In Tiger Stadium on Saturday, it was super hot (probably >95 inside), bright sun and no breeze. Cudos to the fans on the east side.

I love how on TV they showed that the visiting team's sideline was 10 degrees hotter than LSU's by the second half.

I’ve been sitting in 243 since the 90s and this was the hottest game since we played the Aggies with a noon kickoff. My niece had to resuscitate a young woman whose blood pressure went nuts. Vomit in rest rooms and on the ramps. I work a lot out in the heat and most people today aren’t accustomed to those conditions for any extended period of time. I had to laugh at Mascona tweeting about the east side when he has no idea what it’s like to sit on 100 plus degree concrete in bright sunshine for 3.5 hours. If you forced a dog to do that you would be arrested and jailed. Those conditions were much more dangerous than the lightning bolt 6 miles away.

Section 411 my girlfriend who never goes to games unless we’re in my folks club seats sat thru the whole game. A lot of respect was earned that day.

It was brutal. I felt really bad for the under 8yr olds they were miserable and so was mommy and daddy.

Section 300.
North East corner.
I could tell it was brutally hot, but was so hammered I just did the care.

It felt like it was 110 in the stadium in direct sunlight with no breeze.

It was brutal, but the players did just enough to keep us in it, and I'm glad they did because it was a good one.

Thanks for the shout out, but the trophy goes to my wife, she sat with me the entire game in section 412. NO PICS

I was watching the game, she was watching the shade line creep ever so slowly toward us.

Great Game! Great Atmosphere!

It was hot, but not as uncomfortable as the Auburn game in 2015. Plus, we got a little bit of shade at the very end.

'Preciate it. Halfway, at least. We left at halftime, but the GF looked about to fall out with a heat stroke.

But she cried later before we even won because she was sad she made us leave. She needed a nap lol. We still have the sunburns to show for it either way.
