It’s bronze I believe or maybe it’s gold plated. I know it does not weigh 2000 pounds though lol

A lot of people don’t know that it’s not actually a boot. It represents the shapes of the two states.

I know that bastard is gonna karate chop someone one day and break something. It looks like an accident waiting to happen.

For years when they first started the trophy it sat in a corner of the old LSU hall of fame like they had no idea what to do with it.

I just tried google to see how much gold was used to make the trophy, most say 200# of 24k solid gold. I know this can’t be true but even if it only has 5lbs of gold plating it would have a value of 250k.

So we can sell it to buy out CBK and hire a quality head coach?

Karat not carat.

Both of you are wrong, everyone knows it's carrot.

Thanks!
The only reason I know is the abbreviation. 24k.
Carat wouldn't be an abbreviation for a k word.
