I remember in '82, working with my dad as usual on Saturday, when we weren't going to the game, listening to the LSU/Bama game when LSU beat them. We would have the radio turned up loud enough to hear it anywhere we were in the house we were working on, and only started the saw on commercials, cutting several cuts to get us to the next one. What a game that was. It was the only game I remember that my dad said, "Let's go take a break by the radio." and we sat by the radio eating our sandwiches and drinking root beer, listening to the rest of the game. This was special because dad hated to stop working once we got started... I'm that way now too.

I also remember Oregon State coming to homecoming in BR and when we drove past the dorms, we saw a big mural. A Tiger in an LSU uni had a beaver bent over a chewed-off log, humpin him, and in huge letters it said, "Dam the Beavers". Of course dad laughed at how hard me and my brother guffawed about it.

just two of many incredible memories involving my dad and LSU

Sitting in New Orleans at the top row to watch the Sugar Bowl in 2007 was almost as nice as Sitting in Cowboys Staduim in the top row. At least at the Superdome, you are right next to the bathroom.

Correction: Mercedes Benz Superdome.

for some reason as a kid, stopping at the Picadilly was another big highlight to the adventure of going to a game in BR, along with listening to the recap on the way home.
