Random thoughts as the season approaches...

-- It would be a lot cooler if we wore the gold jerseys and white helmets instead of the purple jerseys for one non-conference game this year.

-- Your chances of sneaking whiskey into the stadium increase 75% if you are not entering through the student section gate.

-- Ordering a sausage po-boy and having them add nacho cheese to it is secretly the most delicious concession stand item in Tiger Stadium.

-- As long as there is a player from Breaux Bridge on the roster, he should have to wear the number 31.

-- If Les wins a national or SEC championship this year, will the riding-high baseball cap style catch on in Baton Rouge like the Saban-inspired sweater vest trend?

-- There is something a little creepy about grown men standing in line at Fan Day for autographs from 18-21 year-olds. Of course, disregard if you are in line with your kid.

-- The over/under for the amount of times broadcast crews reference Herman Johnson as the biggest baby born in the state of Louisiana this season is set at 2,135.

-- It WILL rain in Tiger Stadium in 2007, and I do not mean in the Pacman Jones sense of the word.

 

The first random though is terrible.
I agree with everything else.

 

Over and NEVER

 

---we seem to be in the minority on people who liked this look. if anything if will give me another uni to put LSU in when i play NCAA 09.

---in my five years at LSU '94-'99, i never once tried to sneak in alcohol. my little rule is nothing is worth getting kicked out of tiger stadium. however, this rule didn't mention anything about having a friend do the sneaking in for you.

---i have to try the cheese on top of the po boy thing. my arteries have been bad and they need to be punished.

---done, breaux bridge = #31. can we put carencro players mandatorily in #3?

---I don't think it will catch on as much as it will be the houndstooth and fedora of the new milennium. ok, maybe that's a little much.

---agreed, but how many of those creepy guys are cashing in on a jamarcus russell autograph right about now? no, seiously how many, i know nothing about sports collectibles.

---It might surpass the mark set in '03 by announcers announcing the fact that UGA's David Greene and David Pollack played pee wee football together.
Also, i'd like a line for how many different synonyms of the word "fast" is used in conjuction with the mention of Trindon Holliday.

---It never rains in Tiger Stadium, well at least not in the PA announcing booth.

 

Dunno, kinda liked it. I loved those golden jerseys and white helmets, they looked really cool.

 

Please stop posting pictures of that SMUT! I have young impressionable churdren!

 

please say it isnt so.

what's really creepy is the grown men that use the kids as an excuse. "Um, can you sign that to James Melancon Sr" (no offense intended to any james melancon srs that may be watching)

 

It never rains in Tiger Stadium :hihi: . This is coming from a band member who was in the tunnel and soaked in the 100% humidity of the OSU 04 game. I also was standing next to Mr. Wickes when he said "Whoever said it doesn't rain in Tiger Stadium is full of ****!"

 

I was there too and there's 3 thoughts to keep in mind.

1) That storm was just God's way of making sure that ended up a night game.

2) It didn't actually rain in Tiger Stadium.. It rained outside the stadium and was blown in by the wind. :hihi:

3) That day was the best and largest impromptu wet t-shirt contest I ever saw. :thumb:
