re: To all jabronies who have problems with the LSU student section:

I'm not sure if you really intended this for me. However if so you should know I did not attend LSU nor have I ever been to Baton Rouge. I live in Toronto and watch games on occasion when I can get them. I am not a lifelong LSU fan but have recently grown found of the program. I was merely pointing out that the global perception of the student body is certainly not what I would want for my school and offering what I see as the only real recourse for the administration to deal with the problem.

No more like stupid enough to come ruffle your internet panties here on TD.
To my Toronto friend:
We don't really care what you guys think of our Academic institutions up there in America's hat. If I wanted to go to a school that I could brag about being a classy academic institution I would have done just that right after I took the stick out of my arse. I rather spend my college years the right way, down south in Baton Rouge with the hottest babes and the coldest brews. I appreciate you tuning in to watch the Tigers. I bet we sound real good on TV.

The student section has gotten so much lamer just in the past several years. It was way rowdier even in 2008 when we had a pretty bad season and went 8-5. I don't remember the student section emptying out to the extent is has been recently during any of those games except for the Troy game.
And STTDB is just stupid. Thanks to the majority of students being absolute morons, the song that got the entire crowd more pumped up than anything else is no longer allowed to be played. There used to be nothing better than the opposing team taking a timeout while LSU was on defense, the band playing Neck, and the crowd going nuts for our defense afterwards. I find it hard to believe that most of the students in the stands are real fans or actually love LSU. They'd rather pretend like they're badasses because they don't have their parents around to stop them from saying bad words. It's juvenile. To be fair, many students really do care and never leave early and cheer the entire game even in blowouts against teams like UAB. Those students are deserving of calling themselves LSU fans.
And as for the beach balls on Saturday, that was pitiful. With the defense on the field against ranked opponent in what is always a great game, most of the students were more concerned with hitting a piece of plastic than they were with watching the game and making noise.
I'm not an old man who hates fun. I'm a pretty recent graduate of LSU, and I actually would love for the student section to be as fun and rowdy as it used to be. There is nothing more fun than hearing the crowd roar continuously and getting into the opponents' heads. What the student section seems to no longer understand is that rowdy and fun doesn't equal yelling ridiculous profanities to every song the band plays and hitting beach balls. Rowdy and fun equals being loud for every defensive snap, staying the entire game, and making Tiger Stadium hell for the opponent.

i personally do think too many people leave the games early especially when we are playing SEC schools but i dont think its something that will change. The school has sucked the life out of the student section... period

The beach balls are terrible I personally popped one because lets face it this is not a dam Phish show. I feel the same way about the wave. I love how unique we are in Tiger Stadium. I would love for 2013 to be 1988 or 2003 but it just isn't and will never be that way again.
I can tell you from experience that our student body is less and less Louisiana based and drawing more and more out of state kids. Most of my friends are from Texas, Georgia, Florida, Illinois, Alabama, Mississippi, etc. Therefore you have a very large amount of students who may love to cheer for LSU football but just do not understand all of our history. Because of this the results are a less prideful student body. It is just simple demographics. I do agree with you that crowd noise is very important and the team does need us to be as loud as we can but you have to be a realist when it comes to understanding the current student body at LSU.

frick just bring back 2006. shite that was enough. or just stay for the entire game, its pretty fricking easy.
the very reason we cant play neck is because of this bullshite chant. its stupid. the people arguing that "its classless" are stupid too. we dont hate it because its "classless" we hate it because its a stupid fricking chant that got neck banned.

ooooeeeeoooo you suck was also banned which blows as well. We naturally add a little flavor to our band it has been around forever if we all of a sudden stopped it then it would not be the same maybe we should ask Scott Van Pelt what he thinks about that? Maybe the band should get a little more creative and bust out some tastier tunes to keep us off balance? Something other than asking the other team to blow us would come from it I am sure.
One thing we cannot argue about is that you bring a student from any school in the nation to ANY LSU game they will walk away very impressed no matter what goes on in there. So lets all sit back and enjoy another gem of a season and appreciate the mystique we have in Tiger Stadium while trying not to s on to many Tiger D's

Without students there would be no team to cheer for. Guess you guys forget that those are students playing on saturdays. And they probably curse also. Its just words. Why people get mad over some words is beyond me.
People complaining were students at one point that cursed in cheers. a-hole ashole ha ha ha ha ha doesnt ring a bell?

No I came here to find intelligent conversations about how the first BCS rankings are going to shape up. Instead I got a bunch of old goobs pouting about the student section. Your epic post count either makes you either a nerd or a failed attempt at a back alley abortion. Pick one.

Look here Luke, keep your weak sauce.......Yoda doesn't need it.
Seriously, I get your generational bone-picking, but you render yourself toothless when you begin taking the punk angle.
Be careful, I wove in some symbolism there.....may sprain your brain.

The current student section is the WORST in my lifetime - which includes the student sections of the early 1990's.
Absolutely no creativity, not very loud, but excelling at embarrassing yourselves.
Just sayin
