Been a fan since the Fall of '67. Saw the light as an 11 year old, despite having Bammer parents.

My grandfather went to undergrad at LSU, graduated and left to go kill Nazi's, came back to get his Master's degree.
My mom, aunt, uncle, sister and I graduated from LSU. I loved LSU because I didn't know better. Today, I'm glad I didn't know who Curley Hallman was while I was dressing up as an LSU football player for Halloween all those years.
When I finally started paying attention when I was 9 years old, I went to my first real game. Kevin Faulk was a freshman. Never loved someone I didn't know before I heard about Kevin Faulk.
I'm as real of an LSU fan as it gets

You know someone has little brother syndrome when theyre so obsessed with the other team that they make a logo involving said team.
That is an interesting theory, so I tested it. Turns out it is pretty easy to do that in photoshop, so easy I bet a Vandy grad could crap it out. To prove that I did go through with this and I didn't find the image I made the least believable shop I could- an anti-MSU one (no offense dogs):

Not that hard.

Slightly off topic, but question: is that kind of a generational thing?
Yes. And woo pig is straight up SWC, so there are commonalities I'm sure.
Kids these days like to go "OWWWWWwoooooooo" and woop and do other weird shite. You know, we like it to be just regular old "normal" yelling of WOOOOOOOOOO..... PIG! Sooie!" Like normal people.
Fight song lyrics are "give a cheer, rah rah, never fear, rah rah" but it seems like with the Millennials it got changed to "Go Hogs" instead of "rah rah". Millennials and non-alum. It annoys me, but I'm normal. I like songs to be sung how they are written. There are also three "A"s in the last line, but the kids these days only sing 2 As.
This below is the proper singing. It's all kinds of fuxxored now.

Wasn't really talking or aiming that towards you. I'm just saying in my limited interaction on twitter when you pull up many vandy fans profiles they're filled with Tennessee related pics. And if I was a vandy fan I'd be embarrassed to use that logo because it does shout "insecure little brother"

It's a jacked up world.
Grew up on OM fan and attended many games early on.
Moved to S. FL and grad HS - then went to UF and graduated.
Transferred to MSU and graduated with an MBA.
Almost went to OM for my MBA, but they didn't have an accredited graduate program for my fiancee' at the time, so MSU it was -- glad for it today!
Now pull equally for UF and MSU... except I don't call myself "GatorDawg" on here...

Remember pulling for them when I was a young boy... Went to AU on my parent's dime, party, flunked out... Matured, went to UAB on my dime... Good times!
...didn't attend one UAB football in 4 years.

Someone needs to add the tri star logo to that Vandy anchor down.
It suits them well

My freshman year, our pledge trainer taught my pledge class the fight song with the lyrics "give a cheer, rah rah, drink a beer, rah rah." I've never been able to sing it any other way and it always throws me off when I hear "never fear."

Bout to graduate. I'm in my last class right now. This time next month I'll be an Ole Miss Alumn.

Pop's family has been going to Alabama for quite a long time. He and his father are boosters. They took me to every home game and most away games as a kid. Got to eat and meet with the coaching staffs several times growing up. Went to Tuscaloosa for two years before having an existential psychedelic trip that sent me on another two year adventure around the country. Finished college elsewhere, but I'll always be a Gump. I'm about to move back to God's Country, though, and I'm tempted to get a second degree at UA.

Grew up a UF fan. First game I was 5 months old in 1987. Grandparents had a RV and we made every home game as a nice large group. Then come college time went to OM. Lived in Mississippi and not good enough grades to go to UF.

I've just always enjoyed throwing Lemon Chill lids.
