Same as others have said. I thought the gates opened at 5:30 so I got there 5:15... they had opened at 5pm. I waited 2.5 hours in the rain and cold (luckily light rain) with mostly UGA fans. It was packed, people were shouting, shoving, pushing. A few were obnoxious right next to me. I could not really move. I did make it to my seat with 8 minutes til kick off. The Club Lounge area is very nice.
I had great seats 10 rows up from the field, but on the Georgia side. Most of the fans were okay around me, but there were about 4 who were not. They were loud, cursing, saying bad things about Bama and the refs. As soon as we won in OT, I turned around and those 4 were gone already!
I am so glad that half time show was not in the stadium. That was horrible. They did show a few minutes of it on the screen, but luckily I got to watch the band instead.
Exit was not that bad because we stayed for the ceremony for about 15 minutes afterwards. I walked by Matt Stinchcomb on the way out. He sure is tall!
Uber was an hour late picking us up so that was not good. I got home around 3am, watched TV and read things on my phone until 5:00, then got 3 hours of sleep.
It was ALL worth it, even though I was miserable waiting to get in the stadium and the 1st half of the game was miserable on offense. I am so happy that we won and that Tua was part of it. I have already re-watched the game once and plan on watching the 4th quarter and overtime again soon.
There has
got to be a better way for people to get into that stadium. They should have opened it at 3pm or 4pm instead of 5pm, especially knowing Trump was coming.
