corndogs were originally called gruausaucisse (Cajun for gritssausage.) Acadian children mispronounced saucisse as chien(dog) and gruauchien was adopted.
Les Acadians brought the sausage from Canada (mid 1700's) and the Louisiana native Americans introduced them to corn and grits.
It was during a friendly scrimmage in 1760 btw the futball loving les Acadians and the Lacrosse loving Attackapas Tribe (possibly the first true American Style Football Game (lasting two days.)
at this first football (w/ passing) that the combination of grits and sausage first came together. It was just an easier way for both fans to enjoy their concessions. the sausage was dropped into the boiling grits and out came the gruauchien. they used real tree stick for sticks(fr- coller!).
This field of play is now across the road from the original campus of lsu in central Louisiana. it is the ten acre field now occupied by the vetrans administration hospital in Pineville.
gruauchien were a combination of Acadian and Native American cuisine artistry of the 1700's.
texas was the first state to steal the combination and call them corndogs b/c they couldn't speak French/acadian.
then it spread to the rest of the uneducated world and a lot of lsu fans just gave up the name gruauchien b/c the rest of the world was too dumb to get it.
gruauchien were the first concessions sold at the early lsu games. it was not until the 70's that gruaualligator became popular.
historical statistics lead to the conclusion that the game ended in a tie because both teams forgot to hire a scorer.

I don't know what is more delicious, corn dogs or the sweet nectar of an ignorant, pissed off Gump talking trash after a loss. Yum yum yum yum

Exactly. They smell boiling oil and they immediately it associate with the state fair, and corn dogs, because that's all those culinary savages know.
Fried turkeys, shrimp, oysters, fish, etc, does not occur to them.
Tailgating food for those retards is some Oscar Myer weenies on a George Foreman grill.

This is awesome, true or false!

The beauty of the 'insult' is that it is senseless, therefore impossible to rationally oppose.
I got the corn dog treatment at Music Midtown last week. Me, "no, that smell is boudin".
Since the auburn fans were ignorant to boudin, it quieted them up.
It's not my fault they don't know the diff between the aroma of corn dogs & boudin.

Surely false, but still awesome.

It's a good way to rile up LSU fans, they say we smell like them.
I still don't understand how gumbo, jambalaya, etc smells like corndogs.

What is a corndog?

We should just annoy anyone that calls us corndog by embracing it and turning it into a positive thing. We should make "Corndog Power" T-shirts or something. lol

Nobody does. Opponents think it bothers us.

It started on the Auburn boards right after the 2001 game where LSU spanked them on their way to the SEC title. Strangely enough, that's when all of the Tiger Stadium horror stories started with them as well. I think that they just took Saban and LSU dominating them personally.

Does anyone actually eat corn dogs around here?
I haven't seen one since I was a kid, but I'd be down to eating one if given the opportunity. If this LSU fans are corndogs thing ever takes off, maybe you'll start seeing them at tailgates.
