How did LSU ever disrespect him?
When Tom Petty died, LSU was Florida’s next home game opponent. They planned a Tom Petty tribute after the 3Q. LSU’s band was informed of this, and LSU’s band said we play this song as soon as the 3Q ends and it lasts this long. UF admin said “no problem, play your song, we’ll start the tribute as soon as you finish.”
When the big moment came, LSU’s band was playing its usual song at the end of the 3Q but someone in the UF pressbox started the Tom Petty tribute to early. In true rock n roll fashion, LSU’s marching band refused to yield. What followed was some epic video caught and shared on twitter of many toothless, methhead, jort wearing Florida fans yelling at the LSU band while many in the stadium booed LSU’s band.
Full video, but there is better footage from the LSU side

That's awesome. We have our tradition and yall made one up after an addict died of and overdose. We can both do them at the same time. It's fine with us.
