I froze my arse off at the Ole Miss game in 1995, but it's mostly because I dressed like a dumbass. It wasn't really that bad.

Arkansas in Little Rock 2000 - cold rain. Shivering hands trying to operate car keys.

Was well prepared for the Independence Bowl against ND. Wasn't a problem.

2014 at Arkansas. Freezing cold and we got beat 17-0. It was a miserable game for a tiger fan.

I've been to some scorchers, but I'm nominating Tennessee 2017. During halftime and the start of the second half, it felt like we were in the middle of a tropical storm. UT even lost the ball on the kickoff because it was raining so hard.


I was there for that one as well.

I'll take the typhoon over the heat of the 2019 Utah St. game any day of the week. I thought my 4 y.o. was going to pass out in the 2nd quarter. I was really worried about that long walk back to the truck with him slung over my back after the game. Luckily he stayed conscious.

Rain - Miami 1988.


But the most miserable for me was the heat at the Utah St game 2019...

Some young clown from Jim Feist boiler room calls and is trying to sell me on their service.

I tell him you should be trying to buy info from me, not the other way around. You're trying to sell me Feist, Chirimbes, Cokin..when I have Billy Walters, Billy Baxter, Kosher Bros, Tiger, Chip Reese, Dewey Tomko,etc..teams.

Eventually it comes to me mentioning that I'm a student at LSU. He says "Oh, LSU +7 is one of our big plays this week"..

I say "Buddy, no chance, it's gonna get ugly!"..and I wasn't implying the Canes bringing their own weather with 'em.

I was at a Miss State game in I believe 1951 and the temperature was about 20 degrees F and it was as cold as I have ever been to a game anywhere. Cliff Springfield kicked a FG on LSU’s first drive. The game ended 3-0. The teams never got past their own 40 the rest of the game.

There was a game in the Cotton Bowl around 1947 against AR that the weather was similar.

The weather was pretty bad when we played ND in the Independence Bowl in Shrepirt in 1997. Great game after the weather cleared.

Independence Bowl in Shreveport. 1999 or so. Froze my butt off along with a fine mist

This was the coldest I have ever been at a game. Misty rain was freezing on my jacket. LSU vs. the Irish! 1999.

The day Fournette trucked the entire Auburn defense. I won’t say that was for sure the hottest game I’ve ever experienced temperature wise, but that was undoubtedly the hottest I’ve ever been. I’m pretty sure my seat was at the perfect angle for the sun to really frick me that day. I just remember people being passed out in the concourses, numerous people being taken out by any way they could (I saw stretchers, wheelchairs, people being carried) and the water being hot before you took 5 sips.

2007 ark game was pretty bad, I froze and we lost and at the time I thought we lost out of chance at championship. Just terrible to lose to a couple of rbs

I haven't attended as many games as perhaps most of you, but the November 2014 game at Fayetteville, Ark. was bad enough. It was very cold with possible snow in the forecast. And the Tigers didn't play very well either.
