re: Non Alumni LSU Fans

While some of us on this website are alums and some of us are not, don't we all share the common thread of our love for LSU? A lot of people are lucky enough to attend LSU and many many more are not able to many circumstances.


Wouldn't it be more productive for us as fans of LSU to work together to make LSU a better place?

Think of how great LSU would be without NON ALUMNI FANS

Yeah, we would be called Tulane!


And why don't you callout the student section? They seem to be the ones making the biggest asses of themselves.

I am not an alum of LSU. I was born and raised in BR and spent every Saturday since I was old enough to know anything watching the Tigers. Due to finances when I graduated from H.S. LSU or any other college was out so I joined the military. I am as big a fan now as I ever was. I totally understand what you are saying about all of the negativity, but this is a rant blog. Louisiana will always be home, these will always be my peeps, and the tigers will always be the only team. Somedays I will be excited, somedays I will be mad enough to kill, but I will always love LSU. We LSU fans are a unique group. That's how its always been and that's how it will always be.

As an LSU alum i have to say, you're full of shite.

The arse hats that sit there and do nothing are the ones that piss me off.

What does alumni and fan have to do with each other? In a word, nothing!

Well whitelightnin18, looks like you've succeeded in getting your point across!?!?!?!

I grew up in Louisiana and have been inundated with Tiger athletics my entire life. I have cheered through the ups and downs with my family for 30 years now. My parents and grandparents instilled in me a love of the university through sports. Your false sense of entitlement about somehow being a better fan than me (or being less of an "arse" than me) because you are an alum is utterly, well, asinine. I'm proud of my degree, too. What difference does it make where I received it?
BTW I went to school in Mississippi (not Ole Miss thank God) and had to listen to the LSU hate from Ole Miss and State fans everyday. Everyday I staunchly defended my Tigahs. Did you ever have to deal with these kind of situations going to LSU?

Using you're confused rationale, I guess I'm a better fan than you since I have been on here since July and have nearly 1000 posts. You and your 21 posts since Nov 2007.

I guarantee you I am a bigger fan than most who ever attended the university. It's probably a little sad how devastated I am about our losses and how excited I am over wins (in all of our sports). I lose sleep over it. I have also never given our team a "bad name". My flag flies proudly most every day here in Austin. I represent "your" university with pride and dignity. Why don't you analyze yourself instead of casting stones at others.

I agree that there are great football fans who never attended the university, my dad being one of them.

My only question is, how many of those fans actually care about LSU in anything other than athletics?

This isn't a flame either... just consider it a survey.

I'd love nothing more than my son going to LSU one day. But to be quite honest, I could care less how the Math department is doing.
