I found this in my spidermantuba email.

Hi,

I sincerely apologize that you did not feel the Guitar Hero event went over well. It was the first time Student Government tried an event like this, and we thought it would be a different, fun way for students to get a chance to participate in the game. However, I completely see where you are coming from, and if students do not like the event then we need to go back to the drawing table. We have a meeting with Dr. Moorhouse of Tiger Band and Melissa Hart, the Athletic Director, so I will be sure to bring your concerns to their attention. Thank you so muhc for your honest feedback, and please continue to do so in the future!

Have a good night,

Aly Neel
Executive Assistant
Louisiana State University Student Government

yes. I wasn't the only one.

First they start piping in Elton John over the loudspeakers. Now guitar hero? What's next? I can't even imagine.

What Elton John song are you referring to?

Only one I can think of is the "Saturday Night is alright for fighting" in pregame.

I mean, I didn't like it either. But its not something that they are going to do every week like the piped-in music.

After receiving numerous emails from the likes of posters on the Rant - I would guess they wouldn't.

I mean, if you think that without the help of Rant emails, that TGBFTL would start doing Guitar Hero shows every week then... well, IDK.

Melissa Hart has done an amazing job as Student Director of Athletics. The fact that you call her a failure and hide behind your call name is pathetic.

Hating on students that work hard and do great things and make a difference at the University is pathetic for someone who sits behind a computer and bitches about stuff instead of taking action on it.

Im sorry Melissa turned you down on a date, and are bitter.
The Guitar Hero tournament was great, and something new. The fact that 2 students out of 20,000 didnt like it should be taken as a compliment.

Get off your fat arse and so something if you dont like what they are doint.

I tried not to be a total arse in the email or use derogatory words towards them but I think it came across that way....

Somebody has to complain before these people will know that people don't like it.

I have just had two relatively bad experiences with her. She seems enthusiastic enough, but I wouldn't call her performance to be "amazing" by any stretch of the imagine.

I have experiences with more than one Student Director of Athletics and she just seems to be by far the most disorganized.

We don't come to Tiger Stadium for something new.


We come for tradition.

The only good thing about the tournament was that it featured the Golden Girls...

He was referring to me.

But I think we found either her BF or the overprotective guy who likes her but finds himself in the "friend zone."

And even I didn't call HER a failure. I just said the meeting was already full of fail.
