I was at 2003 Georgia, 2005 Auburn, 2007 Florida and the 2008 Bama. The 2005 Auburn and 2008 Bama games were on a whole different level. My ears were in pain after both of those games.


That said, all 4 games are great memories of Tiger Stadium at it's best.

When it came down to that last play for the game, AU called a timeout, so everything just built to a crazy crescendo. When Twillie intercepted that ball, it was amazing. That was the loudest moment for me personally in Tiger Stadium.

Florida 09 was nuts. Tebow's first drive started in our endozne and he couldn't do jack.

Arky OT in 2009 was pretty loud too. When Tejada shanked it, drinks flew.

Pregame v. UF in 2009 was unbelievably loud.


That was the loudest pre-game/opening kickoff I have ever seen. It was deafening. Then after LSU's offense scored 3 points in the game, it wasn't so loud.

I was on the field for Rice v LSU with Jamie Howard at QB. That game was loud as frick on the field. Howard threw for multiple TDs. Rice had an undersized MLB that had about 30 tackles that game, Larry Izzo.

I knew it would be this game that was mentioned. Lots of emotion that season. Took a friend to that game and it is still the only gamee she has seen in Tiger Stadium. Not a bad one to see. I also went to Auburn the next year and still get pissed thinking about it

Wow, I don't remember that game at all. Must have had too many wine coolers that day.

Geez Jamarcus could sling it.

Skyler Green was so good.

Let's make Nov.3 the loudest ever. Stay loud the entire game, before the game, after the game. Come in early and stay late. Bring a bottle of aspirin.

I've been at all of the landmark TS games over the last twenty years and I genuinely believe that 1997 Florida surpasses anything from the 2000's in terms of sheer noise and chaos. It was unexpected, it was against the number one team in the country, it came after a long period of frustration for the program, it was at night, and it was played before economic factors began to alter the composition of the stadium. It was the perfect storm of stadium noise. When Herb Tyler pranced into the endzone, I swear I felt the soundwaves slightly compress my skull.

I cannot imagine any venue in the global realm of sport being louder than that for any occassion.

Been at most every game since 70's except USC I still say the loudest was pre kick off of the Ohio State game 1983ish ? When Earl Bruce refused to bring the Buckeyes on the field first


that game was Fall of 1987, and was at least the loudest day game I've ever been to. Refs called timeout several times because OSU QB couldn't hear.

We've had a lot of games where the "only reason we won is because the other kicker MIRACULOUSLY missed 3-5 field goals..."
Why don't people see that it is not coincidence that so many field goals are missed in tiger stadium. If you miss one early on, it might be a long day for the opposing kicker.

No doubt about the BBMG. Wasnt the final 12-6 or something weird. Seems like Auburn's QB got sacked in endzone for a safety and was complaining that he heard a whistle stop the play. Probably a Tiger fan.

The funny part is that it was deathly quite when the ball hit the uprights.

Still remember this vividly. Ball looked like it was in slow motion once it was in the air.

Another loud moment for me that gets passed over is South Carolina in '02. On 3 consecutive plays in the North Endzone: Shyrone Carey TD run, Troy Williamson from USCe annihilated on the kick return, Demetrius Hookfin pick-6. I don't have appropriate words to describe the noise when that happened.

I would add Bama vs LSU in 2008 after Bama missed the FG before going to OT. I wasn't there, but those that went said it was loud as shite.

An often overlooked moment lost in the mists of Tiger lore. The stadium went berserk.

I listened to '79 USC on the radio. The crowd noise was unbelievable.
