I think it shows a lack of education on the part of Memphians and Tiger fans to complain about the SHC considering this issue is not specific to the SHC.

With all due respect I don't think if the U of M owned the Liberty Bowl they could prevent a messy cleanup after a packed football game. If you ever attended a tailgate with over thousands of fans you will understand the amount of trash, debris, and damage that may occur following a massive tailgate. .

I think when you bring up race and the SHC you know where you're going with that so why be the first fan to bring it up. I think you have made your feelings clear regarding the SHC, but I'm not so sure it has to do with preserving the quality of Tiger Lane.

Here's a link to what other Universities most notably Georgia & Auburn deal with following post-game tailgates.

Based on your reasoning these Universities should cancel their games as well. Now that's a reason for me to SMH.

Spray painting asphalt is not normal for any tailgate. Defending that crap is ridiculous.

But it is in timeout so it doesn't count...........

Tiger Lane looked fine to me tonight being that I watched my niece perform for WSHS band. The SHC is one of two times a year the Liberty Bowl sells out, and the U of M never plays in either game. Until the U of M can sell out a stadium or build it's own don't complain about the SHC.

Since you are a seasoned tiger tailgater, are you telling us the area is totally spotless after tiger games?
Tiger lane damaged? Really? chicken bones and grease?
Not defending just asking thats all.

So we shouldn't complain about our (UofM) tailgating area being trashed, just because they bring a big crowd? Nobody is complaining about traffic, it's actual vandalism that pisses most people off.

It does seem to happen after every SHC game. I read about this and see pics every year. Not sure what happens for Liberty Bowls, but it seems guests have no respect for the grounds. Maybe more security (paid by the tenants) or a $100k security deposit will help.

You all are going off someone who probably wanted to start some Sh** on the board. I was just over on Tiger Lane unless I'm blind he is lying.

Some here (i won't call any names) act like they personally invested their own money in building tiger lane.
