Just got back from Mobile and I didn't see any of those.

Thanks for the tip.
Will have to check out when I finally make it back for Mardi Gras.
It's been 12 years since I've been to a parade.

Literally none of those are even remotely funny.

LSU fans have little room to talk. I went to one of the Mardi Gras parades in the Garden District with my brother, sister in law, and little nephews a couple of years ago. Apparently wearing a khaki colored baseball hat with a small Script A hat was enough to enrage the idiots on a couple of floats that threw heavy bags as hard as they could at my head. It would be one thing if I was holding up a sign that had 21-0 or 1/9/12 on it. They risked hitting small children with heavy bags of beads in order to hit someone with a script A hat on.

I guess it beats everything that occupies the minds of Tennesseans: country music, banjos, moonshine, out-houses and wrestling.

It obviously wasn't "small" enough that it couldn't be seen from atop the float.
However. it looks like you learned a valuable lesson that day which is all that matters - "every decision comes with a consequence."
Would I wear a LSU hat on A-Day? Hell no, I wouldn't want a Saban signed infant thrown at me either. It sounds like you got the attention you wanted when you decided to put on the cap in a Louisiana city.
I would have nailed you too tbh

Then you're a complete tool.

Comic Cowboys is a pretty good parade. Know several of their members

You don't know me well then because I'm the antithesis of the guy who goes out of his way to stand out. I' m very low key personality wise and go out of my way not to wear any Bama gear when going to a Bama game at LSU or any other road SEC stadium. I thought a noon Mardi Gras parade with mostly families with small children was a low key laid back environment. It didn't dawn on me until bags of beads were whizzing by my head like an errant fastball that I even had a script A hat on.

You would have no issues from Alabama fans if you showed at Alabama's A-day with an LSU hat on as long as you weren't being belligerent or obnoxious. Outside of the occasional Updyke type fan, Alabama fans are pretty tame.

I'm sorry I lol'd when I read this. I was joking for the most part but a good majority of the guys throwing the beads are wasted & you don't want to give them something to aim for. If you do, they began thinking they're the Mannings Posted on 3/4/14 at 9:30 pm to Govt Tide
I know many of Alabama fans. Three actually came down for MG and stayed with a few of my friends and I. One left his notebook for Dr. Adam Lankford's class in my car and I have to mail it to him before Monday
