From an article in the Daily Mississippian.

Many members of an audience of mostly Ole Miss students, including an estimated 20 Ole Miss football players, openly disrespected and disrupted the Ole Miss theater department’s production of “The Laramie Project” Tuesday night at the Meek Auditorium.
Cast members of the play, which is about an openly gay male who was murdered in Laramie County in Wyoming, said members of the audience became so disruptive at times that they struggled completing the play.
According to the play’s director and theater faculty member Rory Ledbetter, some audience members used derogatory slurs like “fig” and heckled both cast members and the characters they were portraying for their body types and sexual orientations. Ledbetter said the audience’s reactions included “borderline hate speech.”

Estimated? No names? The only good part of the DM was the crossword and they didn't even do a good job of that.

They should probably be working on that offense and not attending gay plays if you ask me.
also we play you guys next... way to piss off the gay crowd. A&M by 30.

Will be some interesting questions from the media for Hugh about this I'm sure.

Does the play point out the person murdered was involved in a drug deal gone bad, and was not killed because of his sexual orientation?

Well, obviously they should be suspended from the game this week.

Thanks for letting us know this. I am appalled, because I know that none of the rest of our athletic programs have players who would disrespect alternative lifestyles.
