Could watch that 1000 times. Odd without the local call, though lol.

I was 12, watching with my dad, like we always did.

Living room floor at my parents house glued to the tv. I was 11 years old and i watched every game of the tigers in Omaha and was my first memories of watching tiger baseball/college baseball. It had me hooked.

The game last night ended past midnight local time here... And LSU won again 9-8.

Maybe someone was giving us a little 25 year gift.

At White Oak Plantation, resetting for a wedding. I had my Mom's little portable Sanyo TV in the ballroom with no volume and radio broadcast all over the property.

By the time WM was at bat, I was setting out lawn chairs in front for the ceremony. Hawthorne started screaming over radio, we had no clue what happened but "Tigers win!" was all we needed. Ran inside to watch replay.

It was a great day to be a Tiger.

At a restaurant bar in Destin watching the game with a group of Florida fans. We were all cheering wildly for LSU.

The rest of the restaurant was so confused by our hysteria.

Last day of DiNardo's football camp. Which, fittingly had us all at the old Alex Box. High school buddy & I listened to it on the radio in his 91 Ford truck on the way back home. Went nuts when we heard the loud ding of the bat!

In Omaha sitting in the outfield of old Rosenblatt Stadium with my 10 year old daughter and my 8 year old son. My son was bummed out and complaining that we had come up to Omaha and were going to lose. Then Warren Morris came up and when it went out he was screaming "I knew we were gonna win, I knew it!" It was a fantastic moment. One of the best athletic moments I have ever been to in person.

We went out to the Parking Lot and drank Coors Beer in Baseball Bat Bottles for about 2 hours with a bunch of other LSU fans. I didn't even know them but they were from the West Bank in NOLA. It was great.

20 years, watching with dad at his house. He was 3 days removed from a heart attack and was jumping more than I was. It was a mix of sweet joy and complete worry that my dad was going to give himself another heart attack.
