There are two in front of the military science building that actually fired on Fort Sumter. They don't fire them though. The ROTC program does have some other cannons they fire. When I was a student after every touchdown they would fire it inside the stadium.

They've done it when the team runs on the field recently. They haven't done it this year and I don't think last year.

That's cool. Those Fort Sumter cannons are significant historical artifacts. They shouldn't be fired, unless some a-hole SJWs start protesting the cannons. Then they should be fired

Ah LSU Salutes forgot about that. When I was a cadet it wasn't on the Arkansas game week so I forgot about that. Entire Corps of Cadets on the parade grounds with March and review.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I read Sherman was the first president of the University.

Sherman loved Louisiana. He just loved the United States a little more.

However, those cannon belong at The Citadel, not LSU.
