I was in Mumbai, India last week and ran into a guy wearing an LSU hat. I said "GEAUX TIGERS" and he just smiled and said "HI". Found out later that he was from Louisiana but did't go to LSU...so I guess that's understandable.

Your response to this, and the ONLY response to this is "Geaux Tigers". Not "Hey Man" or even "Alright!" I thought ya'll knew this!!!!
I'm gonna have to go out on a limb and disagree with you. I don't think it's a given that "Geaux Tigers" is a natural response in return.

I have given plenty of "Geaux Tigers!" in my time (travel quite a bit) but have never received one. If I did...especially if I was GT'd off guard (which would most likely be the case), I'd probably respond with, "Hell Yeah!" and then strike up a conversation with the source.

"Geaux Tigers" is the response I have always given and gotten.
My son, however, was in NYC last summer and had two different gentlemen approach him to talk about LSU. No, he doesn't have teh ghey!

I was in Vegas last week and wore LSU gear all week on the strip, not one Geaux Tigers, but leaving out Thursday in the Airport I got two, one from a couple from the parish and another from an instructor at the LSU Fire and Emergency Training facility.

BTW: I always respond with GEAUX TIGERS!

I was in Mexico a few year back and gave a guy wearing a LSU hat a "Geaux Tigers" and he responded back with a "Hell Yeah". I thought it was an acceptable response. What do you think?

I usually say alright or hey, unless I was the one who initiated the Go Tigers. So

I drop Geaux Tigers whenever I see anyone here in Alabama with anything Tiger on, but I was in the LaGuardia Airport and said it to someone wearing an LSU hat and a national champions shirt and they just smiled...I'll never waste my time saying it again.

This reminds me of the Florida Gators "Gator Nation" commercial I've seen aired during CBS CFB telecast. If you haven't seen it-

We do this too with "Geaux Tigers" and should do it.

I've always say or scream geaux tigers when i see LSU Nation around the country. Not in Louisiana, everyone is an LSU fan. I Especially love yelling "geaux Tigers" in Alabama or Texas, around Bammers and BEVOs.

This is my standard response, so it gets my thumbs up as an acceptable reply!

I've had a real bad "response" rate with this in both Houston and in Pensacola now. If I see anybody with any LSU apparel on, they'll get a GEAUX TIGERS. More often than not, I'll get NOTHING back at all. ......
