Fat Cat I know it's not technically LSU memorabilia but badass none the less and you can't tell me it doesn't look like Mike.

I do like the 1909 picture of LSU vs. Jackson Barracks, showing the Pentagon in the back ground.

'07 BCS ticket and seat from old Alex Box. I have nothing to do with the seat right now. It's just in my attic. Going to have to find a way to incorporate it in my next house.

My tattered LSU window flag from when we (my Dad, my Son, my 2 Brothers and my Bro-in-law) traveled to the dome from Houma to watch our Tigers win their first National Championship since 1958! I retired the flag that night when we got back. What a great memory!

Tangibles: My vintage BEAT BAMA button and photo of me with mascot Mike before the LSU - Indiana game at the Final Four in Philly in 1981.
Intangibles: Being a freshman in 1966 with Pete Maravich and actually attending his games in the Cow Palace. (Unlike hundreds of thousands of fans who say they were there.)

Went to fan day in 2001 and got a ball signed by just the freshman class, some of them had weird numbers before switching later, like Spears (89), Addai (41), Shyrone (44) and Ronnie Prude (43).
It's also signed by Clayton, Marquise Hill, Ben Wilkerson and the most rare of them all, the infamous Tim Pope.

Many of you guys might remember Steven, the Bama fan. I'm not sure of his username on TD.Com, but he was an active poster. He and I had become good friends after one season that he and his tailgate buddies came down to BR. We texted a lot, I drove up to Huntsville to visit him for a weekend of barbecue and good times. Anyone who knew him was blessed by him.
He truly was a good soul and a loyal friend, but G*ddamn was he naive. He was generous with the things he had, especially his trust. He truly believed that everyone was as good of a person as he was, and unfortunately, he was often taken advantage of. He was having bouts of depression, turning to alcohol, and eventually harder things.
He died about 4 years ago due to liver failure around Christmas, due to complications with alcohol and seizure medication - a result of just how hard his depression took a hold of him.
The last season he came down to BR, he brought me an LSU helmet that now sits on top of my desk. He had lost quite a bit of weight due to the sickness, but he still had high spirits. I promised him that I would come up and visit when I got off work around Christmas.
Two weeks before my trip up, I called his wife to ask him how he's doing and to tell her that I was still planning on coming up for Christmas. She replied, "we don't think he's going to make it to Christmas". I left work immediately and drove the 8 hours up to visit him, bringing that LSU helmet he brought me that season.
I spent the night with him and his family, and before I said good-bye to him for the last time, I had him sign it. He could barely muster the strength for a proper signature due to how weak he was, so his name is rather jumbled and barely legible.
He passed away a couple days later.
Every season, when LSU plays Alabama, I take that helmet with me wherever I watch the game, just so I know that Steven is there with me. As long as LSU and Bama have a game, I will always have Steven by my side.
The helmet.

I have my grandfather's student ticket booklet from the 1950s. Also a ticket stub for the "Whites Only" section from a Sugar Bowl against Nebraska in the 50s

Probably one of 3 game programs I own.
1. 1947 Cotton Bowl Program
2. 1959 Sugar Bowl Program (1958 national championship bowl game vs. Clemson)
3. 1959 Ole Miss Game Program (Billy Cannon Punt Return)
As a collection, I really love the bowl program collection I'm about to complete. I own the program of every bowl game LSU has played, except for the 1937 Sugar Bowl. That's the only one I'm missing before completing the set!
