(08-15-2017 04:07 PM)21-17 Best Time I Ever Ha Wrote:  The Grove used to be so much more pleasant. Back in the 1980's, before it got so crowded, the traffic was manageable, you could drive on campus and park right next to the Grove, and after the game the band split up into small groups and serenaded the tailgaters. That was magical at night. What always impressed me, though, is that many tailgaters stayed and partied for quite a while after the games while the traffic cleared. They didn't all rush home like the vast majority of our Tiger suburbanites.

Now, y'all don't be calling me a Rebel/Black Bear/Land Shark like Btiger. My late, beloved father was the biggest Ole Miss fan in the world, and I spent many fine fall afternoons in the Grove with him as a young person. He also took me to Crump Stadium in 1963 to my first football game where we played those Rebs to a 3-3 tie, and that instilled in me a lifelong passion for football.

Cool story about your dad. My first game was at Crump too. Catholic High vs CBC.

But that score was 0-0.
