I did go to a night game and it was awesome!! It was Kent State a few years ago; I'm planning to go back there in the next couple of years, b/c it wasn't an SEC game so I didn't get the full experience.
That being said, I loved it so much, the tailgating/people who just invited you in, food, the walk down the hill, the game... in Death Valley.
I did miss Mike though and they didn't bring him inside for that game either. I've been to a few games out here in CA and it doesn't even come close to the crazy awesomeness of out there.
