Are you a proponent of the song being played only once, during pre game warmups, or multiple times during the game like in the 4th quarter when something big happens?

Personally I choose the former. I'm not a huge fan of hearing it any time during the game even though I'll sing along anyway. It just doesn't carry same energy or vibe the 2nd time around. Maybe it's the tradition of it being played only once, but I'd much rather hear the band play hold that tiger in late game situations.

Random off-season thought.

When's the last time there was a thread on this? I don't spend every hour on this board.

I could be totally alone in this opinion, but to me hearing it more than once during a game makes it feel less sacred.

It's only played before the game and at end of 3rd Quarter. Those are sacred and fun.

It’s worse at baseball games when they play it every time the opponent changes pitchers

Only once. Before the game. Don’t wanna hear it after the third qtr that should be the band only.

Pregame only, and I like Garth Brooks as much as anyone.

During the game I want more TGBFTL and less piped in music.

I hate the song. If I never hear it again, I will be just fine. We all know there are a lot of bumpkins in this state. We don't need to celebrate it, and we certainly don't need to advertise it.

The song sucks.

If there was a petition to ban it at all LSU sporting events, I would gladly sign.

The song sucks along with every other Garth Brooks song.
Garth Brooks is for middle-aged fat women and 8&4 fans.
I cringe when I hear that damned song at the Box. It's possible that song is the reason the stands are half empty at baseball games.

I'd rather hear that over the "I'm from Louisiana" crap... when most of your team ISN'T from this state.

Get something new and PLEASE... don't bring those bullshite cartoons sounds over from the box!!

pre game is the only song that should be played at this point.
