TS is not the only one with No shows and early departures. Bama does too

Part of the deal to go to the Auburn game last week, I had to endure pain and torture of going with wife who is a bama fan to the Bama ole miss game last night.

For Starters it was packed in the lower bowls which is where we sat. They had several pockets of empty seats in the upppers. Also the student section emptied after halftime. Also thousands started leaving when the score was 27-14 with 12 minutes to go. That said, people need to stop ripping LSU fans as the only one with this issue. Bama has the same issues. I think sometimes success breeds apathy.

You think the game starting at 8:30 might have had anything to do with that?

We have games that start late. It was a sat night certainly not a school night.

I think Bama fans being human has the most to do with that, just like LSU fans. Human. Less than perfect. Go figure.

Bama's crowd/stadium is not near as loud as our is . . . Or was. Maybe the roles are reversing.

I saw the empty seats on tv. I wondered if it was raining there too or just the inferior opponent.

It wasn't last night. I belive it got as high as 107 decibels. 115 is their record. Their sound system is unbelievable. Ours needs serious upgrades.

That would be nice! Still, idk, I'm used.to their preSaban crowds. Their fans are churchmice compared.to ours and were even more fair weather natured when the team tanks.

If people spent less time worrying about fans leaving early and more time criticizing why one of the most talented teams in the country continues to put a pile of shite out on the field on offense maybe changes would happen and people would quit leaving the game early as a result.
