"Hell, I remember the "oranges game" against FSU in the early 90's."

The only "oranges game" vs. FSU that I remember that meant anything was in 1982

Bama is the most overrated #1 since BYU in the 80's. They've only played 3 teams with winning records (Georgia, Kentucky and Ole Miss). The remaining 6 teams have a average of 3 wins this year. Bunk.

I found some flying pig toys online. When we win Saturday I will send one to some Bama friends.

My bad. Wrong key. Didn't make it for that game, but had just built my first house and had a housewarming party (wifes thing) and I was huddled around the radio all night long.

I just remembered that there was a significant event that took place at the end of the game that we were razzed about. Who's volunteering to do that this time?

A housewarming party? Oh, man. I hope you were living in Alaska at the time and not Louisiana. That was one of those truly great games played in Tiger Stadium.

Again, a housewarming party?

SO someone answer my question damnit!

OK .. I am assuming that something was said about LSU will win when pigs fly .. and that when LSU DID win it was the headline in the paper about PIGS FLYING. RIght or not??

HOw the hell could I not remember this shite???

I remember the "Oranges Game" in 1970 when LSU beat Ole Miss 61-17. It's immortalized in the "Ballad of Archie Who?"

Tiger Stadium will rock, and pigs will fly.

Makes sense to me. I'm all for shakin' and bacon.

Seems like I remember a writer named Tommy Hicks writing in his column in the Mobile Press just before the LSU-Bama game in 1993 that pigs would fly over Alabama if LSU won. Well, pigs flew and Tommy Hicks wound up eating crow.

I thought it was the Morning Advocate's Sam King making the comment in his column...then having to eat crow for a long, long time afterwards....
