Why the hell are you apologizing to visiting fans for the student sections behavior? Ive never heard one visiting fan complain about our student section. Just our own fans.


Secondly, as an alum, its not my position to tell LSU how to run its events. If you are gonna get offended by profanity at football games, just dont go. Its quite simple. Things only offend you if you let them. Its a choice.

Finally, lol, at comparing cursing to robbing a bank. One is illegal, the other is frowned upon by parents who think their kids wont ever curse.

On top of that, if you are gonna complain about profanity, start with the 55 year olds cursing after a bad play in each section.

Part of me wants to believe if Les and players did an education campaign around the school about traditions lost, that the students could respect that. They could have events or yell camps with the students and get the world out that they care about lsu traditions and hate to see them go, and ask for help in being able to play tiger classics.

But the realist in me, understands college kids are by nature rebellious and don't have much respect yet for classic experiences like tiger stadium rocking to the band playing the best songs ever.

Tiger Rag, oh we oh, Neck are all such great songs that make tiger stadium so unique and fun. It sad they don't play them any more.

Unless the visiting fans are on the north side they're not hearing it. MOST are in the south endzone or upper decks.

All it would take is a page from the 2001 Sugar Bowl where the ref brought a mic over to Saban and he asked the students to stop throwing cups onto the field. If Miles did that it would be over. Nobody has publicly asked them to stop yet so they haven't.


Really, Clark?

I want the players focusing on the game, not what the students are doing.

No but I heard Brown say "stop throwing things Onto the court" ... At LSU from 1988 / 1991. He did indeed grab the microphone a couple of times and ask the fans/students to "behave".

And yes i Was there in person. Fans/students obliged.
