ESPN ranked The Grove as the number two college football tailgating spot in the country.[8] In its review, it said:[8] “ Tailgating in The Grove is an experience so sublime even native son William Faulkner would be at a loss to describe it. ”
Additionally, Sports Illustrated ranked The Grove number one.[5] In its review, it said:[5] “ There is no more beautiful spot to tailgate, nor one richer in tradition; the Grove has been the site of pregame picnicking for more than half a century. ”
The New York Times called The Grove "the mother and mistress of outdoor ritual mayhem":[2] “ The glory of the Grove is legend at all of Ole Miss’s rival schools in the Southeastern Conference and beyond. It is the mother and mistress of outdoor ritual mayhem. ” A common saying by "grovers" is "We may not win every game, but we've never lost a party."[2]
Joe Cahn, known as "The Commissioner of Tailgating", said after his 2003 Tailgating tour that The Grove is "probably the most single outstanding tailgating area in the country."[9] He continued: “ There may be bigger…there may be louder…but there truly isn’t any better tailgating than Ole Miss. ”
The Columbia Missourian newspaper called The Grove, "the mecca of tailgating in American sports."[6]

Yeah you guys think it sucks, but ESPN, Sports Illustrated, and The New York times disagree with you. What's that, you don't care what smart, cultured, travelled sports fans think? That's fine then.
