The only problem: there's no jesting reference to corn dogs or stadium turf on the LSU page, and that is a shame.

I'll never understand the corn dog reference. You'd think that LSU fans would smell like something a little more cajun or something.

no they were too fricking stupid to think of it on their own. They had to steal it from a big 12 school when referencing Nebraska.

This never "corn dog" shtick bothers me because its a rip off, as well as being insanely retarded.

I've tried to find the Nebraska Corn Dog reference...but I have failed. I eventually thought that was made up too

nothing says funny like a worn out joke stolen from Iowa touted by a fan base that can't even decide on a mascot.

Corn Dog back story

There's also a bunch of discussions about the original Rivals post that the Auburn guy made, but I think the reference goes back further than Rivals...so that is a little unclear.

Bottom line is I have been trying to get the Bama Hippie thing to stick for a while unsuccessfully as you can tell. It would provide the same kind of confusion for their fanbase as this does to ours.

Oklahoma jab at Nebraska back in the day. Corn dogs happen to be illegal in Louisiana.

When the wind blows in from the north east, the north side of campus, especially near the new Band Hall, Hart Lot, and the Enchanted Forest, smells like corn dogs thanks to the Wienerschnitzel on Highland Road. Also, many LSU tailgaters fry foods at their tailgates (especially fish and shrimp). Most people outside of Louisiana only associate fried foods with KFC, corndogs, or funnel cake. Saying "you smell like KFC" seems like a jab more suited for Wildcat fans, and "you smell like funnel cakes" sounds like the weirdest and most diabetic complement in the world. So, they settled on "you smell like corn dogs". That, and they stole it from the Big 12 since they're not even creative enoughto come up with their own nonsensical insults.

Im proud of the corndog bullshite. Its like, the rest of the country has nothing to pick on LSU for so they make something up and corndogs is the best they can do.

If you're not being made fun of, then you're not relevant.

I think it is because we fry so much and that is the only reference they have to fried food.
