I don't remember if I had tears after 2019 Alabama, but I definitely left a restaurant/bar I watched the game at. Sat in my Jeep for at least 30 mins just happy and in disbelief... to realize I was hungry and couldn't go back in the bar without it being awkward.

Don't think I've cried from a loss. Maybe flipped a chair once. The 2011 Championship game probably stung the most. Just sat there and had a helpless feeling watching my team get railed.

Edit: someone made a good point. Def teared up in Burrow's Speech

I cried when Jeremy Witten hit the 2-run HR in the 8th inning to tie up Stanford... I was 9 but it was still an emotional moment for me nonetheless.

I think I teared up when I hugged my dad when the punt rolled out of bounds and the clock read 00:00 in 2003.

Cried like a little bi*ch during Joe Burrows’ Heisman speech and 2003 NC. Never thought LSU would win one because of the 1990s.

For some reason I don’t get choked up DURING LSU games. But after…sometimes years after..when I see highlight/documentary videos of past LSU greatness that I had witnessed..I will get emotional.

No, but I have gotten real erections... mostly from the cheerleaders; once from a Bama coed.

When we lost to Arkansas in 07, I cried. I was only 10 years old but it seemed like we weren’t going to go to the natty, so that was a huge punch to the gut.

The loss to Bama on 1/9/12 was something I’ve never felt though. I didn’t cry but man that was such a depressing feeling. Saints being screwed and losing to the Rams in 2018 was also one of the hardest games for me to get over.

I have no idea why I remember this. We had a party at our house for the 2002 LSU vs Arkansas football game. I was only 7 years old and when Arkansas beat us 21-20 I remember being so angry I cried

I did this when I was little after we lost our final 4 game under John Brady I was so mother fricking mad

3 times I remember getting emotional.

I was living in Orlando in 2007. Flew home for the UF game with my Dad. My best friend had suddenly lost his Dad 2 weeks earlier. That was as personal as a game as it could get. I got bragging rights back home in Orlando, but more importantly had made an awesome memory with my Dad. He had a heart transplant 5 years earlier. Thinking about my best friend and his recent loss, knowing I came very close to losing my dad, and that win vs the Gators made it all too much. We sat in that stadium for about 20 min after the game and that moment will forever be burned into memory for all those reasons I mentioned.

Now I live in Alabama so the 2019 win vs the Gumps was extra special, and the same feels hit me after we sealed up the natty. Tailgating across the street from the dome I sat there and let it sink in that LSU not only had a perfect season, it was the greatest one the college game has ever seen. I was with our tailgate crew, The TUB, and seeing all these people I’ve grown to love over the years so happy was just awesome. Damn it I love football.

Yes I did! Not in particular to the football game, but tears were flowing during TGBFTL's "Amazing Grace" Tribute to 9/11 in our first home game after the attack.

I might have shed a tear when Joe handed Clyde the game ball in Bama. Of all the recent RB talent at LSU, it would be a 3 star RB that carried the team.

Then again when Clyde went see his dad on the sidelines.

No. I had a heart attack during one, but whatever.

Not that I remember. Depression - absolutely!

I think my test scores went down a grade after losses.

Used to think about doing my masters thesis (psychology) on that systemic correlation.

It was the first national championship game he and I didn’t both attend. We were at all the others from 2003 on. (Even the one in 2012)

I know he was watching though.
