re: Is it common knowledge among LSU fans that Booger > MSpears

I like Booger on TV.

During my 1st semester at LSU as a freshman, I had a Business Calculus class with Booger (and Chuck Wiley). Booger was always engaged and talkative, but in a good way.

Our teacher was a distinguished black man in his 50s that always wore a suit. Continued to refer to him as Anthony, even as everyone around campus (and TV commentators) only called him Booger.

During the week of the Auburn game (Bring Back the Magic), Booger made a bet with the teacher. If LSU won, he would get to drive the teacher's nice car for a week. If Auburn won, Booger would have to teach a class. The teacher asked, what is Auburn ranked? Booger said 3rd (or whatever it was) and the teacher said "Well, I know you guys aren't so I'll make that bet."

The following Monday, the teacher started by saying "Now Anthony, I was prepared to follow through on the bet but thought I should have a short discussion with the compliance guys. Turns out I can't let you drive my car but I can allow you to co-teach a class with me. Congrats!"
