Arky 2007. It was so bad I really don't want to get into the details.

1b - Miami '88 was pretty terrible, but I was young so the weather was worse than the game for me.

1a - Ole Miss Clock Management Debacle. I was standing in the middle of a sea of Ole Piss fans (I went with a friend who is an Ole Miss Alum and got the tickets). When LSU started driving at the end of the game a drunk girl behind me said "how many points do they get if they kick a field goal?" I turned around and said "enough to win!" Well, then Les goes on to make history with the worst clock management in the history of football and I have to listen to countless "Hotty Toddy" chants

I got heckled relentlessly as I visited with friends and co-workers after the game. I couldn't wait to get out of that shite-hole!

This wasn't mine but my neighbor had a pretty shitty gameday on 1/9. Blew $3500 for great seats for he and his wife, came home after the game to find his house broken into, and then later that night found out his mom died. ouch

I was in house for the UAB loss....the whole game I kept telling my brother "we cant lose this game...can we?"

To make it worse...it was the 1st time I had EVER bet on a football game and we lost the game and I lost my one and only bet!!

Nothing exciting like an assault to report, but I do remember the LSU loss to Miami of Ohio to be an awful experience.

it was the last game - the BCS game in the Dome.
Just getting into the Dome from the outside corridors was a 90 min nightmare and then once inside, things just got worse

LSU football game was UT 05. Monday night , hot/humid as a southeast Asia jungle

When this game is mentioned this always comes up.

A buddy of mine was an ATC at the time for LSU football. He said no one needed IV's the previous week when we were in Tempe, AZ for the Arizona State game. The Monday night UT game they ran out of IV's so many people dehydrated. I'm sure the extracurricular activities with Rita and Katrina did not help either we all that going on that weekend.

Cotton Bowl after last season. During the coin toss a drunk behind me fell over the seats directly into my wife's neck. She had to be taken from the stands on a stretcher and transported to Texas Healh - Arlington for MRIs and X Rays. Luckily it was just really bad whiplash, but to have such a great day tailgating, then this happen right before the game was just awful.

Agree. Was there to watch the mud bowl and see Penn State win. Awful trip, crowd was into the game the first few minutes and after that it was no fun. Maybe partly because I was running on 3 hours of sleep and my breakfast was 60 oz. of Bud Light.

I know this is what a lot of people are thinking, but 1/9. It was my entire Christmas present to go to the game. The entire ride home I kept thinking I just paid to watch that happen.

I'd been to every game. To end it like that was truly heartbreaking.

Describe your worst LSU Football Gameday Experience

Any game during the Curley Hallman era. Especially when Tiger Stadium was half full at kickoff, and the scene at the bottom of the hill waiting for the band looked like a ghost town. The whole atmosphere was a joke back then.

And the team was even more of a joke. I remember it being a big deal that we beat a mediocre Ole Miss team.

The experience and it's totally my fault was when I decided to leave the auburn game a few minutes early and seeing the last second TD catch (right in front of where I was sitting) from the TVs in the parking lot.

Other than that, I can't say that I've ever had a bad experience at LSU on gameday.
