I would concur on the Memphis game.......Hottest I've ever been in my life........Freaking miserable....I was in Tuscaloosa in '97 and we beat Bama's ass in the rain and sleet that day.......The weather was miserable but I enjoyed every damn minute of it.......
Memphis '00 - had just spent a week at the in-laws in Missouri, and was catching the game on our drive back. Me, our 1 year old, and my wife who was 5 months pregnant. That, was a dumb decision.
South Alabama game '16 is a close second. We left Orlando the Thursday night before after a HS football game - and drove smack thru a Cat 1 Hurricane. Then had to sit thru that heat and watch that shit show.
Snow Bowl.
2019 USM game was atrocious, our game ops crew having maybe its worst games ever only poured gas on the fire.
@Memphis 2000
Liberty Bowl 07
@South Alabama 14
@Arky 15
Arkansas 2000. We lost in overtime in the sleet and rain.
MSU vs Memphis at the Liberty bowl in 86 timeframe - IIRC. The heavens, we're talking biblical proportions :o, opened up and there was literally a waterfall pouring down the stadium steps.
For about 15 minutes against Auburn in 14 it was doing this exact same thing.Quote:

State-Ole Miss game, in Starkville, Nov. 1967. May have been Thanksgiving Day, but not sure. 🤔
Storms & torrential rain during the game, but they kept playing. And, we never left out seats. Cheerleaders were jumping around in water over 6? deep, on the track, in front of the stands. After the game, we found out there had been tornado warnings in the area. Hahaha! Good memories!
Arky 2000 because we lost. I remember be furious after that game
07 Liberty Bowl was miserable
An underrated one was I believe LSU 2005 to open the season on Thursday night. The 45-0 6 interception game. It was 90-95 degrees outside and rained on and off about 9 or 10 separate times. Humidity was horrible. I sweat through my band uniform more than any other game I can remember.
This is the answer for me. As I recall the cold was expected, but I think the sleet was somewhat of a surprise based on the forecast because there were a lot of people like me without a poncho that we're walking out of there with numb legs and a solid sheet of ice on the tops of their jeans.Quote:

Another for me was 2000 egg. Sat in the rain in Oxford. We blew a big lead and lost. Have never been back and will never go back.
Arkansas 2000
Troy 2001
2001, I think it may have been Troy, there was a serious tornado threat in the middle of the 3rd quarter. They emptied the stadium.
Tie - 9/17/83 vs. Navy in Jackson; game played in the middle of a hurricane, torrential rain and winds.Quote:

Hottest I've ever been in my life until that beautiful thunderstorm in the 4th quarter!!!
2019 against the mustard buzzards! Surface of the sun hot..... but the walk back to the Vet School parking lot made it even worse! Soaked to my underwear..... not that anyone needed to know that! :)
Yep. By the end of the game the end zone resembled a small pond. Oh yeah, we lost that game 21-9Quote:
