[quote]calling bullshite on that. Our fans pelt opposing fans with piss balloons, knock over old ladies, and steal candy from little kids[/quote] Ya'll aint so tuff....(though I'd be happy to tell people we were showered with piss bombs and batteries if it'd make you feel better) :lol:...

[quote]Glad you enjoyed it (though I wish you'd not enjoyed the ending quite as much.) Aren't you glad we saved the piss balloons for Bama?[/quote] I even brought my rain jacket.......

Thanks!!! (From a visiting FL fan)

I posted on here prior to my visit looking for advice. Got overwhelming response, mostly sincere. Thought I'd give quick update on my visit. I came down with 7 guys from work, none of whom were either UF or LSU grades (I'm UF grad). I have to tell you we had a great time and that there are n...
[quote]Just understand this....LSU football games and the tailgating is like no other experience. I know the Swamp can be loud and the Gators are a great team...but that is all you have there in Gainesville that can compare to what you are going to experience. The people that will be on campus, ther...
We're leaving NO around 8:30-9AM in our lovely 15 passenger van......(based solely on the recommendations received here!)...
That's cool. I'm on alumni side of swamp now and it pisses me off when people don't get up and scream. Lot of old-timers.......

re: Tebow's status...doctors input welcome

Word on our boards from "insiders" today is he's playing. I'd guess Brantley starts (he's earned the chance to play) and plays first series then 15 comes in after....
It's almost time!!! Thanks again for all the responses. Leave tomorrow AM for NO. Have our van rented to get up to BR pretty early. Hopefully the weather cooperates. Sounds like good chance of rain. Season has been a strange one. Tigers have underperformed my expectations, particularly on...
[quote] I don't think Tebow under center will be as effective as shotgun... actually I suspect Florida will implode this year like Auburn did last year[/quote] Not sure you're going to see too much of him under center but like everything Meyer does it will be designed to try and keep defenses of...
[quote]You'll be properly welcomed. Then flamed. Welcome to the board. Now go frick yourself.[/quote] I'd could respond with equal vile and vigor but kicking your arse in your home stadium will suffice. Go Gators! :cheers:...

re: LSU/FL - my first visit to Tiger Stadium

I'd like to respond individually to many who have posted but I'm on the road and don't have the time. Needless to say, a 5 page thread responding to an "enemy" request for help says a lot about the fan base - especially the nature and tone of the responses. I'm even more stoked now for Oct. to rol...
[quote]If you are flying out of NO on Sunday just rent a car and find a hotel to sleeep in BR for Sat Night. That way you won;t have to drive back after the game.[/quote] That is exactly what I'm likely to do now based on all the input. Thks....
You all have been awesome with your advice. My takeaways: 1) Reconsider travel plans to arrive earlier (will try to do this based on number of comments); 2) Being thick-skinned, cool not a dick (not a problem; I treat visiting fans same way in gainesville) 3) Get in the stadium earlier than I ...

[quote]Better come earlier than noon unless you wanna park FAR away ![/quote] Feel like a loser but taking a bus. None in my group wanted to be held responsible for driving....
Thanks for the advice Alajones! Those A10's are cool as heck. You fly one?...
[quote]the gators only loss of the year.[/quote] I expect a much closer game than last year no surprise but it's hard for me to predict any loss this year given everything we have coming back. That said, if something strange happens (usually does) and it's our only loss of the year, I'll take it...
[quote]after a few urine bombs, you might change your mind... maybe a few batteries here and there.[/quote] could be. I'm guessing I'll be high enough up in the corner of the stadium that only God could throw a piss bomb down on me....
Will let them know they're at risk of losing out on the legendary food.......
Not sure 8AM will work but you're right, I'd prefer more like 10-11AM but we're hoping bus with bigger group. Was lazy in arranging it. Will keep eyes open for earlier alternative....
Not worried about the natural bantering of crap back and forth. It's a big part of the experience. That said, I'm sure none of my 7 buddies will be wearing orange & blue - big wimps....
