I was at that game in the upper deck with my BIL (RIP). Incredible game and one of my favorite to attend in Tiger Stadium.

Def one of the 5 best LSU games I ever attended. The fog crawling over the side of the stadium in the second half was epic. And yes, I threw quite a few oranges...

Was there. West side box seats. We had to go to the tunnel to get away from the citrus.

You could barely see the players on the field as the 2nd half progressed. Super thick fog, similar to the shoe game.

I was there in ROTC

Also getting hit by those oranges hurt like hell

I was there. The fog was incredible. That 82 team could have been great, the losses were inexplicable. We should have beat Nebraska in the Orange Bowl too.

First game date for my now wife (no pics) and I. I was a 1st year law student. One of my favorite games.

Thank you for showing the game. It's actually my first chance to ever see the game. I was in the Navy back then, stationed in California, and was on duty the night of the game. I remember the next morning at Quarters the Department head saying how happy I must be and that was my first news of the result. So thanks.

Was there in the north end zone with my wife. After graduating I didn’t have many opportunities to see games but was fortunate enough to see this one and the ‘79 USC game.

My drunk friends thought they said to bring fruit, so we were the idiots in the North end zone, throwing apples. It was awesome to see those chairback cushions flying out of the upper deck like frisbees through the fog. What a game... It smelled like oranges when you walked past the stadium for about a week

My Sophmore year. I had really good seats in the student section

In the student section that night. Electric, second only to me behind ‘79 USC.

I was in the student section for that game. I didnt go to LSU but I bought a fake student ID at a bar on Highland for $20 and got into every game for two yrs!

My first LSU game. I was hooked. What an awesome game.
