Should be higher.

Should be higher.

That account has never been to Boone or half of college campuses for that matter.

Big Game Boomer should be shot into the nearest available sun.

They're just a list aggregator to get engagements and RT's from athletics officials, which creates even dumber internet fights.

No athletic official should never engage BGB's content because there's no basis in reality. I'm talking directly to you, Katie Pate.

Just a couple observations that don't make sense on this list. Trying to be neutral but I have gone to a UGA game and there ain't no way NC State is better than UGA. And is Iowa St really better than UGA?

I was at USC (South Carolina) a few years ago and it wasn't UGA.

Not trying to pump UGA by any means as I am not a fan but I have to respect their fanbase and this list can't be accurate.

This dude just randomly makes crap up and posts it to get views and clicks. It seems every season has things that make absolutely no sense but because they are outrageous, people post them and he gets more views (or whatever social media tracking thing he has). I only see his stuff when someone posts it on here but it does seem to be an annual thing and it is absolute crap.

Easy on Katie Pate. Most people that have seen BGB material understand what is going on. With that said, most of the lists that App is on show favorable for App, Boone, and the football program which is good for the brand. A lot of followers comment on these lists so at the very least it gets the App brand out there and fans aren’t the only ones that pay attention. Plenty of athletes and recruits do as well. I’m pretty sure Katie Pate understands this completely. So what is the problem? Katie is doing a tremendous job for App including her social media commentary. Athletic Director DG noticed and she got a promotion…Thanks you BGB and Katie Pate

I really don't care much about random opinion based stuff that some person spews. I didn't read anything on this but what exactly is the criteria? Schools with 80,000 seats will obviously have more humans parked around the stadium and more stuff going on. I've seen aspects of our tailgate experience that doesn't thrill me- like students puking in garbage cans at 11:00 in the morning or massive amounts of trash everywhere. I know those are common occurrences at every game day. We are just a wee bit biased towards our campus and game days. I think the game day experience as a whole in Boone (on nice days) is top 10.

Been to 5 of the top 10, 9 of top 20, and 12 of top 30.

App doesn’t have the sheer #s of some but /capita app is up there. We are also much more spread out than most or all of the top schools. If we were on a few fields close to KBs we’d be much higher
