Question? Are people that leave early less a fan than someone who is so plastered he dosn't remember the game or somebody doing the wave when the game is going on?

Its absolutely true that a lot of the diehard LSU fans have been replaced with people that use saturdays as just a gathering to shmooze and entertain friends and customers.TAF along with the recent great success has made the games clearly a status symbol that one has to partake in to be in the social pecking order of this state.Its also very true that these folks give much more money than the average fan,therefore earning the right to do as they please.I for one thank them for coming and helping my team achieve these great feats in what Skippy calls the ARMS RACE that is college sports.I hope to be seeing them leave early for years to come..

But I am sure that when you turned 16 you were given a car and prolly no pos either...and with this job @ 16 did you pay for any bills or was that your spending money....Don't answer b/c I know the answer..Soo yes you had it very easy and prolly had everything handed to you...but thats not your fault.

my parents are wealthy (but this doesn't make me wealthy) - but I stay the whole game. Your point is moot.

the soft part of our fans were the students in the student section that tried to start the wave.

the wave should never happen in tiger stadium.

I agree they have helped LSU by leaps and bounds..I just wish someone would teach them the tradition and that they might have the respect and love for the game to stay and CHEER.
