1997 Florida. My dad had season tickets in the north endzone, almost on top the tunnel. I don’t remember much about the game, but I remember the post game celebration.

LSU vs Miami. Not sure what year. It was raining. Miami pounded us like 52-3 I think. I think 1988 ish. Loved it. Tiger Stadium is an unforgettable place no matter the circumstances.

1982 VS TN. My friend and I were freshman in high school. Did not have tickets and there were not many for sell. Saw a guy with two and we sprinted to him. Game ended 24-24. Been going ever since.

1986 The Miami of Ohio game. I was really young and didn’t really care about the game but I remember my dad being mad as hell at LSU and I really didn’t understand what the big deal was.

My brother was attending LSU in 91 and I wanted to meet Shaq when I came down. Got to meet him and that's when I was all in on LSU. I don't remember much of the game but started coming more and more after that. I just remember Shaq stretching his legs out over multiple seats in front of him to get comfortable at the game. Lol

1995 LSU vs Arkansas. LSU won 28-0. My brother got 4 free tickets from his boss and I got to go. I’ve been hooked ever since.

You were classmates with my brother - He enrolled about maybe in 45,46 timeframe.
He invited me and the whole family down to see them play North Carolina in 1949 - I was about 11 years old.

My first time at LSU and I was fascinated with Tiger Stadium. When he told me "that is where the game will be" - I thought he meant they played on top of the building - and wondered what they'd do if someone fell off.

I was taken with the name of the North Carolina player - Choo Choo Justice. My brother talked more about Y.A. Tittle as I recall, but at the time I was more taken with Choo Choo.

lots of great memory from that day.
