I know I am a die hard fan and have never attended LSU...instead I went straight to the Marine Corps after High School. While stationed in California I became a much bigger fan because it was the only taste of Louisiana sports that I was able to get out there because of CBS(The Saints were never on there unless they were playing the Chargers). Anyone who knows me or meets me understands that I am a die hard and I've been to just about every game since returning home in 2004. Many of my tailgating friends who have graduated from LSU accept me as a "true fan". Since getting out of the Corps I've got my degree online from the University of Phoenix and hopefully one day I'll have the time to go back and get my Masters from LSU then that way there will be no question about it.......

of course.

I almost went to LaTech because I was considering Architecture and at the time they were one of the best Architecture schools in the country.

I'd been born and bred for 18 years into LSU football by then, however. A tiger can't change its stripes.

I wound up going to LSU and I do agree with the dude who said there is an extra special connection if you did attend. Doesn't make you more of a fan, though.

On the flipside, I have a graduate degree from UT-Austin and probably wouldn't pee on Mack Brown if he were on fire.
