re: Making plans for Mississippi State. Check in

Mississippi state undergrad and LSU grad school alum here. I think you will find MSU fans in Starkville very similar to LSU fans in terms of family atmosphere and a very inviting fan base. Definitely set up a tailgate tent on Friday afternoon near or in the junction if you want a spot near the action. If you were looking for more room to spread out, but your tents behind Dorman. Eat in the Cotton District at Bin 612 or Staggerin's. City Bagel/Starkville Cafe for breakfast Saturday or Sunday morning. Hotels or tricky at this point. Most of the hotels are a two night minimum and cost a good bit. Check out west point if all else fails. It is a little closer than Columbus. Also, Saturday night is bulldog Bash in the cotton district. It is a huge outdoor free concert that is crowded, but lots of fun. Bring an ice chest full of beer and you will have a blast and have something to stand on. Let me know if you have any questions. I always get excited about this game for obvious reasons. Hail State and Geaux Tigers!
