Advice for students for the rest of the season and beyond

Some have started to try and bring back the newspapers during opposing team intro. That’s great, but you have to do it correctly.
Sit down, stomp your feet, wave the paper in front of your face and yell “SUCKS” after each player is called. Then after they’re done, crumple the paper into a ball, stand up and throw the paper as far as you can onto the court (Wrap a hotdog wrapper around the paper, and you’ll make it to the court for sure). Now, it’s time to stand the entire game and make relentless noise when the opposing team has the ball, from opening tip to final horn.
Y’all have gotten better as of late, but there’s still room for improvement. Basketball games can be more fun than football games when we’re winning. Enjoy it, and make memories with your fellow students.

But how will they do all of that, and capture it for their SnapChat story at the same time?

Saw several grown baws in 320 with their phones constantly out last weekend. That isn't just a student thing.
Also, heard some jerkoff tell people to sit down right before we took the lead towards the end. Some people

I noticed that they are handing the newpapers out as the starting lineups are being announced. Maybe hand them out as people enter the section or lay them put on seats.

If you compare a primetime basketball game against a ranked opponent to LSU football vs. Georgia Southern, sure.

Someone should host a seminar for them so they can learn- Basketball Student Section Best Practices.

Was this a real thing at one point? Wow

Yes, I remember clearly growing up, sitting across from the students and watching them do this! It was when the students actually had good seats at center court instead of tucked behind the goal. The PMAC is a great venue when the crowd is engaged (not just students but EVERYONE)!

I was in school from '04 to '08 when football was at its peak, baseball was surging and basketball (men and women) were having some of their best years.
I had more fun during that final four run in 2006 than in any other season in any other sport.

I was in the student section (I'm a student) and I was asked to sit down. when I turned around to ask who said that, no one said a word and I continued standing

I never understood this.
The newspaper is supposed to mean you aren’t paying attention to their shitty lineup.
If you aren’t paying attention that how do you know when to yell “SUCKS”?
I feel like they either need to yell “SUCKS” OR use the newspapers and not pay attention.
Doing both is contradictory and retarded.
Edit: another option is to do something that every other student section hasn’t done a million times before. I’m not that creative so I don’t have any ideas of what that might be but originality is much better than being a copy cat.

Same
People underestimate the electricity of a wild PMAC atmosphere. The entire spring semester was fun AF too that year. Two games a week to get excited about. Can’t beat that.

Hey Bert, students at LSU have been doing the newspaper thing for YEARS. It dropped off recently, but it’s been a tradition for a loooong time.

Am I misremembering, or did we also have a "boring, boring" chant while using the newspapers?

Yes, I remember that as well. Said it while shaking them. Lots of good options.
