First game I went to was in '73 as a high school senior, during a visit to campus (maybe for JamJam?). Don't remember who we played, but remember Big Red bellowing in the stands and the late Mike Miley making a diving stop and flip to start a game ending double play. The next fall, we were cheering him on the football field. Coach Mac seemed to be only the person who didn't know he would leave in the baseball draft and our revamped offense didn't work too well without him. Then there was the tragic car wreck that ended his life.

I certainly attended more football, basketball and even gymnastics than baseball during my time at LSU, but we went to a few. Nothing at all like the current situation and I could have never imagined what LSU baseball would become.

When to several games with my Mom and Dad during 74. Can't recall anything about the games really just know that the stands were fairly empty. I and my younger sister would travel back and forth to where my parents were all the way up to the top of the stands. Nobody to tell us to sit down as there was no one up there.
