Things have changed just a little bit since then.

I remember David Duke giving some pretty fiery speeches up there. NO WAY LSU would allow him to speak now.

Actual question, does it not actually exist anymore?

There was a screaming preacher there from time to time that always drew a decent crowd and some hecklers.

I remember a few short years ago how someone threated to burn the flag on campus...but that didn't go as planned... now wondering if things would go different?

I remember some jackass screaming "you're going to hell" at everyone. I used to avoid the front of the union as much as possible.

My kids still tell me about wackos they have out there. Lots of cultish stuff.

Yes, I remember. But what has changed?

Late eighties I remember around mid terms and finals some culty religious guy and his gf/wife showing up every semester

Sister Cindy and Brother Jed were always good for a laugh.

I remember Sister Cindy’s picture she painted after a vision of the Earth going to hell in a hand basket.

They don't have Free Speech Alley anymore? Where do students get their pocket bibles from now?

So what’s there now?? I was there from 2008-2013. I remember the crazy folks yelling at people they were going to hell for being sinners. Usually it was a husband and his wife and kids would just be standing around awkwardly holding signs. And there was this older white guy with a desk set up that would invite people to talk about Jesus. You had the occasional shouting matches between people. I would go eat my lunch out there and enjoy the shite show.

I remember a guy in the early 90’s who used to shake his Bible at the squirrels and scream, “Repent! Repent you fornicating squirrels!”
He was a hoot.
He was a hoot.

They had two chicks dressed in patriotic bikinis with "bush" and "gore" painted on them fake wrestling in one of the fountains in the quad when I was there. Probably the most memorable if not confusing display of "free speech" during my time at LSU. The only thing I remember about free speech alley other than the religious screamers was that I learned to avoid it like the plague to not get roped into some pointless sales pitch about some cause I didn't give a shite about.

There was some guy who used to bring his guitar out there and sing really nasty songs he had written about the female Student Body President.
