I had a conversation today with a guy about the TS expansion. It's pretty much agreed upon that Tiger Stadium has never been better than November 3, 2012. With the expansion coming up that will put us at 100,000+ is it possible that with an even more filled in bowl shape to Death Valley and an extra 8,000 people that Tiger Stadium will eclipse the atmosphere of that night? It's hard for me to imagine a more loud or electric atmosphere than Nov 3rd.

It's very possible. More people, big games on the way. Great fans will always come and make it as loud as possible. So I'm gonna say yes.

If Saban is still there and the expansion is finished, I think the 2014 Bama game will be the loudest ever.

Yeah, it's possible. But Nov 3rd wasn't the best. Florida '07 was downright epic.

I don't like the idea for expansion. I see a ton of empty sats in the future. We already don't fill Tiger Stadium except for one, maybe two games a year.

Don't be such a Nancy. The season ticket wait list is huge. There will always be a demand for more seats.

Same here. I was living in Florida at the time. Mom and dad were there though.

Said it was INSANE.

I'm not sure it matters if Saban is there or not. That game is gonna be huge regardless.

Don't think so.
Georgia 2003, Florida 2007. Don't go back before 2002 so I can't comment on game before then.

Was Florida 07 that nuts? I have to say I remember watching it on tv and I enjoyed watching that one more than the Title game.

So why is the stadium only full for one game a year? I go to all of the home games, and empty seats are everywhere, including the SEC games. The Bama game was the exception.

One of the most incredible experiences of my life. Been to many tiger games and none come close to touching that one.
