Absolutely not. Before Dinardo, when Hallman was here - was the absolute lowest it's ever been. The band would come marching down the hill before the game and the scene at the bottom looked about what it looks like before a basketball game. Maybe 60,000 fans would show up to the games. And in those years, women didn't care about LSU. You brought up LSU in a local establishment and people rolled their eyes or snickered as if to say, "why do you subject yourself to that." Those were definitely the dark days.

The fanbase is definitely lethargic now, but if there is such a thing as being optimistically lethargic, that would be the best way I could describe it.

But nowhere near the lowest point.

Oh really, you dip prong? I've been bleeding P&G since the day I was born, as has my hubby.

Try to avoid ignorant statements like that in the future. It'd help you avoid looking so ridiculously uninformed.

I remember during the dark days of Archer/Hallman that I literally would not know who LSU was playing and would have to find out the score and details of the most recent loss in the Sunday paper. That's how little I cared about LSU at the time. I was a huge fan during Cholly Mack/Stovall/Arnsparger. I was even in Tiger Band and some of my colleagues had to tell me to chill out during the games because I would get out of hand cheering sometimes.
