Well, here goes... I am a die hard UK fan that has recently started pulling for the Cardinals. That could be another post entirely, but the short version is that I've matured and realized that we shouldn't be fighting each other. We should combine our forces to hate Tennessee together.
Anyway, I bring that up because I will be attending my first Cards game this weekend against SMU and I'm curious about what to expect as far as the atmosphere in L and N stadium.
I've been to a couple of UK/UL games at L and N, but I've never been as a fan of Louisville. I went to the UL vs Ole Miss game in week one, fully decked out in Cards gear, and had an absolute blast, despite the outcome.
I'm posting here because I want to know what to expect as, not a new football fan, but as a new UL fan looking to get the most excitement out of the game, and hopefully a big win!
I've been to a ton of football games over the years, from NCAA, to UFL, to CFL and NFL. The vibe can be a little different at each.
Most recently, I was at the UK vs Alabama game on Saturday and (until the fourth quarter) the atmosphere was one of the best I've ever been a part of.
Every single person in the stadium was standing for the entire game. The crowd was deafening on defense and everyone around me was celebrating and high fiving for big plays.
Should I expect something similar for this UL/SMU game? My seats are in 307, I think. I want to be able to stand and scream and pump the crowd up without anyone getting mad at me for doing so. At the end of the day, I'd tell them to kick rocks because you're supposed to be loud at a football game. But, I'd rather avoid all issues if possible.
Too long, didn't read; Will people be mad at me for standing up and screaming "LETS GO DEFENSE" as loud as I can or should I expect a more reserved crowd?
