There's only one game in the history of the Iron Bowl that I've ever heard Alabama fans concede - the 1989 game.
You never hear the typical excuses. You don't hear them say that Bama should have won. And most of them admit that even before the game in 1989, despite Bama having a top ranking, that they had zero chance to win.
And then Auburn won and both Auburn and Alabama fans look back on that crowd and atmosphere and claim that it was one of the loudest, craziest in history.
I found out last night that I'm going to the game. Besides drinking lots of water and alcohol and having lots of throat lozenges on hand, what else do I need to prepare for to ensure that Alabama comes in to the craziest fucking atmosphere they could ever imagine?
