I remember the good ol' mid 80's when I was a student, and TGBFTL actually got to play and finish """"EVERY"""" LSU cheer and song.

Hearing 'Tiger Rag' and the 'ha ha ha ha ha' after an LSU TD, and the band holding tempo with a drum cadence until the extra point went through the goal posts as an exclamation was VERY cool, and TRADITIONAL. School spirit. LSU spirit.

Not any more. We don't have LSU traditional mystique and spirit.
It's too bad we'll never hear that again after an LSU TD, nor will we ever hear the traditional old wonderful cheers and songs that the Band used to play.
We have gone from one of the best and most highly school-spirited student sections to an absolute embarrassment and abomination - and they DON'T GIVE A FLYING ---- about ANYONE.

But themselves. It's a shame.

I agree that alot of this stuff was taken way too far...

But I went to games with alot of really good people who don't drink or cuss, but would join in these cheers...it was just fun. Then everything got way out of hand with all the F Bombs and such.

My stance is that it's a football game...not church...so go ahead and cuss, don't go crazy with it, and don't be dropping F bombs around kids.

Alot of it was harmless because we were just in the company of other students.

It's not bad at road games. I've been to Atlanta and Orlando and it's been decent but then I'm mainly with the alums now.

Changing of the times, folks. No one's clean anymore. But we do the best we can to represent our Tigers with class.

GTFO I tired of self endulging, entitled morons like you. I'm sure when you were in college you were a model citizen. doubt it. I don't scream F-bombs @ football games but to complain every damn day and talk about the good ole clean days is pure hypocrisy.
