LSU @ Kentucky basketball.

Considering going to LSU@Kentucky in January. Never been to Rupp. Their fans at Kroger were big douchebags. I imagine they are worse for basketball. Seeing if anyone has any experience being there for basketball as an LSU fan.

Reminded me of going to regular season SEC baseball games while Mainieri was here.

Haven’t been to Rupp but being around Cincy, you run into a ton of UK fans.
They’re about like most fan bases. You have some good and bad.
Wouldn’t let them discourage you from going and having a good time.

Short answer. Very much yes. Probably the worst.

I’ve been to a few wearing purple and gold. They didn’t say anything except congrats on the W one time.
LSU won with Tremont Waters.
UK basketball game attendees are old elites. They don’t gaf about anyone but themselves.

I was raised in Kentucky, but thanks to Dad was always an LSU fan, and now an LSU alumnus. Kentucky basketball fans always seemed like assholes to me when I was growing up, but I'm sure a lot of it was my own belligerence with them. Back in the 1980s Coach Brown held his own against Joe B Hall and the Wildcats and we beat them as often as not.
The last time I attended an LSU-Kentucky game at Rupp Arena was January 1987 when we beat them by 35 points on their own floor. I still feel good about that scar LSU left across the face of that magical hall of basketball.
About twenty years ago, I was lucky enough to come across tickets for the SEC basketball tournament in Atlanta. Kentucky had been knocked out early, but their fans that had stayed were, by and large, pulling for LSU for the remainder of the tournament and seemed genuinely disappointed that LSU didn't win it.
Sure, you'll have some Kentucky fans that are 100% arse-hats, but you'll find most of them to be pretty good folks with a very fine understanding of everything there is related to the game of basketball. They are experts at it, and they recognize exellence even in their opponents. (That is, with the excpetion of Duke, who they rightfully hate with every fiber of their being.)
Definitely make the time to go. Rupp Arena is the basketball version of Death Valley. Win or lose, you'll enjoy the experience.

Kentucky bb games at rupp are pretty tame honestly. They're usually a week night at 7 or 9 pm so it's not like people are drinking all day like football.
What another poster said about ticket holder in the lower arena being elitist old folks is true. I've attended several games there in LSU gear and nobody said anything to me. You might get a couple jabs about wade and pro players at worst.
