re: The ULL hate for us is going to reach new levels on Feb 26th.

I lived in Lafayette for a while back in the mid 2000's. I think a lot of the reason why they get their panties in wad is because Lafayette/Acadiana, to them, is a big deal. From what I got from living there it seemed like one of those places that you didn't drift away for too long if you were from there. My buddies' kids & their friends usually would jump into the 5th year of high school known as UL-L rather than "starting over" in a new town like Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Oxford, etc. The kids that did go to LSU were "too good" for UL-L and usually came from wealthier families. Why they made such a big deal about it, I'll still never figure it out. LSU is a public university, not an expensive, private university.

Maybe things have changed, but from the looks of things, they got worse. The wealthy oilfield kids are still going to LSU and the only once that stay behind are the f**k ups or the townies.
