I dont think our administrators really understand these issues because the majority were not raised on the culture and tradition that a large majority of Tiger fans were


So what about the rest of us who have been Tiger fans all of our life and spent many saturdays sitting in that same student section, yet we never got songs banned. And Im not talking about 30 years ago, Im talking about 02-06.

see, that is the point. the current students put on their best Miley Cyrus act while dismissing the "old folks" when many, MANY critics are within 10 years removed.

the issues in TS today are sadly indicative of the pussified, unoriginal generation currently showing its arse.

In fairness, LSU has taken a different stance on these issues than they did in '02, and a different stance than Ole Miss, Bama, and even MSU have taken recently.

After Bama scored their last TD (on a pass into the endzone) in the '02 game with about 5 minutes left in the 4th Q, the band played Tiger Rag just so our fans could chant at them. Ole Miss and Bama haven't cut Rammer Jammer (I think I even heard MSU playing it after one of their TDs at their house this year) despite their fans cursing during that song.

I remember when the 3rd Row guys used to do vulgar cheers waiting for the stadium to open I started in '00); then in '04 cops/state troopers started threatening to arrest them or take their tickets away if they did vulgar chants. Then the took down the rails students used to stand on to lead cheers/heckle opposing fans when they put in new gates.

I think the vulgarity has always been a factor, it has never been as easy for a large group to participate in it on a televised platform before.
