Remember a little bit about MLK and RFK's assassinations. I was 6.

If you don't mind spending $40-$50 to park you might want to take Acadian towards campus to LSU Ave and park on one of the streets named after a private school. Really easy getting in and especially back to I-10/12.

What happened in your life to make you such a miserable,cold SOB? Whether you have any sympathy or not is your business. But your determination to make sure everyone here knows what a "bad dude" you are says a lot about you.
Why don't you just pipe down?

I remember the week before on either a punt of kickoff David LaFluer about killed TaBoris Fisher. Fisher acted like he wanted to fight but LaFluer just laughed at him as Fisher's Ole Miss teammates dragged him away.:lol:

That game was exasperating to have attended. Sitting in the upper deck end zone near the top, putting up with annoying, confrontational Gumps and watching Nuss throw 4 yd passes. Awful

The uncomplimentary hand gesture was the following season in the Miami Ohio fiasco.
That 1985 Alabama game was painful. Had it won, 14-7 but they made a 4th and 19 conversion and then did a halfback pass to Mike Shula to make it 14-13. That would have been a great two point play but they kicked to tie.
I think it was Garry James and Dalton Hilliard did some handoff on the kickoff and ran it to at least midfield. LSU moved right down and should have tried for a TD as Alabama was gassed.

Game ended in a 14-14 tie that felt like a loss. Since Alabama kinda dominated every one in the 1970s the losing streak at home to them was really just starting to be a big deal. This was bone crushing.

This was one of the first examples of the power of the Tiger Rant and other associated forums.
There was a "guest" replay official aptly named Dick Burleson who was a retired SEC official. Mr. Burleson is the official if you recall in the 1989 Florida game took it upon himself to add :01 to the clock to enable the Gators to kick the winning field goal.
Here's where that got dicey.Honestly being at the game it was so bang bang at first glance so the initial call is somewhat understandable. But we've all seen the replay and its unforgivable it wasn't over turned. The Monday following the game some folks here did some research about ol' Dick. Turns out Dick had a webpage where he is open to speaking engagments and such and had a standing engagement at the University of Alabama's Red Elephant Club each week. How could the SEC allow such a thing??
Oh,BTW, Dick's website shut down that day.

that happened on this date in 1993. I remember watching Alabama in the warmups and they just seemed like they did not care at all. Flat as a fiddle. We started thinking maybe this won't be so bad afterall. :lol:

Remember, a lot of these people have convinced themselves that Bill Arnsparger strongly suggested Mike Archer to replace him so 3 years later while at Florida, Arnsparger could hire Steve Spurrier.

Well, they beat us in Baton Rouge in 1996, 26-0. The following year in Tuscaloosa LSU won, 27-0 with on and off rain.
For those coming up it is supposed to be really nice Saturday night.
