

If it’s still there, some really good barbecue at the bait shop gas station by the airport. I think it’s called miss bees or something.

It’s off the regular path so it’s not crowded usually
