LSU never truly invested into the gymnastics team until recently


Is that an excuse for lack of fandom until they start doing well?

I just find it funny that a bunch of fat beer-swilling people who wouldn't know a "curtsy: if it hit them in the face are now filing in to fill up a stadium to watch gymnastics. They could have done it years ago.

The only reason is bandwagon fans or LSU fans. Nothing else.

BS.

"For the sixth consecutive year the LSU gymnastics program ranked among the nation’s top 10 in home attendance figures as LSU finished sixth this season, GymInfo released Tuesday." This was way back in 2009. Meaning that LSU has been in the Top 10 in attendance since 2003. In 2009, LSU averaged 3,732 fans per meet.
See: LINK

Even in 2014 they were averaging 5600 per meet, 5th in the nation.

You're just hearing about it more because instead of just being in the top-10 rankings, they have finished #2 in the country the past two seasons, and are drawing top-notch recruits from all over the country and world. Also, DD finally got the financial support she needed, getting the finest college gymnastics facility in the country.
As for fat beer-swilling people who wouldn't know a curtsy? Have you EVER been to a meet? A large majority of fans there are families with children who take gymnastics, or just girls who love gymnastics, which goes a long way toward instilling in them a love for LSU.

So, screw you.

Were you born this big an a-hole or did it take a lot of rejection to get there? I'm better the latter.
