I could have said I then took them on two on two. I picked Taz of course and gave Temple Martin. Then I proceeded to go Wayne Ellington on Temple's arse.

But that didn't happen...

Sounds like a little :asskisser: man crush you got there. Did you ask for their autographs, then bow down on the ground?

No, I just talked to him like he was a normal person. I'm sure they rather that.

Students didn't get in free because it was an NCAA event.

But...Les Miles, Trent Johnson and Paul Mainieri donated $1,000 each to fund free tickets for LSU students.

Mighty nice of those guys.

Well i think you were misinformed because we definatly got in for free and they even gave us a free hot dog and a drink to boot to get us to come.

Its essentially the same thing that forced you to pay to see a high school playoff game at your school when otherwise you would get in with a student id. Its to keep the competitive advantage of having a playoff game on campus from being so overwhelming. Kind of stupid, but that's why.

You should have gotton on your knees and lowered you head like they were royalty. I'm sure they would like that better.
But I give you props for not asken for an autograph. They get tired of that.


And how the hell did they not know where to get tickets??? They have all gone there for 4, temple 5 years. And it says ticket window or whatever where you buy them.
