Doubletree across the street from The Peabody and Auto Zone Park. Walk to Beale Street. Take a Back Beat tour with Memphis Jones. See the Gibson guitar factory. The Underground Railroad Museum is a real gem.

Thanks for the correction. A loose ball that touches anything out of bounds is dead. If a player with the ball touches anything out of bounds, other than another player or an official, the ball is dead.

By definition, a one point try is a field goal, but only counts one point. A "two point conversion" is, by definition, a touchdown. But it only counts two points. The terms "extra point", "two point conversion", "forward lateral", "lateral", and many other commonly used terms do not appear in the rule book.

A loose ball that touches anything out of bounds is dead. The goal post is out of bounds. An exception to this rule states that a try or field goal that hits the goal post and still goes through is successful. FYI - I officiated football for 25 years.

When a new child comes into the world, earlier generations are given the task of passing on important values that define the past and project the future. On the Saturday of the WKU game, as my grandaughter and I were riding to the game, she asked if I had my LSU CD in the truck. She told me, "We need to listen to that!" Later, at Tiger Stadium, the GBFTL was lined up in the South end zone. As the drum major stepped out of the formation, she looked up at me and said, "This is the part that gives me the chills." Mission accomplished.
The 40 Watt Club - great music venue.
I went to the 1997 Sugar Bowl (Florida vs. Florida State) in purple and gold. I had a Florida fan stop me to tell me what a great baseball team we had. And, yes, I pulled for the Gators!
I have found that the traffic is worse when people leave early. When everyone stays until the end, traffic seems to flow better. Don't ask me why?
Yes - all persons entering the stadium need a ticket. Sorry!

If I remember correctly, it went like this:
They were filming "Everybody's All-American" during the season. Several times during actual season, scenes for the movie were filmed before the real games and during halftime. The fictitious school in the film was the University of Louisiana. The state outline was the logo used for "UL". After filming was finished, instead of repainting the field, the "LSU" was just added.

I've been to Omaha (2000) and saw out Tigers win it. I met many Nebraskans that were pulling for the Tigers. It's become common knowledge that the people up there love to see the Tigers come to town. I am wondering if Tiger fans would "adopt" a team from another part of the country to support in an event such as the CWS. Comments?
We are going up Wednesday. Sunday morning we are taking a Victoria Clipper on a three day Pueget Sound cruise. Sunday to Victoria, Monday to Friday Harbor and Tuesday seaplane back to Seattle. I don't think that Seattle realizes what is coming.

We went to Omaha in 2000. I know that was awhile ago, but we were there ten days and found NO good food. The best we had was at a Chili's one night. They have no clue! Great people, though. And what an event! Just bring your coffee and your Tony's.
