About how great it was to see a full stadium at our game today. 99% of the replies were people around the nation they don't live here and enjoy us living life again. Some great pub for the university and state. And no, Scooba, I have no idea how to embed a tweet while on my phone.

Dudy Noble is quickly becoming the Tiger Stadium of SEC baseball.
Something has happened to MSU baseball fans since the new stadium opened in that the place is far more intense than before. In the old stadium, it wasn't all that loud & Dudy Noble was known for the LFL, food, & a laid back atmosphere. Now, the place has taken the next step & become absolute Broadway for college baseball. The electricity that flows through that place is every bit to college baseball what Tiger Stadium at night is to college football.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that in the old days a lot of the fans were not really in the grandstand and a lot of people were in the bleachers. The fans are way more concentrated now and we have more people in the grandstand seats. There's also a lot more concrete in the outfield than before and that causes sound to bounce off of it making it louder than our old rigs.Quote:

Even the OM fans there and staff said if they had 11k against arky we had 14k Friday
An ole miss fan told me Friday night he was listening to the Ole Miss radio broadcast when they announced 10,300 or whatever it was. The ole miss announces said no way, and said it is as if MSU must have just stopped counting at that number and didn't want to count the rest.Quote:

Y'all see where manerie (sp??) is crying about the Tennessee baseball fans? That guy.......
Him, bianco, and o'sulivan are all the biggest cry babies.Quote:

Friday night, about a dozen nerdy ole miss students were standing in the section I seat in but at the ramp where you go up the steps. They yelling a whippy "throw it in the dirt...Dirt" chat. But someone must have got security to get them to move as they were blocking the enter exit ramp. The Msu crowd was getting on them somewhat before they were asked to leave. My point is they are young, stupid, dumb, crazy or what ever because things were about to get out of hand, the song "I ain't as good as I once was, but....." was about to happen. LOL!
Love baseball and getting on players good or bad is just part of the game. Just don't do stupid, LOL!

I can't remember which mlb outfielder was telling a story about the fans in philly. They were calling his wife a wh*** and telling him all the things she was doing with other guys, etc..he said I just laughed to myself cause I ain't even married!Quote:

Maybe Ole Miss is lying about how many they have at their games? That's highly likely knowing them. That or the scanners aren't picking up every ticket and we're not counting the people in the lofts or something.Quote:

To me it doesn't look like his foot was on second base. I have watched it several times. I thought the same yesterday watching it on tv.
It could cause other problems. Like fire codes and stuff. There is a shit load of people there, everyone knows no other schools packs stadium like that, so let them keep guessing.Quote:
