The scariest walk back to the car was in Knoxville following our OT loss to you guys in '98. My other 8 trips to Neyland were uneventful as far as obnoxious fans. I get a random "Gators Suck" from a frat kid, usually traveling in a pack of frat kids, but that's expected.
I've attended the Cocktail Party in Jacksonville every year since 1984 and I've seen the worst in both fan bases.
The most obnoxious fan base believe it or not were UK fans in 2007. They were ranked for a change, they upset #1 LSU the week prior, and Gameday was in Lexington for the first time. A fight almost broke out when we started setting up our tailgate tents next to a couple UK fans' tents who were looking to start trouble. That was a first.
LSU fans are rowdy, but in my travels to Baton Rouge I noticed if you can handle a 50 year-old Cajun yelling Tiger Bait directly in your ear, that 50 year-old Cajun will invite you to his tailgate and feed you some of the best grub ever cooked up outside of a football stadium.
I've had no issues with Alabama, Auburn, South Carolina, Arkansas, Ole Miss or Vandy fans. The Mizzou fans we tailgated with in Gainesville were great, and we exchanged contact info so they could return the hospitality when UF comes to their place later this season.
Ive never been to Kyle Field, but from all accounts Texas A&M fans are easily the friendliest in the conference.
And of course, when I'm in Gainesville I like to sexually assault the opposing coach's wife while throwing batteries and piss bombs at rival fans...but not before slashing their tires, busting out windows and keying "Go Gators!" in the hood of their rental car. If I'm feeling really good I'll punch a random elderly rival fan in the face, then steal their wallet.
