Can you imagine the lawsuits that would flood in if LSU did that in 2009?

I have my dad's letter sweater from 1934 !It's a purple v-neck with a big gold letter L in the center and a gold stripe on 1 arm .

I have a good picture of him in the sweater !
Don't know how to put it on the internet !

This was from Rice game in 1959-- first game ever televised from Tiger Stadium. Freshman men had to wear pajamas to 1st home game-- organized by ROTC.

Good to know. But that is a great pic of the student section from 1959.

im trying to remake one of these letter sweaters or the letter cardigans. trying to get the colors and placement of the L correct. I guess to narrow it down would be anything from the 40s on to say pete's era.

also trying to find a picture of jim taylor for this wikipedia entry (thats more like a 3 page biography) I made for my eng 2000 class I took a few years ago. I finally am getting around to posting it on wikipedia.
