Seeing the amount of people faceplant as they rush to get in line for student tickets at the gate was hilarious. I ended up getting front row but I probably could have sat a few more rows up.

If we hadn't backed into that, Saban would be here and we would be working on about NC #10.

I could not watch it. I was at Madrid and the time difference made it like 2 a.m. kick off time. I remember first thing when I woke up was to rush to a computer to log in to USA Today. What a pleasant surprise it was.

I was there! Bought tickets from a guy at the W Hotel on Saturday night for $675.00 each.

First row in the terrace in the curve. Got in real early and went to my great seat. Was sitting there about 5 minutes when an Ohio State couple 2-rows behind me ask me to take their picture. That is when i realized that they were on row-4 and row 1 did not exist. Holy chit, I went looking for an usher. New score boards installed in the 4 corners were slightly to tall to see over if you were sitting on the 1st row, but the Dome was still selling those seats.
13 X 4=78 people got screwed by the Dome!
After 90 minutes and the game started we got seats {folding metal chairs} in the wheelchair section on the ramp behind the LSU bench at the goal line. So we could only see the game when it was on our end of the field. Had to watch the overhead monitor most of the time. When Chevis intercepted the pass and ran behind the players on the bench I looked up at the monitor and thought he was running the wrong way!
The great thing at the end was we got to HIGH-5 a lot of the LSU players as they headed to the locker room.
The worst thing was, I was parked across the street from WDSU TV station. That was a lonely walk at 12:30 in the morning by myself!

I was there. $1100 for a ticket on the 6th row of the LSU endzone. Worth every damn penny.

Leslie Ann Miles had a horseshoe up his arse back in those days. Every chance he took paid off back then…whether he realized he was actually taking a chance or not.

Was there. When the ball went sailing past Flynn I thought we are screwed!
Alas we were not!

I was so happy after that game. Got to go to the one Saban win vs Oklahoma, best experience of my life with some fellow Tiger friends.

What a great night. I wasn’t able to get students tickets but was partying all day with my buddy and his family on bourbon. When they left to to the dome my buddies dad told me to hop in the cab, I was so confused. We get to the dome and he handed me 600 bucks and said go find a ticket. I was so pumped, bought a ticket from an lsu guy and said next to him. He bought my beers all night. It was amazing.

My buddies dad passed away last month and I loved telling that story to everyone after the funeral. A lot of them forgot that story so it was great to be able to tell a story of what kind of man he was and what he did for others.
