DB is awesome. Except that time in 2014 when he made the announcement to not rush the field against Bama and jinxed us

I’ve said it a million times but Dan Borne is a national treasure

Ya know, even though it’s convenient seeing other scores flash around the stadium and on our phones, I do miss his reading off of other games and the crowd reaction

“In the 4th, Florida 28, Ole Miss 24” and everyone would “oooh” in surprise

There was a ferry that ran "up the Mississippi River" from Thibodaux to Baton Rouge in the 1950s?

Why do they have to pepper BS like this into stories?

It was the mid 1950s, and Danny Borné was eager to get his first look inside Tiger Stadium. Eight years old, he'd already fallen in love with the pageantry of LSU football from listening to John Ferguson call games on the radio from his home in Thibodaux, Louisiana. WWL, that old 50,000-watt AM station out of New Orleans, was crystal clear at night.

Now, his Aunt Doris was taking him to see it in person. The interstate system wasn't as developed then, so Borné, Doris and her two boys got on a ferry to carry them up the Mississippi River to Baton Rouge.

Brodhead had come from Miami and was still getting a feel for Louisiana. His question to Borné was simple: "Can you pronounce these names?"

There was a list of Boudreauxes, Broussards and Heberts.

"Pronounce them?" Borné said. "I know their daddies."

Do you not read or write?
It's literally a human interest story. So leave out the human and the interest?

Wait Dan Borne is from Thibodaux?

Did not know..

They need to have the World Series game on the TVs at the concession stands
