As a current UL (the one in Lafayette, not Louisville) student, I have to say that I am pretty embarrassed by this thread, in that it solves NOTHING.

We'll always be looked upon as idiots by LSU fans brah. I wasn't trying to shake the world man...just stating how I felt about bandwagon fans. Were you expecting something more?

And the truth is that a large portion of LSU's current "hardcore" fanbase came on-board after 03. They're obvious. They're more pompous. More obnoxious. Less tolorable.


Who else were these people pulling for back in the day( pre 2003)? Michigan? All of a sudden(post 2003)these people found football as their fave sport? C'mon now. They were always LSU fans or "pulled" for LSU anyway. Maybe they didn't wear the LSU gear everyday, and talk so much shite, but they were LSU fans.

They're more pompous- this I agree with

More obnoxious- we've been voted this for YEARS... way past the nineties and 2000's

Less tolorable.- I do kinda understand what your pain is, but it's what happens. My friends and family can't stand some of the assholes in our section.... it's a constant barrage of ignorance. BUT, it's the same feeling I had when I sat in Bryant Denny, Ben Hill Griffin, and Mississippi States crib.

It's both sides, bro. Like I've said before, I'm a diehard Cajun fan but I do pull for LSU too (unless they are playing the Cajuns). For some reason, a lot of people have a problem with that.

So because I said how obnoxious LSU fans usually are, I 'm not a good fan?

You pretty much hit the nail on the coffin. When you start to win, you get your share of retards who claim to be fans like you. An example would be the 2006 run of the N.O. Saints. I used to go to games in the Dome when it wasnt even half full back in the late 90s. After the 2006, you would have thought that the WHOLE city consisted of die hard Saints fans.

Naw, you are probably a great UsL fan.




I still think you are a little misguided in thinking that this vitriol and these attitudes are an LSU thing only. I accept ALL kinds of Tiger fans, good, bad, and Cajun friendly.

You must've missed my post earlier in this thread where I said that all fanbases have assholes...

So, that therefore makes me a good fan now for acknowledging this fact...

man I'll be glad when this thread dies. Every team college-nfl has their band-wagon fans. Everybody loves a winner. Tickets sales will forever be linked to winning. But just wanted to point out them die-hard Raider fans. I know they were 0-0 but they have sucked for the past few years and them crazy dress up guys keep coming back. You gotta love LOYALTY.
