re: What are your worst memories from any LSU football game that you attended?

Capital One Bowl in '09 was definitely not fun. Wet, cold, muddy, and LSU just could not move the dang ball without falling on their faces. I wasn't surprised that they lost, but it didn't make me feel any better. They probably would've won had the field not been a giant Slip 'n Slide.
I don't consider that a game anyway, so it doesn't count. A game is meant to be played between 2 teams and 1 of them didn't show up that day.

93 auburn
94 S Carolina
96 Bama
First 2 and a half quarters of the Houston game in 96. Mid 3rd quarter on, Kevin Faulk single handedly saved DiNardo from a signature loss to open the season.

I also won't count the national championship game because I fully expected that result if Les kept running the same offense, I felt like the last half of the season we did nothing to get better as an offense and even the first half of the season we never took the training wheels off.
In no particular order
1) The interception game
2) The 3 points against Auburn in 2006 (which would foreshadow the offensive conservatism that Les would run in the Jefferson years)
3) The Tenn game and the debacle.....see #2's conservatism (do you see the trend here with Les Miles' offenses?)
4) 2007 Arkansas: I thought for the 3rd year in a row a national championship team wasn't going to play for the national championship

No it wasn't 30-7 I know because I forgot to mention this game. That's when we were whooping Auburn all game until the last drive and they missed the leading extra point but we got flagged for something that happens just about every extra point attempt and got to re-kick and won and preceded to go undefeated.

Interception/Interference game of '06
frick Auburn
The UGA '04 game was the worst.
Xavier Carter took a knee like a boss on the 1 yard line. David Greene went like 6-8 for 200 somethign yards and 4 or 5 touchdowns, i know i'm exaggeratting it a bit, but really not that much. And their fans were not too happy after we took them out twice the year before. They let us know how they felt before and after the game. wasn't fun.
The capital one bowl against Iowa. Flynn finally gets to play, no one knows why, Randall actually did well the first two drives he played, and then never played again. the ending needs no explanation.

UGA 2005...I signed a lease on an apartment in Atlanta two days before that game. The day before I found out looters broke into my house in NO, looted it, took a shite, piss, and threw up on the floor. Matt Flynn's pick six was like the looter took a shite on my head. And I had to live in that town for 6 months following. UGA shite everywhere there. I would have moved back the Sunday after the game had I not signed the lease.
Hilarious.

Lsu vs Texas A&M in 1970. Aggies had 4th and 44 with LSU up 18 to 13. Paul Lyons and another Tiger went for the interception and collided leaving Carl Roaches alone to catch the ball and beat LSU 20 to 18. My dad was at the game in a box seat with the former ad Skipper Heard. My mom had to grab him to keep him from going onto the field to tackle Roaches. He was a very spontanious person, lol. He would have been very famous but mom saved the day. The whole stadium was in total shock.
Good story. I had never heard of this particular debacle. So much hidden lore in Tiger football history.

Ronnie Lewis missing xtra point range field goal that would have beaten Alabama in early 80's. Game ended in a tie.
That was '85.
Some others for me:
'75 vs OM (13-17L): we were having a bad year but I lived among a lot of Rebel fans so a win over the Rebs would've been nice. Of course, the 45-0 beatdown in '76 in TS helped ease the pain.
'78 vs UGA (17-24L): we were ahead at half-time in TS but Lindsay Scott returned the 2nd half KO for a TD.
'84 vs ND (22-30L): I think two of our 3 DL starters were hurt (Barbay in opener vs UF and Thomas early in this game). Just a frustrating afternoon game at TS in a rebound year. Dalton's long TD run early in the 2nd half was still a thing of beauty.
'86 vs OM (19-21L): Down 9-21 at the half. David Browndyke kicked 4 FG's but missed a short one at the end for the win.
'89 vs UF (13-16L): UF missed a FG at the end and it looked like it would end in a tie but (don't recall why) their kicker got a mulligan and made it with no time on the clock.
'08 vs OM (13-31L): probably the worst effort I've seen by a (capable) Tiger team in TS.
'09 vs PSU (17-19L) in the CapOne: was this game really in FL? Cold, rained like mad before the game, field was a bog, the lone osprey over-flying the stadium before the game picked me to poop on, and we loose in the end.

Gross but funny, we had 50 yardline seats to bama in death valley a few years ago, i was on the aisle, bama guy across the aisle from me. He had to pay a fortune for those tickets, some drunk old lsu lady was coming down the stairs, stops between us and throws up right there in the aisle, mostly in his direction splattering on his shoes, if i wasn't hammered the smell would have driven me away, he just dealt with it.
That and Rick Clauson beating us after Katrina. Would punch him in the face if we ever met.

Tjis one was bad, but I still had a lot of fun. Plus their trip to Tiger stadium was very meaningful for us:
(3) Virginia Tech 2002. The night before the game, the rarely used Virginia Grenadiers appeared in flimsy riot gear (maybe just Walmart track suits with ironed on patches) and treated the LSU faithful like G8 hooligans. Apparently because we drank their shockingly limited supply of beer. The day of the game, I sat in an endzone upper deck with the approximate slope of Mt. Everest's north face. Two very corpulent VT fans were perched just above me like menacing boulders. Early in the contest, we returned a punt for a TD, which was called back due to some mysterious penalty. The rest of the afternoon was a numbing marathon of offensive (both senses) ineptitude, high altitude sun stroke, and self-pity, interrupted only by the unspeakably disturbing sight of sixty thousand hillbillies doing the hokey pokey in unison;
This one was pure misery for me:
(2) Ole Miss 2009. My experience in Oxford: Friday night at the world-renowned (OK, mid-south renowned) Library, where I confirmed for all time that Ole Miss women were (a) absolutely gorgeous; and (b) absolutely unapproachable, at least to the likes of my crew (or any other outsider who lacks an encyclopedic knowledge of the Mississippi secondary school system and its various clans and geneologies); Saturday: arrived on campus at 8 AM - it was empty, watched a part of a KKK rally (I swear on my life this is not hyperbole or confabulation, there WAS a Klan rally that day on the Ole Miss campus - to their credit, the Ole Miss student body was out in force to protest, or at least show minimal enthusiasm), discovered that the Grove was grossly overrated, watched a friend commandeer an abandoned Grove tailgate and take in some TV while noshing on unattended chicken, tried and failed to blot out the disappointment of the Grove with beer, went into the stadium, heard a ten year old scream "Call a timeout, call a timeout!" in a deep northern Louisiana accent, stared on in open-mouthed disbelief as no timeout was called, then the infamous spike, then walked out of the stadium in a haze of puzzlement.
And not just the spike...from Sandra Bullock leading Hottie Tottie on the big scren, to being outplayed most of the game, the two missed fades for two point conversion, and the HORRIBLE play calling leading to the spike......just miserable!

Miles holding up a #1 and fist pumping when running in at the half. A friend turned to me and said, "He might want to win the game first". After the debacle, I puked I was so upset.

The worst I have ever felt walking out of Tiger Stadium is Arkansas 2007. At least when we lost Southern Miss in 1994, I was pretty sure we were gonna fire Curley, which made me happy. Florida 1993 was pretty awful, but kind of funny in a gallows humor sort of way by the third quarter.
But the two games that really stick with me are 1994 Texas A&M and 1997 Auburn.
94 A&M, LSU was outplaying the Aggies, back when they were good and we stunk. Down by 4 or 5, LSU had the ball near midfield with under 3 minutes to play and 4th and 4, I think. LSU punted. A&M ran out the clock. I had an aneurysm. The play call was so unbelievable, A&M sent out a 4-3 defense to defend the punt. NO ONE could be so stupid as to punt the ball in that situation and only one timeout left. But Curley was.
97 Auburn, Cecil Collins rushed for about 220 yards. Yet, on 3rd and 3, with a chance to win the game, we chose to have Tyler run the ball. Dameuyene Craig then drove the ball what seemed to be 100 yards for the game winning score. Can’t even understand how we lost that game.

Funny story about that one: Had to go to the game with some friends of mine who had family that were big time ND fans and had tickets to it, after the game I dreaded going back to the car to ride with them only to see them with all gloomy faces and pouting. I said what is with you'all, just whitewashed the Tigers in TS (score wasn't really that close) and you look like they lost. They responded: "yeah, but we still have Gerry Faust as coach, as long as he is we are bummed". I realized the ND faithful hated this coach, just wasn't a ND guy I guess!

Luckily didn't go to this one, was a freinds bacholar party that night but this was inexplicable loss to watch on TV, almost as bad as 97 loss to them!

This was most misirable game to attend, though I remember didn't get cold until after halftime but was still soaked from the rain before kickoff. Somebody should have been arrested for the field condition!

The clock mismanagement game at ole miss had to be the most painful. I turned my Lsu jacket inside out when leaving the stadium. It's the only time in my life I have ever been embarrassed to be a tiger fan. I don't mind loosing to a better opponent or even by mistakes by out guys, but when a guy making over 3 million embarrasses us I have a problem with that. Add to that the debacle in New Orleans and its easy to see why there isnt universal support for miles. I love him
As a recruiter and an Integrity guy I just don't like him having the final say on game management or play calling, he runs the ball too Damm much.
