That's pretty cool. LSU needs to hurry up and make a Pete statue though. It's straight up ridiculous that they don't already. Best college basketball player EVER.

You know that building where LSU's basketball team plays its home games...

what does a majority empty building that is one of the more outdated than what most comparable basketball teams play in, have to do with memorializing your greatest player with a bronze statue?

They are not copying anything, Lakers do this for every one of their HOFers.

What a stupid response. The arena where the team plays is named after him, and you're trying to make it seem like a statue in front is better.

Having the building named after him is orders of magnitude more of an honor than a statue. That's his point, retard.

I said we needed a statue of Pete if we have a statue of Shaq. Obviously the Pmac is named after him.

Kinda extreme to call me stupid and a retard because of that though. Completely uncalled for.

You said it was straight up ridiculous that he didn't have a statue, as if it was some slight that they gave Shaq a statue and Pete had to settle for the fricking basketball arena.

Why are you so mad man?

Edit: and there's 23 up votes to 0 down votes so it seems like 23 people agree?

So instead of taking a POSITIVE approach about one of the greatest Tigers and NBA players, you take a moronic potshot at the Lakers organization... pretty legit.

I think he's joking. Both of you need to lighten up if not, I laughed.

Anyway, the statue looks exactly like the LSU one. That's the story here.

Why not have both? I've wondered if LSU was to build a new arena if they would name it the same thing or that just dies out.
