Did any of you make the trip to College Station. If so what were your thoughts of the gameday environment at Kyle Field? Geaux Tigers!

- Tailgating is pretty good. I'd imagine it would be better for a later start.
- Stadium design is an abomination.
- Fans are nice.

Fans there were very nice, almost in a weird way sometimes. Like they go out of the way to make sure you leave saying "fans there were very nice"

Stadium was quiet, I'm sure the early kickoff didn't help, but I think it's mostly the stadium design.

Gotta say the students getting two whole decks to themselves was cool, I was sitting up high and watching a whole sid of a stadium sway was pretty impressive.

They frick over visitors as far as seats. The band and lower level students were stuck on the end of the stands, had to be the worst seats in the house. And the rest of us were literally on the exact opposite side but up high, at least we could see everything. I think LSU is about to start doing this to away fans as well...

Tailgating was fun, even after the game, I imagine a later game would have been even better.


The bars were cool, nothing exceptional, no covers though, and a few had balconies that were nice.


If Athens is a 10/10 for an away game; I'll give College Station a 7/10

You'll see a new stadium next time you visit.

Completel redoing Kyle from the East/West and South Perspectives. Bowled in. ~100k.

Really wish this would have been a later start. Tailgating was good on Saturday, but Florida game had about 200K on campus due to later start time.

Night games are insanity in the tailgate lots as you would imagine... much like Tiger Stadium when comparing 7 pm to 11 am.

Tailgating was impressive for 11AM game, and they really know how to BBQ

Visitor seating is the worst I've seen

Fans were nice, and they were really into the game, but the stadium was not built to hold in sound.

Overall a great experience, if you ever have the chance to go, you should go.

Only UGA gives visiting fans worse seats than A&M does. I think that once the new south endzone expansion is done, LSU is going to move about 1,000 visiting fans up there.

LSU gives the visitng fans very good seats IMO.

My favorite SEC trip is Vanderbilt.

They do but I think after the expansion they are going to stop.

Vandy was a blast but nothing compares to UGA, Athens is the shite; I would've had like a 1.5 GPA if I went there

Environment was good, but the stadium itself is fricking terrible. From design to practicality, awful. I've never had to wait in a line that long for a bathroom that smelled like it could induce a coma. Very tight quarters as well.

Fans are nice but by the end of the game I thought I was going to slug one of them for saying "whoop!" It was a unique experience. If the stadium improves, I may return, but otherwise I think I'll pass.

Used to be 10x worse before they added the end zone expansion, if that is even possible to comprehend.

Went. Have been many times before. Uncle was drum major in aggie band.

Thoughts: One of the worst campuses out there. You will walk more than you ever have. Aggies are just weird and unfortunate.
