With the season about to begin, post your first game, first season that you went to all or most games, number of years as a season ticket holder or attending all or most games.

First game - Tulane 1980 in Tiger Stadium (cold and raining)

First season - 1981

Student section 1984 through 1987.

I have attended all but a handful of home games since 1981 and have had season tickets since 1989.

2019 will be my 39th season of LSU Fighting Tiger football.

I was born in 1990. The first game I remember is the 1997 Florida game.

I remember seeing the absolute excitement on people's faces as LSU pulled the upset. It got me hooked for life. Kevin Faulk was my favorite player, and I have watched almost every single LSU game since.

Student section from 2009-2012. I was in middle school for the 03 championship and High School for the 07 one. 2011 was supposed to be the year I got to see us win one as a student, and it all fell apart .

Still love watching the Tigers play though!

1985, LSU v Kentucky.. i mostly remember that we sat in the tippy-top of the stadium, in a driving rainstorm for most of the game.. and we won, i think it was 7-0.

1960, my parents were new to BR and they bought 4 season tickets. I was 9 years old. It took my parents a whole season to become LSU fans which they remain. It took me one game to become an LSU fan. My dad went to Notre Dame and my mom Sam Houston State, but they both became devoted LSU fans for life. Their three kids all graduated from LSU.

My first game was LSU losing to Baylor in TS.

Born 1960.
First game, 1962 I think. Attended most games until we moved away in 1968 before the season started.
Returned for freshman year in 1979. Attended all home games until I graduated for the final time in 1988. Moved away for job.
Returned in 1993, but didn't buy season tickets. Still attended most games.
Bought season tickets during Dinardo years.
Still have season tickets.

I'm not sure. I was born in 71. Probably a few years after that.

My first memory of a game I was 4. A guy behind us spilled his bourbon and coke on me. My mom yelled at him. The stadium smelled like perfume, cigarettes, and bourbon.

I thought it was fricking awesome.

1961 was first season. Got hooked two years previously listening to Halloween game on WWL. Had to leave a party and a slim shot at big tit Darlene to hear the Billy Cannon punt return on car radio.

Dad started bringing me to the games in the 1957 season. I was 6 years old. This will be my 63rd season of watching the Tigers. I've had the season tickets in my name since 1983. We've sat in the same seats all these years. My grandmother was the original season ticket holder of our seats. 1954. There are still 2 season ticket holders who sit near to me, that have been going since we were all in high school in the late 60's.
