No man:funn: You are killing me...:funn: This reminds me of when we used to actually road trip in the good old days. Gainesville was as tough as it got, probably as bad as Baton Rouge
I am embarrased to say it, but in preparing for a Florida game in the late 80s, I actually saw a sign that read "Gainesville murderer sez dismember the Gators"

Hey, Red Stick is a brutal place to play as an opponent. When my husband (fiance at that time) was a Tulane basketball player, a fight broke out during a Tulane-LSU game. He got beaten up by LSU fans. Tulane had the only black player on the court, and Press Maravich went over to protect the black guy (instead of his million-dollar draft pick son, Pete) because he knew the LSU fans would kill the guy.

I missed it -- was in NOLA studying for a test. I was more into A's then than sports.

That must have been 1990.
I think I remember that. Did they do it in Death Valley? The SEC is so classy. Actually Auburn fans are really nice. The rest? Hmmm.

Yeah, the Aubbies are kind of like your stereotypical country folks. They are uptight in Tuscaloosa. Gainesville requires VERY thick skin. The closest I ever got to being involved in a football melee was in Athens-it involved some redneck tipping the cops off that we had booze in the stadium;otherwise, the Georgians are pretty genteel. Of all things we were flipped-off by a Vandy player for heckling, but the people there are like strawmen, just hoping they don't lose. I also did Tallahassee which was way more benign than Gainesville. Have never been to Oxford, Starkvegas, Knoxville or Lexington.
