Loudest sustained game I've ever been too....And I've been to all of them since '97


Hands down it's 1997 Florida. Better than '03 Georgia, '07 Florida, '08, '12, '14 Bama and '12 S. Carolina.

But I will say all of those game were loud and any of them isn't a bad choice.

My favorite pre-game moment was in '07 against V. Tech when the guys parachuted in over the South Endzone wall. I thought it was deafening when the first guy came in with the V. Tech flag in support of the victims of the campus massacre...but then the US flag....and then finally the LSU flag. The place was vibrating!!!

This is a great one. It was pitch black that night with the lights of Tiger Stadium shining down, and I remember looking up into the light rain that was falling to see the flags+parachutes coming down as the stadium erupted.

Don't forget that the beginning of that game was deafening too though! We held VT to 3 and out on the first few possessions with a big sack and big Steltz INT sprinkled in, and Flynn was absolutely crushing their vaunted defense. It was a perfect storm for crowd noise. Easy to forget because it turned into a party in the stands by mid-way through the 2nd quarter.
