'10 Bama game ...scored a 40 yard line seat 10 rows behind Tiger bench on gameday. Jordan Jefferson threw a strike to Reuben Randle across the middle running to my direction. He outran Bama safety to end zone. Sounded like the horsetack as could hear the feet hitting the turf with Randle maintaining a two yard lead to the endzone. Priceless moment!

I have only visited once, but it was a pretty special experience. It was for the LSU vs UF game in 2015. During my trip to the U.S I met a couple champion blokes wearing LSU shirts at a bar in Nashville. After a few fireballs and callin baton rouge requests they invited my mates and I to their tailgate for the florida game we were attending.

On game day, we cracked open our first beers at 7am and shortly after headed down to chimes for a dozen more beers and my first taste of gator meat. At around 12pm we headed down to campus and had a look around before heading over to the tailgate we were invited too. On arrival we were greeted with gumbo, an iced slide of tequila and unlimited beers. We met some awesome people at the tailgate including Jarrett lee and another ex QB who also coached brandon harris and took us to meet some of the players as the team walked down victory hill.

After the tailgate, we headed on into the stadium. The stadium was electric being a top 5 matchup and as the sun found its home in the western sky, It was saturday night in death valley. With a half time lead and the crowd pumping we decided to head over to the student section and found 3 empty perfect seats. With the game tied in the 4th, the mad hatter pulled one of his best and dominigue ran in a fake fg for the win.

We headed down to bogeys after the game where we had beers with a few players from the 2011 team which was an awesome way to finish off the day .

Sorry for the novel, but that was an experience I will never forget.
