They ran out of beer in Blacksburg.

That has happened at several road venues where LSU fans are involves. I don't know whether to be proud of that or not (I like beer myself), but most LSU fans seem pleased as can be.

I was in Blacksburg that year, but not in the part of town where the showdown took place.

I do know that they didn't know how to take us.

One asked a friend "Do ya'll always travel like this". His response was that this was pretty common in the SEC.

I will say I can well recall a time when I could get as many road tickets as I wanted all together and down low for trips to Gainesville, College Station and Auburn. And only a mere 10 years ago.

Those days are gone and it means success, which I like, but I miss not having to scratch and claw to get tickets for our yearly group trip.
