Went to the LSU/ARK game last year in Fayetteville with my cousin that's a die hard Razorbacks fan and had a blast. It's beautiful country up there. I was all decked out in my LSU attire, and the fans were super cool from my experience. I got heckled, but it was all out of good fun. And I definitely heckled back. The only time I got a dirty look was when I yelled out "Home of the Tigers" instead of "Home of the brave" in the Star Spangled Banner.

This year ill be at TCU, Georgia, bama, and ole miss. Looking forward to Georgia the most. Bama is a good time and ole miss has Beaucoup hot women. Tennessee was a lot of fun as was A&M. I've stayed away from Gainesville bc I heard they were by far the worst trip to make.

Best away games I've been to:
At Florida in '04 (won on the last drive) and to hear that entire stadium become silent was awesome.
At Tennessee '06 and '11
At Auburn '08
At Bama '03. We were the only 3 yellow dots in the sea of red. Got 45 yard line seats for $60 outside the stadium.

Been to:
Bama
Ole Miss
Miss State
Auburn
Arkansas
A&M
Georgia
Florida
Tennessee

MY experiences:
Florida and Georgia were some of the best in terms of partying an pregame smack talk.
Bama is the absolute worst....lots of "just hope it's a good game" , "we'll see" comments before the game. Warzone after. Rude, mean, angry, sour fans after the game regardless of the outcome...hahahahhaha. Bipolar group.

I really like USC and UGA with UGA being top away game. I don't like Florida that much. Auburn was pretty awesome. Alabama is good before and during the game, but it can be hell afterward. Ole Miss is okay, a little overrated.

I have been to all with the exception of Mizzou, UK and Texas A&M. Been to Arkansas in Little Rock, but really want to go to in Fayetteville so I guess I am missing four.

Some may disagree with me, but I like all of the EAST schools way more than any of the other WEST schools.

My order would be:

1) UGA
2) South Carolina
3) Florida
4) Tennessee
5) Vandy

then, yes the West:

6) Alabama
7) Ole Miss
8) Arkansas (Little Rock)
9) Mississippi State
10) Auburn

Auburn is by far the worst road trip. I do not know why Starkville gets made fun of so much because Auburn was like a Beverly Hillbillies Family Reunion.

I want to go to all the others in this order:

1) Texas A&M
2) Fayetteville
3) UK
4) MIssouri-----the only thing that would get me excited about this other than just to cross it off my list is if we played them in September and I could catch a St. Louis Cardinals game on Friday night in Busch Stadium.

I don't know why I enjoyed all the East schools better than all the other West schools but I would go to all I list before any other school in the West besides LSU.

UT is my favorite of them all. Great area, good food, usually good fans, good atmosphere. Georgia is probably second. Then Florida. The worst are Miss St and Arkansas in Little Rock just because the towns and stadiums suck so bad.

The worst fans are usually Bama and Auburn with Florida and Georgia being up there too. Ole Miss has terrible fans but you kinda feel sorry for them too.

Miss state sucks
Ark really sucks
Fla sucks
Vandy sucks

Haven't been to lex or USC.

I've been to

Bama
Jerryworld
Arkansas (ville)
Arkansas (LR)
Ole Miss
Auburn

Bama is far the best i've been to in terms of tailgating and pregame activities -similar to Baton Rouge; however, when we won the game in 2011, T-town literally shut down and no one was allowed in the bars. Therefore we just drove back to BR. That sucked

Ole Miss was fun but IMO overrated. It's a top 3-4 game day experience but my first time there I wasn't impressed ( I guess I hyped it up too much in my head). Thought the campus/stadium was going to be way nicer than I expected but everything else about Oxford was awesome. Good experience none the less though

Looking forward to UGA. Have heard nothing but great things

1. UGA- best overall experience, great game and environment and very nice campus to wonder around on
2. Auburn- great games and I the fans liked us and gave us free food & beer
3. Bama- 2nd best environment and the games have been good there (would have been second if free food & beer)
4. Florida- best stadium atomosphere outside of Death Valley, but the people and cops made it tougher to have fun
5. Vandy- had a good time after the game in downtown Nashville
6. Texas A&M- only tailgated for it, but that was still a good time there
7. Ole Miss- drove there and back in the same day as the game and we loss
8. Arkansas- cold, rainy and was played in that high school stadium in Little Rock

EASILY one of my least favorite road trips.

Ole Miss can be alot of fun if you have someone hosting you, if not, it can be REALLY boring.

Bama is fun no matter who you are and UT makes for a nice vacation for a road trip.

1. Athens
2. Sky Bar
3. Bama
4. aTm

Oxford doesn't hold a candle to those four. I just don't get the appeal.
