This is the one I was at - had to leave a halftime + thought it was gonna be a blowout win.

Still my most agonizing game in memory.

We were there for the App State game too. Brutally hot morning game pre-Gustov if I remember correctly. People were passing out in the stadium and it was the first time I saw LSU giving away cold bottled water to everyone. I remember Dr. Cangelosi having to help one lady who passed out right in front of us. Hottest game day I've been to.

This one. We were in section 306 and it was miserable. Heat index was 119 that game.

I do not remember the year but we played South Carolina (Holtz was coaching) and it was at night and it was so hot and humid I almost had to leave and the heat doesn't bother me that much.

I was at both the ‘04 and ‘05 games you mentioned, not sure how I made it out given how much we drank beforehand.

The South Carolina game that got moved to a home game. They only sold seats in the lower bowl, but we got stuck on the east side

I've been in the same seats for 30 years on the East side. This was the hottest game I've been to. It had to be 115F in the stands on the East.


2015 Auburn comes very close, but this just felt hotter.

And kickoff was at 11am. I was baking by 1.

10AM iirc. They moved it up because of Gustav.

Can confirm. Easily the hottest night game I've ever been to. It felt just as hot as this past weekend.

It was like someone microwaved a damp blanket it and threw it over my head.

I have to vote for the 2004 Oregon State season opener. It was *hot*. Then it *poured*. Then it was *hot* AND *steamy*. Ugh.


That game was miserable.

Don’t remember date, but it was noon time in Tiger Stadium, LSU vs Texas A & M. We all looked we peed in our pants. Labor Day weekend.

That was the 92 A&M game. It was absolutely miserable.
