The game that got me hooked for life was LSU vs Auburn in 1988. I was seven and already a huge Saints fan. My dad and I were listening to the game in his F-150. It was 6-0 for what seemed like forever, then LSU started driving and I can still remember Hawthorne saying, “LSU is knocking on the door.”

Then, Hodson to Fuller.

Then, a butt puckering extra point attempt.

LSU, 7-6.

I didn’t know about all the Earthquake stuff until I bought a media guide in 1994 or 1995 and there was a feature on it.

Since before I can remember. My first vivid memory was the '95 Auburn game and Troy Twillie's interception. I'll never forget the pandemonium when he intercepted that pass. Right then and there I was hooked.

Occasional game thereafter (notably Nebraska in 1976, USC in 1979, and Bring Back the Magic Game in 1995).

I don't remember which year but it was against Ole Miss. Late 70s or early 80s. My wifes first LSU game was verse Ole Miss in 92 in Jackson. We sucked but she loved the fans and the tailgating

Started going when I was six.

Went to well over 100.

Quit going about 7 years ago and do not plan on going back any time soon.

I'll watch SECWWF on TV.

1962 Tulane at LSU First game attended
We took the Tulane Alumni train from New Orleans to BR and I got picked on the entire trip because I told everyone I was for LSU. It was a rookie mistake. I was 10 years old.

First game in 1974.

Went to LSU in 1986 and went to all the games. Started living in Abu Dhabi in 2002 so now had to travel 8,100 miles for a game or 10,000 miles if I travel home from Thailand, but made the games at Auburn in 2006, 2008 and 2010 plus a few home games like Va Tech 2007.

Was at the 2004 and 2008 National Title games as well the Texas Bowl in Houston a few years ago, so even living far away I still get to see some games once in a while
