Re: Great way to end FCS!
I've yet to go to a game at GSU. So, I don't have that experience, but the worst experience I ever had with opposing fans was at JMU in 2008, and it's not close.

Re: Great way to end FCS!
My worst was Chatty in 2010. I saw old men drunkenly pick fights with young App students and had to chase some kid down that grabbed the App flag out of my hand and tried to take off with it as we were leaving. Those people are the scum of the earth.

Re: Great way to end FCS!
Yes that was an experience wasn't it. I have also talked to a lot of people who would not go back there. I would go back as it was all verbal unlike GS, but it did surprise me at JMU.ASUMountaineer wrote:I've yet to go to a game at GSU.

How about best experiences? Not scores but experiences, the way you were treated.
Mine are
1 Montana
2 3 times in Chattanooga
3 Michigan
4 LSU

tie, Montana (they wrote the book on hospitality)
3. Georgia (not terribly welcoming at first, but that changed as the day went on)
4. East Carolina (extremely nice folks, contrary to past reputation)
5. Any opponent in Chattanooga, especially Delaware (yeah, I know, some of you have a bad experience with Hens fans. We didn't. They were great to us.)

My wife and I had a good time at JMU 2008 except for the score of course. Pre-game many of us were standing at the gate having nice conversation.luvyosef wrote:Statesboro students are the spawn of Satan himself.ASUMountaineer wrote:I've yet to go to a game at GSU.

The only thing I did not care for was one particular member of the JMU band (I had endzone seats) that kept going on before the game about this being "their game." But he was not rude, just irritating in his enthusiasm. Also any campus that has a railroad track just outside of their football stadium gets a bit of a pass from the opposing fans from this railfan.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

Re: Great way to end FCS!
Jeez, Cline! Give it a rest already, with your Western fetish. Every time ive been over there, its been a barage of catcalls and foul language aimed at us from idiotic students. And I don't think even you can deny the venom on the Can't board spewed at everyone but you that goes on there to defend our beloved institution. Oh, thats right! You never defend App on there.

Can't blame you for trying to forget that debacle, but we at least sent some guys out on to the field against the Hokies a few years ago, though I wouldn't exactly call it "playing".bcoach wrote:We have never played VTWVAPPeer wrote:We didn't go to LSU or Montana - however I would add Virginia Tech to your list ---bcoach wrote:How about best experiences?

Re: Great way to end FCS!
NC State is pretty bad. After the game, some little punk gave me a shoulder check as I was walking by. When I instantly retaliated and pushed him out of the way, he started to come after me but his buddy stopped him.
