I'm going to start reading the Daily Mississippian every day. This stuff is priceless. http://www.thedmonline.com/vnews/display.v/ART/2003/11/21/3fbddfcb2c06a LETTER - Please keep LSU fans out of the Grove by Peter John November 21, 2003 Dear Editor, The rumor around Baton Rouge these days is that the thousands of LSU fans coming to Oxford this weekend are going to try and take over the Grove Friday night and early Saturday morning. Since the university has never been able to set, and enforce, an opening time for the Grove, then it is up to the UPD, OPD, MHP, Cobra Security and any other security outfit that they have to ensure that this does not happen. I know the Grove is a public place and anyone is welcome, but if our security force allows LSU people to go in and put tents up in places that Ole Miss fans have been in for years, then it will be sad. I know the security forces are focusing on how to control the crowd before, during, and after the game, but your first goal needs to be to keep them out of the Grove. If they are in there, then there is no telling what will happen early and throughout the day. Please, for once, do something good for the university, its students and its fans!

I could not agree any more with the statement he said about the stadium should be Hell on earth. I just wish that could happen. But it's not going to happen unless the powers to be move the hated Tiger band away from the Ole Miss student section. It's bad enough we can't hear our own band play during games, but to listen to the opposing teams band is even worse. Here is what I say we should do. Move our band down closer to the students so we can be even loader and even more intimidating than ever before. I plead to my fellow students to arrive at the game early and start making noise as soon as you get there. We need to be the louder than ever and show 100 percent support for the football team. We need to scream at the top of our lungs, and there should be no reason not to. We have all of Thanksgiving break to recover. So "Hotty Toddy," and "Geaux to Hell, LSU. Geaux to Hell!" James "JOJO" Martin junior business management major
They are so worried about that damn Grove. I hope we take it over and then we beat the hell out of Eli and his Hotty Toddy friends.
sound nervous don't they??? Have you listened to MS Sports this morning this week? The hosts( Chuck Stinson) picked the webels to win. All the ole piss fans have been calling all week declaring victory. I really hope we whip the crap outta them and it is never close. Last time I went to VH for a game, LSU won 20-9 in 2000. With 5 minutes to go, all that was left were tiger fans. Boy, I'd love to see a repeat of that....only with the webel fans leaving with 10 minutes to go.......in the third!
I find it strange that I heard a lot of talk and saw lots of ole miss flags on cars las week before we played Bama. This week, I have seen very few ole miss flags (I have seen more LSU to be honest) and the talk I have heard doesn't sound nearly as confident as last week. I think they were counting on Bama to take care of business for them, and it didn't happen. The time for talk is over, it's a few short hours until gameday. That 2,000 lb. gorilla, as one Bama fan put it last week, is about to head up I-55 to Oxford. You have your big game you've been wanting for so long, rebel fans. Be careful what you wish for, you're about to get it.
Excuses Already Starting for the Old Pissers I told ya'll earlier. The excuses are already starting. Now, they're going to use the excuse that their "fans" couldn't get up for the game because those damn Cajuns took our favorite tailgating spot.
Its funny that they think that moving thier band to a different spot is going to make thier stadium anymore "intimidating". Give me a break. I'm sure that the Tigers would be quaking in thier boots from the sound of 50,000 fans + a band....
I found this funny How in the hell do you get loader. I heard of getting louder but not loader. It must be a Missippi thing.
