We went last year and my wife hated it. She was like, what do you mean y’all can’t cook? She also said it was to crowded and she hated the fact that we had to carry everything in.

I told her she was spoiled by our tailgating.


I was shocked that after the game they were all packing up. I figured they would be having a big party after beating us

Exactly.

It’s akin to taking ALL of the tailgating on LSU’s campus and confining it to the parade grounds

One of the best settings in all of college football.

I think it was 2007 when the LSU pimps pulled up to the edge of the grove in a limo and proceeded to wreck shite. I know they got a bad rap on here, but watching the Ole Miss folks react was priceless.

I was there, and watching the OM fans walk by pearl clutching was fun. Most of them treated them like a zoo exhibit.

A cold chicken tender. I can’t think of anything else but that.

Kroger. They don't have a Publix in Oxford.

Still shite regardless

Been to the Grove 5 times. LAME AF...any campus that makes you put padlocks on your coolers, sucks.

One of, if not THE most, overrated “tailgating” traditions in the sport. I’d sooner have more fun at at least half of the other SEC schools

The Grove is disappointing.

No cooking .
A fancy chandelier over grocery store finger sandwiches and chicken fingers.
Lock on your ice chest?
Can’t have a regular beer in your hand.
Can’t have alcohol showing.
You have to make a cocktail and beer with a red solo cup with your hands hiding in your ice chest.
It seemed like everyone gets one 8X8 tent space , so pack um tight. Not much room to spread around.

Maybe some of these rules have been relaxed. But when I was there they were in full force.
