In the stands from '58 to '65 (stayed for my Master's degree). Watched football evolve from "3 yards and a cloud of dust" back then and, unfortunately, during the Miles years. Today we see an inspired Louisiana Larose Coonass install a progressive offense topped off by a Ohio Bayou Transition named Burreaux and what a sight it is to behold. I'll be 80 in April and my sweet wife tells me "LSU football is gonna kill you!!" (My blood pressure goes off the scale during games like last night and last week). "What a way to geaux!!", I tell her. Geaux Tigers!!

Saw very good Athletes in my day, but Pete was by far the best. I was lucky to see most of his games.
And in a Cow Barn LOL

69 here, tiger stadium had wood benches and many splinters. You only had the Huey Long Bridge, stop at the Bellemont to see the mural of the Ole Miss goal line stand in 1959, Pastime for cold beer and delicious poor boys, used to park in the open lot that is now the PMAC. God help you if you lived in West Stadium, no A/C.

I'm 73. Worked in Broussard Hall dining room for 1.5 years. Rubbed elbows with a many, Cholly Mac once told me (while i was serving orange juice) that I looked like a QB he had back in the day.
Was soph when Maravich was freshman. Loved big Remi Prudomme (sp) and Mike Robichax (sp) (a walk-on that did really well). Think he may have made all SEC
