Have you ever really met a guy from Louisiana that didnt have a nickname? I guess it's just a cultural thing so it carried over to football too. I call more of my friends by their nicknames than there regular name.

Why do Alabama fans have an obsession with:

1) killing trees
2) team-related tattoos
3) tee shirts for every little thing
4) pom poms
5) greasy, under seasoned food

TIA

It's a cultural thing, we give everybody nicknames, just ask Poo Poo Broussard:
