Class of '76, I watched almost all of the games from the tracks, it was a ball! Couldn't afford buying beer in the stadium and we could carry a case of beer in a cooler and use it as a seat, terrific. If you got there early enough you could sit on the tracks, which I preferred over trying to balance on the side of the slope. I was there one time when a train came and they were warned ahead of time because they approached slowly. No one would move so they just stopped and watched the end of the game with us. In spite of some legends, I don't recall many fights at all, just a lot of happy , heavily drinking people watching the game. I do remember a time when a car of fans from the opposing team drove by and yelled obscenities at us. Bad move. Before they escaped, their car must have been hit by 50 beer bottles!
I have a lot of great memories from UGA and a LOT of them are from those stupid tracks!
