I remember that, my grandpa took me to that game. It was the 2005 Auburn game and a bunch of black people protested the purple and gold confederate flag down victory hill a few hours before the game


Protesting the confederate battle flag is dumb. LSU wouldn't let us put it on fraternity shirts, so we used the actual flag of the CSA and they didn't say a peep. People these days are such fricking lemmings they don't even do research and have any idea what this flag means.

Technically though, that was the first CSA national flag. The next 2 did feature the battle flag (the one everyone thinks is the national flag) on them in the upper left corner. Thus spoke Wikipedia.

I had an ancestor fight and die on the CSA side, so that stuff is interesting to read about. I swear I'm not racist though.
