I am coming to LSU for the Florida game. What is the best book out there to charge me up about LSU football?

I would suggest either Playboy or Hustler. They should get you pretty excited.

But on a real note: It never rains in Tiger Stadium

Kind of depressing but a good read.

Not a book, but better. Read John Ed's SI piece "The Best Years of His Life." (August 12, 2002)

Are you a fan of a specific team...or are you just coming down to experience the atmosphere?

I like LSU. But we are coming for the LSU experience. All I have read is how amazing Tiger Stadium and the tailgating is.

I've gone to at least one college game a year for the last 4 years.

I'm coming from Halifax, Nova Scotia, with 5 other guys. We're very excited.

Don't worry about buying food or drinks. You'll get fed and watered down no problem. Just be sure to mention it's your first time there, and how far you've come. You'll be in like Flynn!

It Never Rains in Tiger Stadium by John Ed Bradley is a great read.

I couldn't find it online either. eMail me your address and I'll mail you a copy of mine. If you happen to know what the postage is from Atlanta to Halifax, that would be helpful, too.

This isn't a book, but a great article that gets me fired up every time.
