T-Town in 2019 is my favorite away game experience.

03 UGA, 07 Florida, 2014 Ole Miss (Logan Stokes TD catch), 2018 UGA, 2019 Florida all come to mind. The list could go on and on. So many great games I've got to experience inside that stadium starting in 2000 with my parents.

Didn't read through all the pages, but my favorite game (as many others of my age) is the 1979 loss to #1 USC 17-12. Bogus facemask call against Benjy Thibodaux in the 4th quarter, with LSU leading 12-10 and USC desperate on a missed 4th down, continued their drive and led to the loss.

I was a freshman at LSU, and after two blowouts against Colorado and Rice this was my first time attending a REAL HUGE football game. Couldn't believe the crowd, the noise, the band, the hopes, and ultimately the despair we all shared. I'll never forget it.

I've been a season ticket holder for almost 40 years since then. I've witnessed national championships, the 1982 FSU game, 2003 Georgia, 2007 Florida, and many others. That USC game is the one I remember most.

I have 2. My neighbor back in my home town of Metry, brought me, and 2 of my childhood pals to TS in 1982. It was my first game in the stadium as a 10 year old. Final score was 55-21 Tigers. It was absolutely electric, and an experience I'll cherish till I take a dirt nap. The other was 1995 game v Auburn. Realistically, Dinardo and Faulk got the ball rolling which is now modern day LSU football. The 2000 Tennessee game is right up there too. Still have chunks of turf in a zip loc bag.

The 1982 Florida State game is one I will always remember, the fog and the oranges flying everywhere and the arse kicking applied to FSU.

was the most surreal and amazing game I've ever seen or been to...

Honestly I was too drunk to remember what happened in the games I went to. But that was in the 80's, and well, we were not very good. Getting drunk was the best part.

1979 USC was the most memorable sporting event I ever attended anywhere. It’s not on more of these lists because I’m old (I was a junior in the student section) and probably most on these boards weren’t born yet.

My parents might have said 1959 Ole Miss; they were there, having left me with my aunt & uncle for the evening when I was 3 weeks old.

My Favorite... The best...at Bama with Rohan and Josh Reid..

Rohan an Reid played pitch and catch all day. Their fan base was distraught, embarrassed. But the absolute cherry on top was listening to the local call in post game show... You think we melt down? Oh, it was priceless... Sitting in parking lot traffic pumping the post game melt down loud.. Windows down... It was a special day.

The most fun I guess was vs. Rice in 1977. 77-0

the most memorable was the oft-mentioned LSU vs USC in '79

#1 2019 UF (I had never personally experienced that level of electricity in TS from well before kickoff until well after the outcome was decided. My youngest son’s first game. He never sat the whole night)
#1 2003 UGA (the explosion when Green caught the go ahead TD was insane. Probably my #1 “moment”)
