At Auburn 2002. Rained for almost the whole game and we got our asses handed to us. To boot, one of my friends was arrested the night before while we were out.

Our seats were on the very top row. When the pregame jets flew over, we could have reached out and touched them. The wind was blowing so hard it bent one of the goal posts and knocked a huge panel out of the jumbotron that fell into the seats.


This. A piece hit a women right in front of us. I tweeted a picture of it and I started getting DMs from 5 or 6 personal injury attorneys in Tennessee. I lol'd because I am a civil-defense attorney. The woman was completely fine by the way.

97 independence bowl. I was only 6 but I absolutely remember every freezing cold second. And beating down notre dame of course. Brings back so many memories. My cousin was dating markeith spears at that time.

LSU Miss State 2007, drove with some friends from college in Mobile, got to the game right at kickoff, it poured practically the entire game, we drove straight home after, completely soaked, I skipped class in the morning lol

Beat em 45-0 and their QB threw 6 INTS, 3 to Craig Steltz

Can we get Croom back at Moo STate?

Away game? The Miss St tailgate for the 11am game in 07 was nasty but game wasn't too bad. 06 Florida was 190 degrees and we were in the sunshine seats so I'll say that. Plus we lost and that sucked.

I was at that game in Knoxville. Mrs jkyle headed for the bathroom while I stayed in my seat like an idiot through the whole thing. I couldn’t even see the field to start the 3rd quarter.

Agree with Arena30!

I've been to many road games. The worst weather I've sat through was in Shreveport, LA

Low 20's and sleeting most of the game. Thankful to witness the win though!

Miss St in Jackson back in the 70s? Freezing rain and I dropped and broke our fifth of rum on the way in. Had to rely on the kindness of strangers all game.

I was there - I think some of the concessions stands ran out of ice. The hotness was unbelievable

Worst weather was a long time ago where it never rains.

Well, it did, but it was almost sleeting. Late November game versus Tulane...

Auburn at tiger stadium about 6 years ago. I remember just pissing myself instead of getting up after a ton of beer because we were soaked and the upper section was draining onto us.

For bowl games, the 97 Independence bowl vs Notre Dame was cold as shite. My buddy and I had to leave the field at halftime to go and thaw out in the car.

Oops. Obviously this was a home game.

Miami 1998 in Tiger Stadium. It was falling in sheets sideways. Even jimmy johnson’s hair couldn’t hold up. me and a couple buddies watched it from the sidelines. Miami kicked our arse!

I was at the Tennessee game and it was pretty bad.

Paled in comparison to '88 Miami in Tiger Stadium.

Never seen anything like it.
