That's because you don't get the reference. The corndog reference has NOTHING to do with food, or food served at an LSU tailgate. It has everything to do with the "carny" (read state fair or carnival) sound that some South Louisianians have when they talk. They sound like a carnival barker or one of those 'carny people'. Have you ever listened to Buddy Songy? He sounds just like that
This may be the dumbest explanation I have ever heard for opposing fans referring to LSU fans as corndogs. It was stolen by Auburn fans b/c they lack any originality. And other dumbass sec fanbases followed...showing their lack of originality also. I mean seriously why would anyone want to follow what an Auburn fan would do. I personally don't care.
Also I find it rather comical that another SEC fanbase would make fun of a Louisiana accent. Go to Jawga, bama, SC and listen to their accents.

Actually it was stolen by UGA fans first, and then LSU proceeded to beat the dogshit out of them in the 2003 SECCG. That shut them up. BUT the problem is that Auburn fans picked up the corndog flag in 2004, and we all know how that game went.
If LSU had beaten AU in 2004, the whole LSU = corndog thing would've died a quite death.

Yeah, a lot of these Vol fans up here in east Tennessee question the intelligence of LSU fans and Lousianians in particular. Of course, fried bologna is good food to these folks.

Auburn/Georgia what's the difference
I am willing to bet more corndogs are consumed in every other sec state than Louisiana. It really makes no sense at all. Typical backwood redneck logic

Not to mention nutritious.

I had a Bama fan talk shite to me this weekend in Birmingham and he said to go back to my trailer in Baton Rouge... had to inform that dumbass that BR has no trailers unlike his shithole town.
B-ham might not have trailers either... but its still a shithole town.

what do you expect from Auburn fans? They believe that rolling hills and pine thickets are referred to geographically as "plains".

no, much older than that, the oklahoma thing was adapted word for word by an Auburn fan back in the 90's. I first saw it on Wayne's board probably 97, 98 time frame (IIRC)

That's what's so galling - they could have taken the rip (by, I'm reasonably certain was a Sooner fan, or perhaps a Longhorn) on Nebraska, which was something relevant (corndogs, Corn Huskers, corn) and a simple little jab at the fans, and tweaked it to say, "Gumbo", "Fried Alligator", "Okra", "Pig entrails", SOMETHING that would have been expected on a LSU tailgating menu. But whoever it was didn't do that - he just did a global find and replace, to change "Nebraska", to LSU, then posted the now infamous corndog insult.
I'm insulted it got so big because it is NOT relevant to anything we do or to what we are. It is inexcusable because there is as much material to use to take shots at us as the entire rest of the deep south combined (possibly excepting Texas).

reminds me of the Seinfeld line about Tim Whatley converting to Judaism because of the jokes. The priest asked him if that offended him as a Jew, and he said, "no, it offends me as a comedian."

All of you are wrong. Auburn pegged LSU fans as corndogs stating that Tiger Stadium (and thus LSU fans) SMELL like corndogs. Well anything that is fried smells like fried...corndogs are fried. So yes, they are dumb and unoriginal. BUT...I usually tell them "If I smell like a corndog then why don't you eat me". Then again, I'm female and that is taken a lot better than say....a male saying it.

LSU: It's hard to remember a time when LSU was the Tennessee of the world: statistically pretty good, probably even really really good but really not relevant. But there was a time. And it was before Saban reminded these freaks that when you dedicate an entire state infrastructure to football and deep fryers it tends to gravitate excellence to these two things. LSU fans are dedicated. It used to be that I'd think of them as avatars of pure destruction, beings of might and terrible energy who flitted about, Diablo-like, raining down destruction in the pre-generated dungeons of Baton Rouge. This is false and does them ill. LSU fans are just like you and me. They are meat and bone and they get hungover, too. But they don't let this stop them. They simply don't care enough about the unpleasantness of being that insanely, disproportionately passionate about something. Not only do they not care, they are capable of directing that indifference to corporeal disharmony into a seething cauldron called Saturday night. They get over how illogical their behavior is. I cannot stress this enough. They overcome regular mundane laziness and comfort and strive towards a kind of greatness. If Mars were made of corndogs and BCS trophies there'd already be a Mike the Tiger cage there.
