he knows it's lame but is defending it anyway because people get all bent out of shape over it. the old v. young argument is just ignorant


Look, I wish they'd tone down the profanity, but I'm not about to complain about the student section after Saturday.

And grown men bitching about their profanity because the administration refuses to let the band play their favorite songs is about as lame as you can get.

Someone correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Tiger Rag banned because it had "a-hole a-hole" added to it.


Right, my bad. Still lame.

Owe-e-owe got banned for "you suck," which is super lame.

oh, you mean the former students who sat in that same section before you that have enjoyed that song their entire lives that don't get to hear it anymore because of the current class aren't qualified to say something to them about it. okay, gotcha. you haven't got much rattling around up there, do you?

All true (to an extent--the school exists to educate the students, not to indulge them). But none of it constitutes justification for behaving like vulgar jerks.


You're right, but to deny the importance of the student section is ridiculous. You speak as if you were a well behaved student who never drank, cursed or thought improperly of women back in the day. Give me a break. Does the drunken vulgarity make the student section look bad? Absolutely. Does the exodus of the older fans after halftime, coupled with the late arrival of that majority, exemplify a half assed fanhood. Absolutely. Don't you dare brag about the excellent atmosphere that death valley imposes upon opponents and then bitch about the student section. That atmosphere would be non existent without the students.

Frats are students.

Let's get rid of the T-shirt fans if we get rid of anyone.

I'm pretty tired of hearing the BRCC grad with an sub 90 I.Q. bitching about "Jefferson being a dumbass" the entire game.

And I'll ask you again, is the vulgar language worth losing traditional songs.

Uh, I'm a former grad who just happens to have season tickets near the student section.

I'm in the same boat as you. I just don't whine about things like a little girl.

And I'll respond again. Take it up with the administration. It was under their order that the songs were banned. Really, banning a song because students say "you suck" is beyond ridiculous.

LSU student section is the best section in TS. We keep the stadium loud from beginning to end while the Tiger defense is on the field, we arrive as soon as the gates open, and stay until after the Tigers go inside the locker room.

The only negatives are the vulgar chants.. But regardless. We keep Tiger Stadium rockin'!

So to all you people bitching about how bad of fans the students are, and that we curse and leave early


I haven't seen that many people leaving early this year but I've only made it to the big games so far. What I have noticed is that most of the faggy booing our own team's players (your 'classmates') is from the student section and for that I say to you "For shame."

If you want to be treated like an adult, act like one. Constant cursing doesn't prove your manhood or your maturity. It just makes you look like a bunch of drunken children.

People don't need (or want) to hear vulgarity. It's that simple.

Another thread justifying the behavior of the student section

i just don't like when it gets out of hand and traditional songs like Tiger Rag get axed.

I would like to ask the students if it is worth having all of the good songs banned?


quote:

loud =/= widespread vulgar addons that get good songs banned

if the student section is responsible for getting a song he likes banned then he has every right to complain about it

Well that's the ironic thing. "Suck that Tiger Dick" is much more vulgar than "You suck," yet Neck was played at least twice on Saturday.

I complete disagree with this.

The vast majority of boos were coming from sections other than the students.
