Are you going to help out the school departments that are having major cutbacks as well?

No, none of them concern or entertain me.

LSU is staying right where it is academically, at least until we're out of the recession.

i'm in for $100 also. I think we could get the money together in time. Even if the money is able to be raised in time, would a pep band even be able to go from a logistical standpoint ... available plane, seats in the stadium, hotel rooms, etc...

this needs to happen. we need an official thread about this with all of the emails and everything so that the word gets out

people wont read all 4 pages of this thread most likely

i understand cutting the full band from one game...but not sending even a small pep band is bullshite because they have known about this game for months and months and this money should have been set aside long ago. LSU as a university is having to make budget cuts, but the football team and TAF are doing just fine IMO

send the band to Seattle!

Funny how we've always sent a pep band to every away game for as long as I can remember ... and a full band to one SEC game for as long as I can remember, yet less than a year after Alleva gets here from Duke this somehow gets cut out.

Some of the other SEC schools send their full bands to more than one road game, yet LSU can't afford to bus TGBFTL to Oxford or Tuscaloosa? Alleva sucks....plain and simple. The dude has no clue when it comes to LSU's traditions.

No, someone just needs to start a website that accepts donations to help pay for at least the full band trip to an SEC game.


IMO, it would be be better to take donations to send the pep band to UW. Sure the full band at one road game is nice, but no band at all for washington is a travesty. What if we could get everyone from TD to pledge 25 dollars? That should cover any expenses.

NO. I ain't going to see the mathletes decipher some numbers. I'm going to see the Football Tigers. Mathletes pay their own way. English Department stays home and corrects spelling ont he Rant.
