Alabama 2 years ago. We were parked in the RV lot by the Black Warrior River amongst several LSU fans(a few Bama ones). Several of us did not have tickets, no big deal, have been in Bryant-Denny several times. The thing is we were the only RV in the lot that could get the game on TV which of course we always set up outside. We had over 30 people come and go to watch the game with us, mostly college age kids
great time had by all

Best friend at the times sister was dating blair barbier (think they're still together) it was after regionals and some smashed guy came up to us and handed us the keys to his droptop PORSCHE!!! Took it out for two minutes and came back to give it to the guy and he was MIA. Left the Porsche top down in front yard of his house and next day had a torrential downpour where we couldn't figure out how to put the top up. Ruined the guys porsche. He said no big deal "Win a National Championship" and then left.

Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, we present the 5 winners of the 2009 contest!

Winners
First Place - BelowMeBama for the rare experience of ruining someone else's Porsche with a total lack of consequences. Next time you ruin a $60,000 sports car, try and have a little more fun with it first.
First Place - Smyrnatiger for a story with all the essential tailgate ingredients: alcohol, body paint, and cold-blooded deception.
First Place - Tigerdup07 for his dedication to gameday tailgating, no matter how far away the tailgate is from the actual game.
First Place - Buck Magnum for his weird story of witnessing a hog getting beat, unfortunately a rare occurrence for LSU fans the last couple of years
First Place - Emorvant for a classic underdog tale, and inspiring young tailgaters everywhere that they, too, can be champions.

Honorable Mentions go to...
Cubsgrace for a heartwarming example of why escalators should be installed in Tiger Stadium
Schwartz and Bond Road for perpetuating the LSU fan stereotype
The Official gets a (dis)honorable mention for the irony of stealing “Gentleman” Jack from innocent, unsuspecting neighbors. A double mention for pretending that it was his friends, not him, who did it.
GeauxDJBack9 for suggesting an alternative motive to Back9Tiger's tale. Depending on who you ask, this hero was injured trying to keep children safe from this oncoming train OR he was risking his life flattening change. Either way, a noble deed.
Nikinik for writing the post that made us the hungriest
Over50Tiger for introducing television technology to the State of Alabama

Was tailgating at a Bama game. Started talking to some Bama fans parked near by. All they had was a little Habachi grill with some red dogs on it. I asked them if they wanted to eat some real food and invited them over where we were. Bama dude slid his Habachi grill under his car. I told him that was a bad idea, but he said that's what he usually does, and it was not a problem.
Well needless to say, his car caught on fire. By the time the fire department there, the thing was a piece of toast.

The below is pretty funny, but I'm glad I don't have friends like this.

quote:

In 2003 for the Georgia game, we went out on friday night to pick a spot for early saturday morning. Well we ended up drinking 3 kegs that night and stayed up all night. One guy was so drunk that we told him at 7 in the morning that LSU and Georgia already played and that LSU lost so he tore up his ticket and headed home. We called him an hour later he just arrived at his house still not knowing what happened. We then painted ourselves and got on espn.

This crewe is sposored by Bergerons. It happened in front of the AG Eng Building on that corner lot. The second guy did leave for the hospital and missed the game. He received several stitches. The next time they tailgated, fans from the BOTH LSU and their opponent that week came-up to him saying "they saw it on YouTube.

Wish I'd seen this thread earlier.

1990 Texas A&M game. Got completely smashed at the Kirby Smith tailgate, then proceeded to crash the Graham Hall tailgate (hitting a few choice grills along the way). Ended up with a buddy from Kirby on the 3rd floor "balcony*" of South Graham Tigerbaiting all the Aggies walking by underneath.

Don't remember how I got down, but do remember being in the stands a few hours later watching Todd Kinchen run circles (literally, I think) around the Aggies.

An Aggie fan recognized me on the way out of the stadium and said he'd figured I'd kill myself falling off the building. I had no idea what the heck he was talking about until I woke up the next afternoon.

* South Graham had no balcony; there was about a 6" ledge around the outside of each floor of the building. I still have no memory of climbing up the side of the building or climbing down.

we had a problem with people stealing icechests out of the back of our truck a few years ago. the next week we locked up all the icechests and filled a bottle of bacardi 151 with human urine and left that on a table next to the truck. after the game the bottle was empty on the table
