re: LSU/FL - my first visit to Tiger Stadium

Just understand this....LSU football games and the tailgating is like no other experience. I know the Swamp can be loud and the Gators are a great team...but that is all you have there in Gainesville that can compare to what you are going to experience. The people that will be on campus, there was close to 190,000 people for the game in 2007, the amount of tailgating, the food, the drinking, the team and Tiger Band coming down Victory Hill, pregame in Death Valley, and Death Valley at night is like nowhere else in the country. The noise factor in Tiger Stadium for this game will be something that you will never see anywhere else. The Student section, and the rest of the stadium cheer throughout the game with the Golden Band from Tigerland...LOUD! Hell, even pay attention when the Tiger Band plays pregame, the National Anthem and the Alma Mater. They are actually sung loud in Tiger Stadium.....whereas in most, even Florida....people just stand there with their hats off. Just have thick skin, when you hear "Tiger Bait" just smile, talk to the tailgaters and you will be fed and offered drinks. If you do this enough from early Saturday Morning until gametime, you will have eaten more food and be shitfaced by the time you get to the stadium. This is no joke...and I hope that when it's over, that you will go back to Gainesville and tell people what a wonderful time you had.

Good Luck
Great Game
No Injuries
