Tigerland would have been a disease mecca in the 80’s.

We didn’t have pandemics in the 80’s. Ronald Reagan would have never put up with that shite.

But Fred’s on a Wednesday? Forget about it. That patio was a wall to wall saliva, sweat, and random bodily fluids exchange. And I’m not too proud to admit that I made out with a chick or two whom I didn’t even know on the dance floor at Cilly’s.

Good times.

It’s no different now, except it holds twice the people.

Tigerland WAS a disease mecca in the 80’s.

It was genital warts and VD instead of COVID is all.

Other than sweat and saliva, what other fluids were exchanged on the patio? I was there in the 90’s so perhaps I am naive to what went on in the 80’s

Good thing they didn’t have HPV back then.

I have news about the 80s: AIDS was a pandemic.

He sounds like my older brother who swears 1984 thru 1988 were just untouchable. Like kegs and fake ids. Can you imagine!?

The HPV caught by college kids in Tigerland in the 80s will kill more through cervical and throat cancer than college kids will die from covid today.

Congrats on the kiss, brother. Hopefully one of these days I'll score a smooch with one of the LLotOT.

Oh AIDS definitely wouldn’t have been a problem in tigerland. But there were certainly pandemics under old Ronnie

Tigerland needs to be levelled! It is a horrible college bar area and is super dangerous.....
LSU needs a bar strip like Athens, and other major colleges.

Anybody remember the slogan on cups and coozies from Cilly’s: “ Drunk at Cilly’s”? How about Snorkels, The Tiger and my favorite hangout - Sports or “Sports Illustrated”. Not sure how they got away with that copyright infringement. How ‘bout pissin’ in the sink @ The Tiger. Dollar Busch longnecks on Friday and Saturday nights @ Sports and Beat the Clock. Good times, back when we were all more innocent and it was much safer to move freely in and out of college bars.
