We played AT Auburn in 2016 but it was pretty hot for the 2017 Auburn game

App State 2008 followed by Auburn 2015 were the hottest I’ve been to.

I recall Auburn 2017 being hot too, but I think that’s only because it was the first time my fiancée had been to an LSU game (or to Louisiana in general). She was dying from the heat just walking from the hayfield to Tiger Stadium. She saw a sno ball cart, asked me to get her one, and when they asked what flavor she wanted she said “none.”

It was a $5 cup of ice.

ETA: just remembered that I sat in the East uppers for Auburn 2015, and didn’t reapply enough sunscreen. My face was redder than the devils dick. Went to go get wings after the game and got this receipt

Auburn 2015. 2:30 in the afternoon in late September. When I walked into the stadium, through the student gate, my phone said it was 102 degrees outside, and something like 95% humidity. Everyone going into the student section was given a free bottle of water on their way into the stadium. Damn near every bottle was empty by midway through the first quarter.

Edit: 2015, not 2016. The game fournette ran all over them.

I remember a hot as hell game a couple of years ago. LSU announced that water would be half price. What they forgot to mention was the bottle they sold was half the size of a normal bottle.

App St 2008 was probably the worst I remember. The humidity was unreal at 10am. But pretty much any day game in Aug/Sept is brutal.

2015 Auburn was a scorcher. 92 at kick off but the heat index was around 98-100 and the bleachers were something equivalent to the sun.

I think this is my pick. It was crazy hot. One year when My brother was at LSU my parents bought season tickets in the upper. I think it was a South Carolina game that was just miserably hot. Some USC lady was so drunk she passed out with a tit out and it got very sunburned. Young me was all about braving the elements that day

Just to be different than 08 App State, I will say Miss St in either 02 or 03. I don't remember the year. I remember it being the 11am jefferson pilot game, and LSU made it the PJ game. All the students wear wearing their PJs at the beginning, but by the end legs were cut off or ripped off.

I went to App St game and Tennessee game after hurricane. The Tennessee game tops the cake even at night. The humidity and heat was literally unbearable people were soaking wet from sweat as if it had rained.

Nostradamus thx for correcting me. Never forget Davis taking off. I knew we were back. Then reality set in. But that was the hottest I’ve ever been in my life.

I was at the 1987 OSU game and the 1992 tamu game. No comparison. The 1992 game was MUCH hotter. People were passing out in the stands all day.
