re: I Became a Tiger Fan When......................

When my dad's sperm met my mom's egg

My parents family album contains pictures of me in LSU baby clothes. I was a fan before I even knew it.

I was 5 years old and my Dad got me one of the Hutch replica/youth uniforms. I wouldn't take it off.

When i started to understand what football was. Not a big basketball or baseball fan, so football was all i had as far as team sports went. I played for the Galvez Tigers, in which every year the coaches took us to see them practice and get autographs. What really sealed the deal is when Rohan Davey, who worked for my dad as a copy boy at his office, pointed me out of the pile of screaming children asking for an autograph. He asked "You John's son?" in which I hesitantly nodded my head. He pulled his 2 sweaty, practice-worned nike wristbands off and gave them to me and smiled (you know that big goofy, michael strahan smile). That was the year they went on to win the sugar bowl and the sec title.

at birth.

Gotta put this one in here just because it made me laugh

November 28th 1997, My dad took me to my first LSU game, I was only 6 at the time and it was the battle for the golden boot. My uncle was an alumni from Arkansas and I remember being in the South end zone looking down from the fences on top of that section. After the game my aunt told me to talk crap on my uncle for Arkansas losing to us, and every since than I have been a TexasTiger

i was born
