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

I was about ten years old - my brother was at LSU then and we all went down to see LSU play North Carolina - the only name I remember from the game was NC's 'Choo Choo Justice."

I was in awe of Tiger Stadium. When we approached it and I saw that it was a building, I thought they played football on TOP of the thing and wondered what happened if they punted the ball off the top.

We also saw Mike I in the original cage. They were cleaning the cage out and there was an ugly six foot wide stream of 'green' crap running over the sidewalk. My brother and his friend jumped right over it, and I tried, but didn't make it. I ended up on my back in the middle of the tiger poo. My parents had to take me to town to get me some new clothes - first time I ever got corduroy pants - so it turned out well. Actually, the discussed just making me stay in the car during the game but decided the car would smell too bad for the trip back home - whew!!

<<< probably the only LSU fan on the board who can claim to have been covered in Mike I tiger shite.
