re: Wearing LSU gear outside the state of Louisiana

It depends where I have lived in this decade.

Michigan: indifference except for several months after Saban left MSU, then some Spartans were asking why I was wearing LSU. Most thought I was a UM guy trying to rub in the defection of their coach.

Nebraska: Most Children of the Corn were indignant to see someone wear apparel for a university other than Nebraska. Comments consisted of "Why are in you wearing that?" (in condescending tone) or "LSU sucks".

Dallas: I heard occasional comments of annoyance from fans of Zero U or Tex-arse. Mostly, people didn't care since they were focused on pro sports.

California: Most locals couldn't care less about college sports. A few times per yr, some locals ask, "What's LSU?". Some people see purple & gold & assume I'm a Lakers' fan.
