He's 70 and a big LSU basketball fan but turned the game off because he was disgusted. I texted him and said "hell of a comeback by our Tigers" and my phone rang like 10 seconds later. "Wait they won that game?"

That's about when I quit watching. I should have known.

I turned it off as well.

I flipped back and dude missed his 1st free throw at end of reg.

I turned it off again.

You are welcome.

So he’s not allowed to watch anymore? That’s what I read

My son said he turned it off and he called BS on me.

Guilty. Of course, I have 2 year old twins with bronchitis, so I have a slight excuse. Can’t wait to see the highlights.

I’m guilty of the same. I’m ashamed of myself

I decided to go grab some groceries with about 3 mins left. Started getting texts with about 30 seconds left in the game from my brother saying "ohhhh shite." Started watching on Watch ESPN pushing my buggy around slowly in people's way not giving a damn. Go around frickers!

Does your dad leave games early when he attends?

He probably hasn't been to a football game in 20 years. He's not a fan of the huge crowds. I take him to a few basketball and baseball games a year. He hates watching the Tigers get blown out though.

Pops was actually a LSU athlete as was my grandfather.

I was trying to leave the bar at the 3 min mark but thankfully my girlfriend is a slow beer drinker. Hell of a come back by the boys in purple.

Hell, I did too....that was a horrific first 37 minutes. But......I switched back 30 seconds later cause I'm a masochist. And glad I did. Thank you Skyler Mays!!
