re: My Experience in College Station

My Son and two of his friends went to the game and sat with Aggie fans in front of and behind, and we had a very positive experience. Good conversation and light hearted ribbing. We all agreed we'd go back in two years, but will be more inclined to share "our" tailgate experience with these fine folks.

In short, we'll gladly travel to A&M again .
I had no clue when I started this thread that I'd get this many replies. It sounds like all my fellow scouts who have replied thus far had as much fun and their own share of funny experiences being an usher. Makes me wonder if this is unique to Tiger Stadium or is it a common thing in other stadiums and their respective programs

You never know what wife and kids may have in store for you down the road for making that sacrifice. Cool thing is you wont have to remind them (as women are very forgetful about the things we do for them) the fact that this rivalry has gone to a level that's now "out of this universe", and will roll around next year and each year afterward, you will only have to just smile !!!!
Lol, I used to think they sold beer in the stadium 'cause everybody had it out in the open. What's the world coming to when you can't drink in Tiger Stadium ? :) :cheers:
I remember taking a cold coke out of the ice box early in the morning and wrapping it in news paper and then foil to try and keep it cold in the brown paper bag that held my sandwich. There was no such thing as the small coolers like we have today....or at least I don't remember them.
This game between LSU & Ala. has brought back memories of ushering in T.S. when I was a Boy Scout. I think it was the 77-78 season we played Ala. at home, and it was a day game. A few hours before the game, and while the stadium was empty, someone had all the troops present to assemble on the bleachers down close to the field and both coaches gave a short "pep/appreciation talk" to us. I don't remember much about it as I was probably thinking other things like "I wish we were camping" , but in time these trips to the stadium, as a young kid, made me a die hard LSU Tiger fan. I'm excited about the game and regardless of the outcome we still have a tradition, a style, and a Love for the program that's not equaled by many others in College Football. Go Tigers !!!

Thanks for the ATM info. Remember Pearl Harbor !
Points well taken. I had thought we were actually closer than further from a first down. It just seemed to fly in the face of trying to score in the final minutes and seconds of the half. The choice to punt appeared to signal "we aren't confident ".

To me the punt allowed Arky more time to approach their next play, where as to have gone for it and not made it wouldn't have given them as much time to call a play down.

Missed tackle? Yeah your right that was the final failure in that play, but not the only domino to fall making that the only reason they scored.

We lost in many other areas Saturday, but that decision just seemed to me to be a tipping point. Enough said. Screw Crowton, FIRE CROWTON !

1st half punt with 14 seconds left....

Am I the only one who was screaming wtf ? We're 4 th down and short ( think it was 2 yds, but may have been only 1 yd.) and there's only 14 seconds left. If we go for it we might- 1. Make the first down and get one more play off. 2. We score. 3. We turn the ball over on downs with 9 or so seconds left. 4. We turn it over (fumble/interception) and the clock continues to run until the ball is whisteled dead.

However, we punt with 14 seconds left the clock stops with change of possession and they quite possibly have 2 opportunities to score, but we all know now they only needed one. This just seemed like the tipping point for me.

Many would argue that this was a conservative call and the right one to make, but come on give up one more chance at scoring or getting first down with 14 seconds left ?

FIRE CROWTON NOW.

Go to Roberts Western World, The Stage, or Legends. Roberts has a little cheaper beer I think Miller High Life is 2.00 per btl. Rippys has great food and nice place to listen to music as well.

You got that right. I'm liable to shite my britches at any time. Who the hell am I fooling, we're in for a fight. I just can't imagine anything less than blood, guts, body pieces, flat footballs,flat balls, concussions and that's just in the first half for Floorida ! :cheers: If we're both living Sunday morning I'll toast ya either way. :geauxtigers:

Hey tigerfan in bamaland, I love that Don Trioni {sic} painting in your avatar. We have it hanging at Camp Moore Confederate Museum & Cemetery in Tangipahoa, La. Camp Moore was a training camp for nearly 30 thousand sons of Louisiana who fought during the W.B.t S. It's also the only site of its kind recognized as a historic site.

Just thought you might like to know.
