Weirdest game you ever seen in Tiger Stadium?

A spinoff of papasmurf’s thread. What’s the weirdest game you seen at Tiger stadium? Games that for whatever reason stick out as a unique and odd experience in hindsight.
For me there’s two:
Oregon State 2004
Season opener after winning the Natty and Saban’s final season. A front passed through and it stormed its arse off forever with even longer lightning delays. A few guys from the student section ran on the field and were tackled by police. Then a grown arse man started streaking butt arse naked on the field and got pummeled on the field by security. IIRC he got hit with a sex offender charge because if it and was trying to fund his legal fees from the rant way back when. The game itself was a sloppy mess with Randall starting. Oregon State should have beaten us , games goes into overtime and Oregon State misses extra point. Field was pretty sloppy as well.
Tennesssee 2005
Monday night after Katrina. Les’ first game at Tiger Stadium. Despite it being at night this game was the absolute hottest game I ever went to at Tiger Stadium. It felt like someone microwaved a wet blanket and then threw it on top of you. I can still remember the feeling. Again it was Monday night because of the unexpected bye week for Katrina. First half of game we gone out and kicked arse 21-0. The morale boost we all needed after such a stressful time. The second half we fall apart and get worked by Tennessee. I distinctly remember some guy yelling “YOU'RE LOSING TO RICKY frickIN CLAWSON!!”game goes to overtime and they beat us by a field goal. The official start of the Les Miles era.

That Oregon St game was weirder than you described. They actually missed 3 extra points that night. The last one in OT to eke put a Tiger victory
But I remember the streakers after a torrential thunderstorm.

LSU-Tennessee 2010.
Derek Dooley grasped defeat from the jaws of victory.

Tennessee 2005 was just hot

2010 Tennessee game has to be the obvious answer with how it ended but that game sucked total arse outside the very beginning and the very end

I've always thought the 2005 Auburn game was pretty crazy too. Similar to the Oregon State game Auburn's good kicker missed 5 field goals including the one in overtime to give LSU the win
I have pretty vivid memories of that game as a kid growing up
Those early Les years had some insane things happen it seemed like almost every week

After that game someone set the tail on fire of that auburn van that would travel around the sec. I remember it vividly as we rode by in the bed of my buddy's truck. They had just put the fire out and the owners were talking to police. Huge crowd had gathered. Then an lsu chant broke out and the cops couldn't hear the van owners trying to give their report.

Tennessee 2010: scored on the first play of the game and the last play of the game. I scored that night. All around weird day.

1998 Alabama at LSU
I saw Herb walk out of the locker room and said, “Herb!” He just looked at me and said, “that was rough”.
We were up 16-7 w four min left.
We even blocked a fg. We are in melt the clock mode.
They still get the back back.
Score.
Kick onside and recover it.
They score. 22-16.
Sickening.
