If it ain't 100 degrees, it ain't hot in CS.

Go be a faggie then. Went last year when they whooped us the 2nd half. Was nice but wouldn’t touch the top 10 environments I have seen in DV the last 22 years.

Also, much better than Bryant-Denny even if cultish.

Interesting. Went to the game in college Station in 2022 and thought it felt very corporate and NFL like. The music is the thing that stuck out the most actually for me.

Their fans are insufferable to be around.

Sounds like a great reason to stay out of death valley, and continuing to go there. You won't be missed!

Tiger stadium is a shadow of its not so distant self. Our image is existing on past reputation.


A ranked football team with a lot to play for and a highly ranked opponent changes that in an instant. The Ole Miss game last year is proof. One of the best atmospheres I’ve ever seen. That’ll happen again soon enough.

I bet I have been to more A&M home games than any other LSU grad, and I was at LSU and attended every home game when LSU was really good.

A&M is starting to catch up with LSU on tailgating in terms of amenities. A&M had terrible tailgating when I was growing up until the last 5-6 years. They have made it really convenient and nice. Kyle Field is a lot nicer than Tiger Stadium. It's a lot cleaner and there is less trash around the stadium. LSU frankly can't afford to keep up with the suites at Kyle Field. Kyle Field is consistently packed. I've never seen it only 80-85% full, but have seen games where it wasn't 99%. Also, few fans leave during the game, no matter what the score is. Also, the fans don't shout obscenities like STTDB. I've been wanting to take my young kids to an LSU game (we have season tickets), but until that goes away, I am not going to take them. My parents have suite tickets at A&M, so it's better to take them there.

I will say that like Tiger Stadium, Kyle Field seemed louder when I was younger. With the days of piped in music upon us, it has ruined the atmosphere. The A&M band is unique, and I enjoy their performance, but LSU's band is more consistently energetic, and I think more fun. For a huge consequential game, Saturday night in Tiger Stadium is tough to beat in terms of energy and excitement. However, if it's not a huge consequential night game, Kyle Field is a better experience.

This is not a political board, but since you went there


People always say they chose love when they voted for her. Yet you voted to sexually mutilate children. You voted to support killing children in forever wars for profit and power. You voted to mass poison a generation of kids in a health crisis, & you voted to traffic children at the border just for a votes while supporting drag shows for kids and late term abortion. Nothing in that shows love.

That game was ripe for a 28 pt comeback. A@M has a very good team, might be the best, against a poor Carolina team at College Station. When I saw the half time score, I predicted A@M would come back to win.

Texas A&M graduates 4x the people LSU does and the alumni don't have to move hundreds of miles away to find a good job.

The demand for Aggie tickets is just soo much higher than LSU

TLDR..... but truthfully LSU.can be a 2 loss team playing an SEC and the seats are 3/4 full. But a shite program like OK, uscE, Moo State, etc.... will have a packed house just there to support their team.

When being 10-0 is your national championship.

I’ve been to a game there. It’s cool, but was weird that no one was drunk. It’s like a very sanitized, choreographed experience. Tiger Stadium is grimy and wild, but that’s what we like about it. It has character. It’s like Mardi Gras and Kyle Field is like an Imagine Dragons concert.

Didn’t read one word of this drivel. Go join the cult of A&M and suck on a drain pipe while you’re at it.

Also, big difference: the piped in music. 1st, the speaker is not nearly as loud as LSU's.

Clearly have never sat in the away section. Those Aggie speakers are freaking LOUD

Did the invocation reference God at Texas A&M or did they leave it all open ended like in TS?

Do you really think that the 2019 unranked Aggie game vs unranked South Carolina was better than the atmosphere in Tiger Stadium that year?

That' a special kinda stupid.


This. How about comparing your experience at A&M to a night game during the 2019 season where we were undefeated?

That would be a better analogy.
