Sorry to hear that! (I think I figured out what school you’re talking about…there’s only so many unbeatens left). That’s kind of discouraging when you drive all the way to the away venue and have to leave early.

Yes…a large part of the problem is due to alcohol consumption - tailgating (read: drinking) all day for a night game can get fans pretty rowdy. I guarantee you that the vast majority of incidences like that wouldn’t happen if the fans were sober…I’m not saying that you shouldn’t have fun before the game because tailgating is part of the tradition of college football, but I hate to hear about incidences like this.
