I think it would be awesome, isn’t it?

It’s very hard to win the Heisman trophy. Some major schools never had one. Let’s celebrate!!!

They could throw special doubloons good for free chicken strips at Canes. have Joe Burrow and Jayden and their parents. They could start by the old White Horse and end at the stadium. Definitely go down sorority row on the way.LETS DO IT!

You can have the entire offense on some floats. The defense can stay home. Lol

What the hell is wrong with the Tiger Band and a three float parade !

One for JD and receivers, one for his front lineman and one for King Kelly and offensive staff.

We had to wait 60 years for the 2nd Heisman trophy (1959-2019). That was such a long time!!!

Actually, it looks like Billy Cannon had a parade after his.

What else was there to do in Baton Rouge in 1960?

As a member of Endymion, I move that we invite Jayden to be Grand Marshall. His teammates (offence) could ride the float with him, and it could be led by the Golden Band from Tigerland.

Maybe have Burrow and Daniels share the title?

This reminds me of a conversation my brother had with our parents one Christmas Eve a few years ago. My parents wanted to take (their grandchildren) my young kids and my brother's (late teenage) kids driving around town to look at Christmas lights. None of the kids were particularly thrilled about the idea, which came as a shock to my parents. My brother said to my mom "kids today don't want to do that anymore." My mom responded by saying "well ya'll did when you were kids", to which my brother responded: "That was 1975! We had one TV with only 3 channels and it was too dark/cold to play outside. We didn't really want to look at Christmas lights then either, but there was nothing else to do. It was just a reason to get out of the house!"
