They should have known better than to invite you. If they're from Bama they ought to know this is more than a football game. For those four hours one day a year we are enemies, not friends.

I watch every Bama/LSU game with Bama fans. Most I know very well, but always some I don't.
It's never as fun as if I watched it alone, regardless of outcome. If we lose, they'll either be direct assholes or go into "bless your heart" mode where they make a concerted effort to let you know how ho hum the result is because it was expected.*
If we win, you'll have to excuse yourself to show any level of excitement. They take it very hard and will hold that grudge until the next Bama win and beyond.
I married into it, so I don't have much of a choice (FWIW, my wife is a distinct exception since she's not as into it as the normal Bama fan). You have a choice. I'd bail.
*This is not across the board, of course. Some will just be genuinely happy with the win and be very graceful. These are the ones I typically stick with after a loss. If you end up doing this, find this person/these people in the place.

Probably my biggest pet peave from opposing fans in sports. I got so much of it the week BEFORE the Auburn game while I was in Auburn for one of their games. I drove the 5 hours back to Louisiana fuming thinking, we have to beat these fricks, and thank god the next week we did. There is nothing worse than the fake pity some of these schools will throw down at you.

Did this twice with an older couple who are the nicest people in the world. Split the series and it still wasn't fun even when we won.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.

Why watch the game with Bama homers? Masochist?
Posted on 11/2/17 at 3:18 pm to ChunkyLover54
My wife is a Bama grad and we live across the bay from Mobile. I watch the game with all my Gump neighbors when we don’t attend the games ourselves. I’ve never had any problems other than some back and forth shite talking but nothing serious. Hell I’m the one usually talking the most trash. What I do is invite my Auburn friends because they root for LSU like they have been lifelong LSU fans. Get you some Auburn fans over there cheering against Alabama and then watch them fight out in the front yard. Man that fanbase hates each other. Works the same way when we play Auburn. Bama fans pull for LSU when we play Auburn.

Not a bad idea. LOL!
Posted on 11/2/17 at 3:48 pm to ChunkyLover54
No way I’d watch that game with people I don’t know.

I agree. nothing good can come out of this.

I also suspect they are just inviting us to see our reaction
why do you suspect this? it probably doesn't matter but you already tip your hand about how this is such a terrible idea. I love LSU and LSU football and I hate bama football and nick saban. no one needs to around me when we play.

I’d rather be in a prison cell with several hardened prisoners over watching an LSU game with a fricking gump.

Especially if they were a lot of bama gear a lot of the time. These kind of people have self esteem issues.

Thanks for advice.Wife officially declined and we hung LSU flag tonight. At least we keep our dignity. I’m sure the the psycho who jumped on OU fans was also “pleasant” in carpool.

They're not good people, just don't. Every other fan base has tolerable people. Gumps are a disease.

That’s what we concluded

If they get too rowdy, just beat everybody up. You won't have to worry about being invited ever again.
