I've never seen a lot of those old pictures, and i used to try to find stuff like that

Check out Flickr if you're ever looking for some good LSU photos, whether it be action shots, gameday, campus, or vintage pictures. They have some great gems from over the years.

Some examples

This has to be Charlie Mac's last game right?

The butt cuts in the 19th century were out of control!

You could use it for a nose guard or a cup depending on which appendage is more important to you.
The 1915 team looks like they're going to a pajama party.
Never the less, great photos.

being that i'm old i can help identify a few of the random photos.

1979-Mac's final game in Tiger Stadium. 21-3 victory over MSU.


1971 Sun Bowl victory vs.Iowa State 33-15


I'm not sure of what game this was taken during, but I can recall this being the photo on the cover of the 1968 program cover vs. Kentucky. 13-3 Tiger victory.

All I know is that the games must have been MISERABLE to sit in with FULL SUITS and hats on.

That's Funny

But The Greed Level and Waste of money wasn't at a all-time high like it is today.

Plus the players appreciated a scholarship , and LSU had a controlled spending budget.

And the Dollar was worth a Dollar:

Today Inflation Results =

$100 in 1950 equals $1,002.22 in 2016.

Pretty sad huh.

add box seats to the sidelines, and the remaining hedges on each end met the same fate 25-30 years ago.
