i thought about this the other night. How awesome would it be to get a good, local guy (i stress the word "good") to write a solid song that talks about LSU baseball? I'm not talking about something as lame as John Fred's, "baseball at the box". that thing needs to be retired. It'd be awesome to have something sound similar to "back home in omaha" but about LSU specifically.

not trying to turn this into a "what can we bitch about now?" thread.

just stating a thought that i had the other night while at the game

ESPN are a bunch of damn fools for not using "Back Home in Omaha" on their broadcast anymore. That OAR song sucks.

I'd love to see Todd Thibaud do an LSU remake.

We could start with just a highlight reel like the football team does. Set to the Back Home in Omaha song.

Can worry about someone writing a song later.

Solid idea by the OP.

Been away from La for 20 some odd years, so I apologize for never having heard the song.

Played Legion ball for John Fred as a kid.

Where can I hear it?

It's been around for longer than 20 years. I'd say late 80s, very early 90s at the latest.

in all seriousness, I bet he would do it.


But we need to write it first. Easiest thing is to use the exact Back Home in Omaha song but rewriting the lyrics to LSU that way no one is writing any music
