Making my first road game to UF. Does anybody know which sections are the visitors?

Are any of the visitor section better than others?






Thanks

i have sat in 320, 321, 36, and 38. Tickets through LSU each time. All are/were visitor sections. Not going this year.

I know I went as a student and they had LSU students and UF students seperated by and aisle. What could possibly go wrong?

Students get decent seats at Florida.

I'll likely never go back to that place. I went and I wanted to go at least once, but it's not one of my favorite venues.

The Sunshine seats as far as they can possibly put you from the field. Terrible away tickets and terrible stadium in terms of view.

Make sure you don't walk around with an open container.

I've had LSU tickets on the 2nd row of the 30 yard line, and also some in BFE (very comparable to where the visitors will now sit in Tiger Stadium.

They do tend to spread some away fans throughout the stadium to keep the noise level down.

You'll be facing the sun for a 2:30 game...bring sunscreen and hydrate.

I plan on making it into the stadium but that doesn't always happen, I'll be tailgating that day for sure though

Don't listen to these Rantards. I'm a Tiger fan who goes with a Gator buddy to The Swamp once a year. The Swamp is a great stadium experience. And tailgate all you want, you'll be fine. Just don't act like an idiot.

True, Gainesville isn't the best town in the world and you'll see a lot of tacky Florida people and plenty of jorts, but you'll get that anywhere you go. Just enjoy the game day experience and ignore the rest.

And the visitors' seats are no worse than any other SEC stadium. Now it IS a long drive, so factor that in.

Rantards just like to complain.

Nothing could be any more false. The angles of view at BHGS@FF are far and away the worst in the SEC. The sunshine seats are atrocious to the point where you can't see what happens in the endzone directly in front of you. The cavernous space created by the crazy walls in the lower bowl put you at an awkward viewing angle and far from the field. It really sucks.

I went to UF v. LSU in 2006 as a student. The whole weekend was a disaster and I'll probably never go back. Car died in the hotel parking lot Saturday morning so we didn't get to campus until an hour or two before kickoff. I had a lot of making up to do.

So much so that I pissed off enough UF fans to the point of trying to tip over the porta-potty I was in.

We then got to our student seats. Great seats right behind our boys but we were surrounded. Sea of orange and blue everywhere. Florida fans on either side of us and above us. I'd been to Neyland, Bryant-Denny, Vaught-Hemmingway and Sanford but this was the loudest most dreadful stadium I'd ever been. I had to knock a Florida fan out of our seats. He may or may not have been attempting to give himself a diabetic shot. I never saw it I swear.

We looked good that 1st quarter but that's all I got to see inside the stadium. As soon as all hell broke loose, I was ticketed for an open container on the way to the pisser and then "escorted" out of the stadium. I had to watch the rest of the game at a Florida fan's RV.

Sit in their student section, they are struggling to sell tickets and LSU can pack that house
