I was there. The Iron Bowl, also at Legion Field, the year before was actually worse.

This is the answer - was in marching band and Frank Wickes told us not to stop playing and marching during halftime unless we heard a freight train, then just run like hell!

I was there. The Tiger band performed at halftime, but the Bama band chickened out. It was the last time LSU played against the Bear.

I was there too, in the upper decks, measerable but we won.

Yeah, I was a student at LSU and was at that game. I remember the tornado possibilities. Pulled out a win in not so good conditions.

It all blew over right after halftime, then it turned cold. I remember seeing that Tornado symbol on the scoreboard during halftime.

Yep. I was there. Water above my ankles rolling down the stands. Umbrellas being sucked out of peoples hands flying around and then out the top of the stadium.
