I was 7 years old in 1969. We didn't have a tv but we were visiting my aunt and uncle who did have a tv. My uncle started watching a football game. I was mesmerized. I thought it was cool guys got to run into each other and play with that funny looking ball.
I asked my uncle who was playing, he said LSU and Alabama. I asked him what team he wanted to win ? He gave me the glare. "LSU, boy". It was right then I would become a lifelong LSU fan. The TV was black and white so I didn't even know the LSU colors.
My uncle has since passed but to this day I am thankful for that one Saturday that gave me my fandom. LSU won, 20-15.
