CSB We did ESPN Club at the WDW Boardwalk during Food & Wine Fest for LSU-Bama in 2011 during the infamous 9-6 OT Tiger win. One of the best away LSU games of my life. ESPN Club knew they'd have a big turnout and they did. (Extra outside bars,tables,servers,monitors, and projection screen) Crowd there at game time with Bama Crimson colors outnumbering Tiger purple & gold about 65-35%. Don't have to remind you of Bama's kicking issues that night. Just as it started to sprinkle outside where we were seated, (right after beginning of overtime) The wife asked if we could finish listening to the game on the car radio riding back to our hotel at Polynesian. I reluctantly agreed, because I was also streaming game on my phone. We offered our table (SRO) to 4 Alabama fans and told them "Good Luck" as we began walking back to parking lot. We honestly could not have been any nicer. However, as they are sitting down, one of the Gumps looks at the wife and I and says "You're the ones that are gonna need any 'good luck'! Roll Tide, baby! They were so tickled with themselves that they began high-fiving over the 'cleverness; of their pithy comment. The wife who was half-lit anyways, says, "F*ck it,I ain't leaving. We're gonna stay RIGHT here". The rest is how you say, history.
As you likely well know, Alabama missed a 52-yard field goal... The wife didn't make a peep. She just started angrily nodding her head. When LSU set up for the kick, she started quietly going, "Uh huh, that's right, uh huh" still nodding her head up and down... but now, MUCH more confidently -- Not unlike an angry rooster. Let's just say, her Tiger swagger was obviously growing to a crescendo as each second passed. When LSU then connected on that game-winning 25-yard field goal and won the game 9–6. She went off on those four like a shook up bottle of Coca-Cola. I had NEVER seen her so "IN YOUR FACE!" She is normally one of the nicest, good sportsmanship, and 'Congratulations'-style Tiger fans, I know. But the whole thing just hit her the wrong way that night.
She walks back to the table and tells the guy, "We offered you our seats, we wished you 'Good Luck',and like a typical Alabama a-hole, you have to be a dickhead about it!" "EABOD, Gump!" and then bebore they could even say a word, turns to me and politely asks, "Honey, would you walk me out to the car?" ALL the other tables around broke out in cheers and laughs, and joined the roar of the celebrating Tiger Fans. They slapped her hand and raised their bottles to her, like frickin' a boss!I don''t think I could have been prouder. I still regale this tale to my friends. Enjoy the game and GEAUX TIGERS! Hopefully a great memory there for you guys, too! God Bless.
