So we'll have to drop TGBFTL and move to loud, piped-in music? Maybe the administration will break up the student section into parts? This has the real potential of not ending well. When I was 18-22 and a student at LSU, I would've been with you. In the grown-up world, there is image and brand to manage. This is not a conspiracy to squash you by the man. This is an attempt to not have words like dick, bitch, arse, cock, etc. resounding from the student section of LSU on national TV. That's all.


That's not what I'm saying at all. What I'm saying is the real way to prevent these things from gaining traction is to stop cracking down in the first place. If you let the students chant whatever kind of retarded B.S. they want and don't an the songs they chant it to, they'll probably get bored with it and stop chanting it on their own. The only reason this stuff gets traction is because it gives the students the opportunity to "stick it to the man". You can't "stick it to the man" if "the man" doesn't give a shite. If you ignore it and never ban anything, it will go away. Also, just get the older fans to sing along to the correct words and you won't have this problem either.

I'm just glad the twenty students at the bottom of the section for LSU basketball games didn't yell STTDB...that would have been a new level of awkward.

I see. So when we listened to the Student Section shrieking "a-hole! a-hole!" for several seasons at every home game and every time we scored a touchdown when TGBFTL attempted to play 'Tiger Rag; - a DECADES old tradition at LSU - did they "get bored and stop" then ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
