ESPN’s College GameDay visited Columbia for the first time in 10 years on Sept. 14, drawing hundreds of students to camp out at Gamecock Park to attempt to earn a spot in the coveted “pit.” The night started with camping gear, speakers, chairs and food.

The Daily Gamecock’s Editor-in-Chief Kate Robins witnessed as tight crowds formed and people rushed the gates.
