The Official Ole Miss Roll Call

I have 2 extra tickets in Sec 103, Row 38, Seats 18 & 19. I paid $60 a piece for them. I am willing to get rid of them for the same price. I had one person respond earlier saying they might be interested. I will give them until tomorrow to let me know, but if they do not want them or I do not hear back by then, I will make them available to the next person.

I have been to a game at every SEC venue wearing orange and I would say Oxford is probably the best place I have visited.

I have never been to Oxford, even though I live in Memphis. Hoping to make it Saturday if one of my ticket connections comes through. But I have been to several other SEC venues, as well as a couple of non-conference venues. It would never occur to me to NOT wear my Orange.

Then again, I don't talk smack when visiting and try to resist being provoked by the occasional jerk.

After the Alabama game my son and I got a lot of back slaps and hand shakes even though we were the only Orange within 1/4 mile in our section. Of course, they were especially gracious, having just barely survived that game.

I have found that if you are polite, maybe show some interest in whatever traditions are important to them, then you can wear your Orange and even cheer for your team without any problems. I love the Vols but I try to show some respect when I am a guest in another team's stadium.

Likewise, in my season ticket section in Neyland, we self-police any Vol fans who don't treat visitors with courtesy.

Might seem contrite to some of you. But that's just how my Dad raised me when it comes to college football.

Thank you for being a class act. Our fan base has always been a source of pride for me. I know we have our shair of d-bag fans, but the small amount I have seen have been few and far between

We went to the last UT/OM game a few years ago. Yes, it lives up to the hype. Great gameday atmosphere!

I agree with the showing visiting fans respect. However, I was in the Bama student section and got quite a different response than handshakes and pats on the back..

We'll be in section S, row 19. Can't wait, first trip to Oxford. I was Smokey in 1979-1980, and we played them in Jackson.

On another note, anyone know where/when the team will arrive at the stadium? We always see other fans waiting for their teams at Neyland, and we wanted to do that at OM.

Thanks!

In the Grove, you'll see of the hottest looking scenery of any school in the SEC. But, be warned: lots of makeup and lots of boob jobs, not that I'm complaining too much. Those Ole Miss chicks spend a lot of money to look good, which is always a positive.

Get there as early as possible. Parking will be a pain and Hwy 6 and Hwy 7 will be jammed with the early starting time.

Does anyone know a good time to leave Memphis in order to park and tailgate before the game?

Thanks man, much appreciated! What about a good place to eat and have a few beers before the game?

I had a business dinner last night I was kind of dreading. The folks turned out to be pretty cool and I wound up enjoying it. As it turns out, one of the guys played football at UCLA. We were talking a lot of football and I mentioned I was having a hard time finding tickets to the Ole Miss game. He said he had a connection at UCLA who might could help.

Just got an e-mail and I scored 4 box seats!
