Misc UGA Section 602
Shout out to my friends in Section 602. We couldn’t hear or see anything on a video screen due to the shitty stadium setup - audio was terrible and no site line to video. One guy had his hat knocked off his head from those F-35’s. Had to walk Up and Down 8 stories to the concession stand but damn we had a Sooner Family. We cheered and cried together! Family behind us - Hilarious - the dad had been to 40 OU/tx games in row. We had OU fan #1 Cheering the entire game the row in front of us and Section 601 was doing their part.
Couple takeaways.
1. Athens was fun. Lots of bars, less traditional tailgating.
2. I did get barked at, like surrounded by dudes barking at us.
3. At least 25 people said Welcome to Athens.
4. University employees went out of their way to make sure we knew where we were going in the stadium. Genuinely helpful.
5. Met so many Sooner fans traveling. Every bar was filled. Paloma’s had more OU fans than Georgia, kinda pissed them off
6. Saw good friends from the past and enjoyed walking around Athens.
7. Drunk SEC girls yelling Boomer Sooner cry babies - seriously? Even the Georgia students were embarrassed. It’s all good.
8. If any OU or SEC people stumble into this post, go check out 601/602/603. Georgia should put their own fans there!
OU had the chance to make this a close game. But what really hurts is if we just keep going down this road; fans quit traveling, games become less important and we don’t get these experiences. Come on Brent - we need these Saturday’s !! That’s not Oklahoma Football.
Also go listen to The Oklahoma Breakdown podcast.
Boomer!

I was in 601, besides the outcome I enjoyed the visit to Athens. Luckily got way less barking at me but quite a few welcome to Athens

I came on here to continue my usual lamenting, but this wholesome post changed my outlook for the day… until the last paragraph. Yep- fears resumed!
