Players do it. Past players do it.

I’m ok with it.

Yes. As a kid who grew up in the 90’s/early 2000’s, it reminds of the snotty girls who held up the “L” hand signal while calling someone a loser.

For me it’s just does literally everything in life need to be branded? It seems too forced and awkward for the sake of branding Lsu

The only thing that bothers me about it is when players throw it up in the wrong direction and show a J.

It’s as much of a tradition as Tom Petty day.

The first person I saw throw up the L was Joey B. So I love it.

If the “L” being considered a good thing now blows your mind, don’t go reading the urban dictionary listings.

I don’t like it either. It’s as if we were jealous of Texas having a hand gesture representing their school so we had to make up one. A bunch of other schools did the same thing and we are just another one of them. It indicates “follower” not “leader”.

I wasn't thrilled with it when it first started, but now that it's more universally accepted and associated with LSU rather than "loser" I'm fine with it.

The L goes back to the oline in the Miles days early 2000s. Thrown an L means LSU.

The L on your forehead means loser.

Know the difference

Let me guess…

“Back in my day we didn’t have L’s and we liked it that way!”
