SBNation article

quote:

Texas A&M Men’s Basketball hosts LSU tonight, and some PR gurus decided to make this a MARDI GRAS-THEMED EVENT even though it’s not quite February 28th yet. Because LSU is from Louisiana, you see.



The diligent citizens of Twitter were quick to point out that this is not actually a King Cake. A quick Google search confirms that yep, this doesn’t look anything like one

...

The account has since deleted the tweet and replaced the description with “Mardi Gras Cake” which is about as bland a description as the cake in the picture warrants. Apologies to all our Internet pals, especially ATVS. We had nothing to do with it.

sorry if germans... I looked

We aren't completely familiar with all your surrender monkey cultural traditions. Get over it.

So your instinct was to add butter cream and make it fabulous.

As a Louisiana boy who lives in Texas I can tell you the people here have no clue what a King Cake is. Their "king cakes" you buy at the store don't look like the one in OP, but they do have fricking colored SPRINKLES instead of icing like a proper king cake.

For the longest time I had family members ship me king cakes yearly for this reason.

I'd rather be a surrender monkey, than lose to the surrender monkeys - 6 times in a row.

that's a little known aTm traditional King Cake.

Find the plastic penis and you have to buy the next cake.

The joke is that there's a plastic penis in every bite!

Funny that LSU fans are extremely upset because a colorful cake was misidentified


Now that seems gay

I've had both, to me that is also a king cake.
