I was wondering how crazy it gets there? I just picked up my student endzone seat and I'm looking for tips :). Do they really load up marshmellows w/ pennies?

so what your saying is go with a more low key look. leave the facepaint at home LOL. Comparing my ticket to their seating chart I'm a little relieved Im near the top of the section so I don't have to worry about things coming down on me from the upper decks hahaha

From what I've heard Wiscy and Penn St are the most dangerous places for opposing fans. I've had relatives that have been chased back to their car in Madison and they were 60 at the time. Asshole fans are out of control.

Everybody has a different experience. I had no problems at Penn State in '07 (but I have seen the beer tossing video).
At Iowa in 2006 the fans in the stands were cool - I think it helped that I knew a lot of things about Nile Kinnick than the people around me didn't - I was asking them Kinnick trivia questions before the game started. :tongue2:
But outside the stadium, before and after the game, some Hawkeye fans would yell and get in the face of Buckeye fans who were just walking down a street or in a parking lot.
I've heard bad things about Wiscy, but in 2008 I didn't see any Buckeye fans having problems. There was definitely a lot of serious drinking going on, but I didn't see anybody seriously hassling Buckeye fans.

...VERY CRAZY. I don't think they load up anymore on marshmellows w/pennies, but definitely plenty of Old Style!osucollegebuck;1790901; said:

In summary, I will never again make the trip to Madison for gameday. Madison itself is a great town, but Camp Randall, no thanks.

Yep! Batteries too. They told us in the locker room when we headed out and back in not to look up at the crowd to prevent anything from getting through your facemask and hitting you in the face. Needless to say, one our guys got hit with a beer bottle! Lots of marshmellows with pennies and nickels were lauched at us. Coming out in the tunnel before the game was something I'll never forget. It was a chain link fence with a canope. Students and fans were bent down to where they could yell, spit and throw anything on us or at us.
Craziest place I've even been!
Their bleachers collapsing during the Michigan game was karma!

you guys are making me want to sell my ticket 
. On the Buckeye Roundtable show I heard Dustin Fox say they were told to keep their helmets on for the whole game because of stuff being thrown at them.

hahaha No im going although I hope my car is still in one piece when I get back and I think I'll be hanging out around the memorial union where the Buckeye Bash is. I feel sorry for anyone bringing their kids to this game.
I do appreciate everyone and their info though!!!!

Did I say I'd never again make the trip to Camp Randall for a game? Never sure is a long time. What I meant was I'd never make the trip unless I have the opportunity to buy a ticket from a fellow B'per.
