My loving wife gave me one room in our new house to do whatever I want with, so here's what I'm working with so far. I'm extremely pumped as this is my first attempt at a man cave. As you can see I still have a lot of wall space. Any ideas on LSU decor? Pics welcome!





When I was much younger I thought it'd be cool to collect mini helmets from all SEC schools-years later I agree with the friends who told me it was a little over the top. The diamond grill sign is from the old Alex Box. (I also have a jar of dirt lol).



The helmet is as fake as fake can be. But the ball is signed by the likes of Billy Cannon, Charles Alexander, Jimmy Taylor and Jamie f*kn Howard. Gerald Keigley ('72 all-SEC wide receiver for you old-timers) signed in all caps. WTF.





I'd like to get a larger, more current photo of Tiger Stadium. Other two pics are Tracy Porter's pick 6 in SB XLIV and David Freese's walkoff HR in game 6 of the '11 world series.


Anything awesome in your home office? I'd love to see it!

Enjoy your day, all.

ETA: For the record I agree that the term "man cave" is lame and douchy, so for now I'm referring to it as starkiller base.

I would go for less piano before I worry about more tiger.

looks like you could use an R.C. Davis painting for sure. Either of these will do.

Man I am very happy for you don't get me wrong but you have a longgggggggggggggggg way to go!! Lose the piano and desk to start with. Hang big screen on your wall. Get a stereo with surround sound. Paint your walls purple and gold. Lose the carpet and put wood snap in floors(very cheap and will look nice), something dark. String some purple robe lights around the top. Will give a great effect. Get a huge sticker of the Tiger Eye and put it in the center of your room. If your wife truly gave that one room to you take it by the balls my man and go for it!! Good luck!

Thanks. I'd like it to still function as a workspace, but all that other stuff you mentioned will happen in due time-except maybe the purple and gold walls. I have dreams of getting fake field turf in here with the eye of the tiger on it.

This is but the beginning!

Get multiple TVs, or at least a couple of decent size HD monitors for the computer. You'll be happy you did it once March Madness and regionals/super regionals are going on. A bigger TV wouldn't hurt either, if that's possible for you. Good luck

Well the purple and gold can be light colors does not have to be screaming purple and gold. Would be a nice touch, just saying think about it. I do like your idea bout field turf that would be freaking awesome!

Looks good. I'd paint the walls white or some shade of yellow/gold. Paint is a cheap way to rapidly change the look of a room.

I've got a giant LSU helmet Fat Head in mine, "WIN" bar over the door, LSU clock, signed basketball, drink cups from bowl games and all SEC schools, and tons of Tiger knick-knacks.
