Living in Michigan and watched LSU beat ND 28-8 in 1971. Saw how the crowd reacted and was hooked ever since. Moved here in 1979 and my 1st game at TS was USC. UNREAL.

TBH, grew up a Tulane fan in NOLA. My dad went to school at Tulane. My mom was an Ole Miss fan, her nephew played for the Rebels in the early 70's and she's a southern belle from Moss Point MS.

I moved to BRLA in 1980. First Tiger game in Death Valley was an Ole Miss game in 1984. I was hooked! Death Valley at night won me over! That was a great time to be a Tiger fan.

The time now is truly unreal and surreal - Everyone needs to soak it up and ENJOY THE RIDE!.

In 1965, my Dad brought home a program from the LSU-Rice game. I thought it was so cool that a college could have a real tiger on campus. Same year, I received a youth LSU uniform set. Hooked ever since.

1977 my dad took me to the LSU - MSU game for my 10th bithday.... been hooked ever since then! Decided that day I would be a future LSU Tiger.
Graduated from the Ole' War Skule in 1990.

Actually probably was born into it in 1967. My Grandpa used to listen to the tigers on KWKH out of Shreveport when I was very little. I would sit in his lap and cheer when something good happened for LSU. (had no idea what I was cheering for!)

I'm new here but I've been following LSU since the 2007 season. I watch every game I can find.
Living in Lexington, Ky., it was a real bittersweet (much more bitter than sweet) to see UK top the No. 1 Tigers. That year was the zenith of the otherwise no-so-swift Wildcats. What a relief that LSU still finished the year with a championship.
Hope it's a less drama-filled road to another one this year!

Me, too. First game my freshman year. I grew up a Tulane fan because my dad played for them in the 40's, but his game definitely made me a Tiger.

I have a picture of me as a small child in an LSU uniform, circa 1969.
