That sucks for your kids.



what does? Not sitting in the NEZ? I think I can deal with one of the sidelines or the other endzone...

I'm no parent yet but I think below 10 is too young. They'll just get tired and bored and annoy me

Elleshoe, I like you as a Rant poster. So, don't take this the wrong way, but at some point you may be like me (old fart, early 40s) and sitting in the East lower bowl around the 15 yard line just across from the student section, and seated next to you is your lovely 10-yr-old daughter whom you adore ... both of you soaking in the experience of a Saturday Night in Tiger Stadium, eating nachos, cheering first downs.

And at some point she turns to you with those big doe eyes and asks, "Daddy, what does suck that tiger dick mean?" (which we can hear clearly) and then you might be like me and think...

Man, I wish we were focusing on the field of play, or Mike the Tiger, or how she'd love to be an LSU Cheerleader someday. Yet, instead she's hearing 15K students say this in unison and I'm going to have to spend the next few minutes telling her why they are doing something inappropriate.

So, yes, I'd rather it not happen. It is a negative on a night of what is otherwise Pure Glorious Pageantry of College Football.

And, btw, some folks feel strongly enough about it to threaten their donation levels, which will hit home with LSU and could negatively impact the football program. (not hyperbole)
