Why? Do you want to cause an explosion of confederate flags on campus? Because that is what will happen.




How old are you?

I'm 36, and I remember. Katrina opened up that season. There was a 4-5 game stretch in the middle of that season where all the games were at home. And walking down Nicholson, from Burbank, towards Alex Box Stadium was like walking through an LSU orientated civil war reenactment. (see 4 posts above)

Lift kits, roll bars, LSU confederate flags, and Hank Williams Jr being played at every other tailgate along that walk. THe story died down, and the flags went away.

People want to be contrarian, and if this story is still kicking come football season, I expect to see the same thing again.
