Good deal? You would have had to pay me to watch Mike Archer and Curley fricking Hallman run the program into the ground those years.
All of the home games in 1990 (Archer's last year) were wins (except Ole Miss). That was the the fun year I remember.
Things went downhill after that, though we did play a tough game against No. 1 Florida State in the rain in 1991, and my buddy and I were seen nationwide on ESPN, high-fiving after an interception.
The low point game was the loss to Colorado State in 1992. The Tigers were so bad that I only bothered to go to three home games that year, and unfortunately that was one.

1960 LSU—Miss. St. 7-3. As a 12 year old. I had been to Fenway Park by then and both venues blew me away. Have been to games all years since except for two years I was at Vanderbilt, then transferred to LSU due to family need to have me closer. Season tickets since 1980. Have been to all LSU-Bama games home and away for 52 years since coming back from Vanderbilt. LSU-Bama has been the best football I’ve seen, and I can’t remember a fight between players at any of the 52 games. Two superbly disciplined teams.

First game - 1974, LSU 20-10 over Tennessee
First year going to most games - 1982
Student section 1984-1990 (six year plan lol)
Took over my dad's season tickets 1990 after I graduated, my brother took them over when I moved out of state 2002.
Missed a few home games between 1982 & 2001: 1988 Auburn (of course) and the '88 Miami beatdown in the storm. Also #1 FSU coming to town in 1991.
Other memorable childhood games: Tying #1 Nebraska 6-6 in 1976, losing to #1 Bama 3-0 in 1979.
Live out of state but still get in the stadium for a few games a year.

First game- Nebraska 1976
First full season- 1981
A game or two every year since.
Earthquake game, Emmit Smith’s first game in Tiger Stadium, ‘03 UGA are some of the most memorable. The ones I cannot remember were even better!

Early 00's. Being that I was Born and raised in S'port and much of my family lives in Arkansas, I watched the Razorbacks in my early childhood. But once I figured out Baton Rouge was in Louisiana (like 6 yrs old) I broke the ranks and became a Tiger fan. The LSU vs UK Bluegrass Miracle game baptized me into an LSU Fanatic and Ive been hooked ever since. Favorite game experience was LSUvsBAMA in 2010. That pass from J. Lee to Rueben Randal to take the lead was Epic. The Saban hate was fresh and strong back then so it made the Win all the more satisfying!

1967, full season as freshman, and in the Tiger band for first two years. After graduating, had four season tickets for 18 years and never missed a home game.

Since I was about 4, so first game would’ve been in 1976. Been going ever since with the same season tickets, different location since the 80’s, that my Pop had since the early 50’s

First game 1972 versus Miss St.
Ushered at many a game in mid 70's
First game as a student 1981 versus Alabama. Yes the first home game was against Bear Bryant's #4 Bama on CBS Sports.
This is my 5th season as a season ticket holder. Only missed one home game in last four years.

First year we had season tickets was 91, when I saw 8. Went to every home game from 91-94. Couldn’t wait for Saturday every single week. Slept in my jersey the night before. Reenacted the plays in my back yard. Wanted Jim Hawthorne’s job when I grew up.
91 to 94
So when certain holier than thou posters call me a hater, needless to say, it bothers me.
Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.
