Did you not read the linked article?

I'll quote it for you:

quote:

LSU: Tiger Stadium was allegedly called “Deaf Valley” because of the stadium’s deafening noise but, as former LSU sports information director Bud Johnson told The Advocate, morphed into “Death Valley” after LSU and Clemson played each other in the 1959 Sugar Bowl.


LSU won the game, 7-0, and won the national championship - thereby winning the rights to the name.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

It's been done.
