Thank you Jim Hawthorne!


He'll be the Voice of the Tigers for me for the rest of my life.
Grew up on Saturday nights listening.


Thanks for the memories Jim.

Been a great ride in many sports with Jim at the helm. So many incredible moments.

The Warren Morris home run is probably my favorite call of all time, and I'm not even much of a baseball fan.

There never again be so many misspoken things again in Tiger Stadium! Between Les and Hawthorne they may set a record tonight!

A shame this has to be shoved to the side.

Jim deserves better.

Frigging bump!

When we didnt have cable and LSU football was on TV a couple times a year, Hawthorne was the man.

Only old timers give respect.

Such a sad statement about the rant.

That's because those of us who couldn't travel for every game spent Saturday nights by the radio listening to Hawthorne. There are certain miserable people who bitch about everything, and take things for granted.

Grew up listening to Fergeson, but loved Hawthorn as well. Will miss the
Voice of the Tigers.

Fergeson will always be the voice of the Tigers to me as well.

But props to Hawthorne. Will miss him.

I'm gonna miss him so much. He's been the voice of the Tigers as long as I've been alive, it's hard to imagine listening to lsu sports without him.

You hear Hawthorne and you think LSU. That's it.

Thanks Jim, enjoy retirement!
