re: Outrageous moments in Tiger Stadium history?

A lot of these moments occurred in Tiger Stadium and were seen by many. This event was seen by several thousand people and it might have been the earliest recorded STTDB moment.

As a sophomore in 1979 I lived in the East Stadium dorms. It really wasn't that bad - there was no A/C but you got what had been a 4 man room to yourself and could let yourself into the stadium, through well disguised illegal openings, late at night and lay on the grass at the 50 yard line. That grass was so soft! Our rooms overlooked the opposing team entrance. Determined to do something special for the USC game we took three 15 foot long carpet tubes and lashed them together, placed a bucket on the end and covered the whole thing in paper mache and painted it flesh colored. Appropriate, artistic flourishes were added. Two brown paper "Schwegmann" bags were filled with paper, covered with black painted Spanish Moss and attached to the end opposite the bucket. On game day, in full view of the arriving Trojans our prop was poked out of the third floor bathroom window along with a sign - "Suck on this USC!" The campus police discovered our creation long after it caused a major stir. With great difficulty three policemen removed it and carried it to the nearest dumpster. The yearbook staff took pictures of the police toting the huge phallus but sadly they never made it to the yearbook. We all moved on to professional careers and forgot about the episode.

Years later someone mentioned this to me as one of the most unusual and hilarious things they had seen at an LSU game. Imagine their surprise when I told them I had done it.
