re: Former LSU QB Buddy Lee Died

TigerTreyjpg hit a nerve. When I was a small boy we did not have a radio or TV but Dad would sometimes let us sit in his car and listen to either KWKH in Shreveport or WWL New Orleans I think it was and hear the Tigers.

I well remember the Halloween night of Billy Cannon's return vs. Ole Miss. We were traveling to my grandmother's in NW LA and we stopped at a cafe/truck stop in Armistead, LA, Red River Parish, just over on the west side of Red River from Coushatta. Daddy always stopped there and got coffee to go.

We had just pulled up for him to go in when Ole Miss punted. We all sat there glued to the radio and 'heard' the return. Crowd noise was pretty loud but we knew something good was happening.

I will never forget one of John Ferguson's famous sayings from time to time, "LSU jumped over a snake on that one".
