And there stood (off in the distance) around the 40 yard line a hulking older guy with his hands clasp around his mouth making a sound that sounded like "HIGER MATE! HIGER MATE! HIGER MATE!
Wasn't there also an older guy in the 70s who'd endlessly yell "Go Tigers, Go Tigers, Go Tigers..." over and over again with a booming voice? Or am I confusing this with Big Red and his cheer?

Don't remember the "Go Tiger" bellower but then I was heavily sedated.
The unmistakable thing about "Big Red" was when he yelled all the veins in his neck would bulge out; he'd turn beet red and his head would thrust forward violently like a mad dog barking. The man put every ounce of his physical being and heart into every "TIGER BAIT!" belt.
Wow. Just awesome! An LSU man's man!
