re: Weirdest game you ever seen in Tiger Stadium?

1982 Florida State where they threw oranges on the field and the reference had to make an announcement if it did stop they were going to award Florida State points.

1988 Miami hurricane game it rained so hard I was sitting in water in my seat in the South end zone. It literally rained that hard where it didn't have time to drain off quick enough.

Miami monsoon game is 88 or 89? Somewhere around there

Tennessee 2010 when we survived another end of game Less clusterfrick only because T-Bob had the wherewithal to hike the ball. I never experienced a win that felt like a loss more than that win.

This!

Tennessee wasn't a good team. Jefferson takes the opening play 83 yards for a TD and you think LSU is going to have an easy time with the game. Then the offense is terrible. Nothing but punts and TOs the rest of the way. Lee takes over at QB in the 4th, leads a good drive to 1st and goal where it looks like LSU will take the lead. He then throws an INT in the endzone.


Tennessee then has 4th & 1 at the LSU 30 with just under 6:00 minutes to go. It would not have ended the game. But they could have drained another 2:00 - 3:00 off the clock and maybe made it a 7 point game (17-10). LSU gets a huge stop. Then Jarrett Lee becomes a different QB. He converts a 3rd and 13 with 1:48. Then a 4th and 14 with 1:12. It looks like Les is going to pull another improbable win out of his hat after another lackluster performance against an inferior team...then chaos starts...then Les does get the most improbable win of his career.

This was the year after the clock management debacle at Ole Miss. So no one was in the mood to "celebrate" the win. Everyone was pissed. I actually felt bad for the Tennessee players. They had a big win. But, because LSU was so unbelievably disorganized it forced Tennessee in to a spot that they didn't know what the hell to do.

I never understood why that game was so poorly attended. It was a good game and LSU was coming off a 49-0 shellacquing of a decent Kentucky team.

LSU - McNeese 2015….

Opening game that was immediately canceled after like 3 plays due to lightning

I have been going to LSU games for over 35 years and this was my first and last game in a suite.

Just my luck

LSU mcneese rain delay and canceled

After the botched snap, I stormed out of the stadium in a huff. While walking outside I discovered that the game was not over

I’ve heard several stories from folks like you who were beyond the stadium gates, heard the commotion from the flag and replay, and ran back inside

Oregon State 2004
Tennessee 2005
Auburn 2007
Tennessee 2010
Troy 2008
Troy 2017
Florida 2021
Fresno State 2006

A few of you mentioned 2015 McNesse I don't remember that one at all.

Never mind cajuntiget1010 mentioned the reason but I still don't remember it.

I was there for that 1988 Miami game. Worst weather I've ever experienced at a game. I also remember how cocky Miami was. In pregame warmup, the receiver would run a down and out and after catching the pass, he would kick the orange cone up in the stands. Next guy runs same route and proceeds again to kick the cone into the stands

LSU vs Troy (2008)

Blistering cold night when LSU scored 37 unanswered in a come-from-behind win.
