re: The Bama game is why I love watching LSU football games by myself or with my dad and son

pretty f'ing glorious victory and her "gumbo" was great

Me too. I love watching LSU by myself. Hate all the talking and distractions when watching with a group.

I will admit that I really prefer to watch the games with my closest family or small group of LSU fans.

HOWEVER, there is a big benefit to watching with other people. I'm more relaxed and much less likely to be a baby about it if they lose.

Yeah I do not like watching games with many only with a very select few.

I am very similar. My wife wanted to have people over for the Auburn game. At first I was like that sounds great. But then when it hit me that it was Auburn on the road I knew where it would come to. Love our friends that were there but half way through the first half watching Daniels get sacked a few choice words were said loudly at the tv.

I moved to the outside tv with another guy and finished the game there.

Son was asleep and wife usually watches the games in the living room with me. This time for some reason she was doing other things and it irritated the hell out of me when she would pass through the living room.

At other times I'll have my Dad over and unfortunately it's getting harder and harder to watch with him because he wants to analyze every play. Have to accept it though because won't have him forever.

I agree with what everyone one said...it is hard to watch with my wife because if the other team gets loose she screams git him git him ... she did the same thing at high school games when my kids were playing...we usually did not sit together because git him git him was very distracting

I’m like this too but it’s with women. Most just don’t get it and I’d rather not watch big games with them. 2013 uga game was what did it for me. Game is back and forth coming down to the last possession and we were watching at a house party in college and all we heard the 2nd half were the women “ugghhhh when is this going to be over, when are we going to the bar???” Never again

When my mom taught at LSU at the time, she thought it was a good idea to throw a party at the house and invite her students for the 2009 Ole Miss game lol. My dad and I were pissed because we weren’t going to be able to watch the game like we usually do. I was not happy with how the game was going but I was ok. When we lost the way we did with Les Miles telling Jordan Jefferson to spike it with one second on the clock, my dad and I lost our shite in front of everybody lol. My mom was not happy with us but that’s her fault for bringing strangers into our home.

I usually like to watch the games by myself, but for this game we went to my daughter's house because it was my youngest grandson’s 17th birthday. Everyone was watching so intently that it was fine. When we scored in OT everyone roared. As we lined up for the 2pt conversion, my birthday boy started to leave the room. He said that he was too nervous. I talked him into staying, and we all exploded with joy. I told him now he has a memory for life. That you have to face life head on.....blah, blah, blah.

As the celebration starts to settle into warm afterglow, my wife, who is not a knowledgeable football fan, said, “why didn’t Alabama put someone over there?”
