re: What was the best 4-5 yr period to go to LSU?

quote:

---

85-90 drinking age 18 (last year but we were all grandfathered in), Shaq, Hodson, Big Ben, CJ and Highland road outside campus was rocking.

Earthquake game, Final 4, UNLV and Marymount 140 point games, Georgetown in the Superdome...

LSU throwing keggers for the freshmen and free crawfish at the caterie once a week.

Bayou, Chimes, TJs, Library, Cotton Club, Murphys, Bengal, Xanthus, Cillys, SI and Fred's.

Fast track, rallys, weinershnitzel, original Louie's, gattis, Haagen das, IHOP and Rocky IV at the theater behind Murphy's

'86-'90 for me...what CAD said. Solid in Football (last season was the fall of '89), Basketball was truly a big stage event despite lack of title. Baseball was having success and games at the Box hadn't reached "event" status, still fun. Seem to remember students sat down LF line close to visitors dugout and pen.

I was in the Greek scene, probably what I would call the hayday for that as well, FWIW.
