Yeah I took it to mean how jacked everyone is getting. It's pretty much all I've thought about this week. The energy will be nuts.

We need to defend our house on Saturday night. Everyone needs to bring the noise and play a huge role in this game.

It's going to take all 100,000 of us.

I can attest to that as I was a student there in the 80's. Crown Royal flowed like water...

I'm not an old timer. I hadn't ever stepped foot in Death Valley until I was a freshmen in 2003. I have nothing to compare to before then. That said, I was blown away by the atmosphere in TS that year, and I think TS can still get that loud if we want to. If the team is good going in to the game and it's a night game against an SEC opponent, then nothing can compare to that atmosphere. The atmosphere this weekend is going to be crazy, despite what the "back in my days" crowd thinks. Wish I could be there.

Hey Tiger Fans, guess what? Tiger Stadium is what we make it and this Saturday we have the opportunity to make it one of those exceptional nights in Tiger Stadium. This is our National Championship year, this our Heisman year, this is it folks, pack your bags and find your way to Baton Rouge and bring your energy and enthusiasm!!!

I am doing my part, I have my tickets and am driving all day from Texas to find my way to the campus for the morning Game Day and I will be there all day and all night bringing the Big Cheese, lets do this!

My eyes were vibrating in the south endzone first two defensive series vs bama last year. First time I can remember that and been going to games since 98.

Even last year vs Bama...the first quarter was as loud as I can remember the stadium. TS was rocking.

I was at 2007 UF and 2012 Bama as well. When you can feel the hair on your arms vibrating, you know it is as intense of a sporting environment on Planet Earth.

That "video" looked more like a slide show to me.

The Valley will shake on Saturday night though!

This. I was in the drumline and that pause and the crescendo of volume and intensity before the intro countoff when it was a big game with a packed house would give you chills.

This was great, but it made me sad. They talked about how the students were the most spirited and relentless. This is not the case anymore. Sad because Death Valley is not what it used to be.

I think it was the 2003 UGA game maybe. Stafford got hurt and had to come out, and UGA was pinned back into the south endzone. DJ Shockley had to come in and the stadium made him shite in his pants (not literally). He was in shock and couldn't do a damn thing. The stadium was LOUD!!!

This may sound dumb but everytime (all near 100 times) ive come out from under that concourse and see Tiger Stadium I feel

Awe
Excitement
Pride


but the one people need to really hold onto is RESPONSIBILITY. Without the fans carrying the water its just a big building. It aint loud by itself.

It doesn't at all.

Everytime I get out and see the field and the stands around me, I get chills and become giddy like a kid. It's a special place.
