For me….Being an LSU Fan is…
I remember growing up on LSU anything, especially football. My Dad went to LSU and I remember cheering the LSU football team as early as 2 years old. I remember wanting to be a LSU cheerleader. I remember wanting to go to LSU and going meant being a proud LSU student and Fan no matter what. I love tailgating. I graduated in 1993 after seven years.

Now I am still a LSU Fan with LSU all over my house. I also have a few LSU purses, the Chinese Bandits ring tone on my cell, lots and lots of LSU clothes that I wear all the time. My son’s room is done in LSU. And he has lots of LSU clothes. Everyone knows that if you buy me something LSU that is all I need and will be happy with. All my students at school know that I am a true LSU Fanatic come rain or shine.

There is nothing like being a :helmet: fan, I wear purple and gold every day (except on Sundays when I go to church).

Funny thing is, at my church, in Mississippi no less, on Sunday's after a game, there are about 12 people who wear either purple shirts or ties, sometimes with a little gold somewhere in the outfit. We never got together and said, "Hey, lets wear the colors after gamedays!". It just happened. We all noticed it the first time, and it became a tradition. Every now and then, I'll see some knucklehead with a MSU or Ole Miss shirt on in church, and we rebuke him mightily for bringing vulgarity into the church!:lsup:

That is too cool, I found a :lsup: dress one time, and I was gonna get it for church but it was too big. I keep looking for purple dresses and I am gonna get :helmet: embroided on it if I ever find one.

Some times when we lose a game, I will wear black to church, everyone knows that I am in mourning.:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The Gov. · Dec 20, 2006

Hahaha no this isnt Blanco or Jindal. I read in the paper a couple weeks ago that they had a fundraiser in Monroe, LA and one of the prizes was "having dinner with blanco". Well the biding started and a guy yelled out ONE DOLLAR!. Needless to say he won. So a few days later he aplogized to blanco and paid 1,000. So she isnt well liked right now.

I wish the passion I felt for LSU was directed towards something I could control.

This sums it all up to me. Having a strong passion is not a decision I made, but just a feeling that I've had as long as I can remember. By earliest recollections include singing Hey fightin Tigers with my twin sister. I've just always loved LSU with no thought given as to why.

I wear an LSU baseball cap on vacation road trips all over the place and I get asked about it a lot, especially during Skip's championship run in the '90's. He really raised LSU's profile up north and out west where football is not such a passion as in the deep south.

Heather, you're a teacher? I teach 7/8 honors English here in Texas. Currently, I'm bored out of my mind while my poor students are taking district final exams. At least I'm free for a couple of weeks after tomorrow @ 3!

I am a kindergarden teacher, I work at a private kindergarden.

I have posted on here before that I am teaching one of the groups that I work with to say :geauxtige , and I am proud to say that they can all say it. Or at least they are trying to say :geauxtige . They are between 18 months and 2 years old.

And their parents tell me they say it all the time too.

They can learn their abc's and 123's anytime.

I will teach them the more important stuff.
