Ole Miss, Halloween Night 1959. South end upper deck directly above the visitor tunnel. It was wild that night. And that is the truth.

Also my freshman year. We beat TCU 10-0. We, of course, were #1, they were #9.

My 1st two games were blowouts of aTm and Baylor in 1969.

I also attended the Florida and Notre Dame beatdowns in 1971.

My college career at LSU started in 1972.

vs. FSU in 1983...day game

we lost 35-40.

had 2 tickets given to us by Mack Brown, who was an assistant coach at the time. sat close to the 50 yd line about halfway between the press box and the field. as a kid i didnt appreciate at the time how good those seats were...needless to say i haven't had seats that good since.

Florida State in 1982. Students threw oranges on the field as the clock ticked down because we were invited to play in the Orange Bowl. It was also foggy as hell during the game.

I remember seeing LSU play UGA when I was a kid....79 or 80 maybe? Charles Alexander #4 (yes our DT's dad) was the RB and I remember seeing Hokie Gajan run back a kickoff for a TD.

I think it was all in the same game, but I wouldn't swear to it...

1982 vs Tulane. Sat through biggest rainstorm I've ever been in. Watched LSU lose to huge underdog. Saw a Tulane player take a bite out of an orange that was thrown on the field and throw it back. Horrible experience.

'72 or '73 against Miss. St. My mom's cousin was a wide receiver for Moo St. LSU beat them and there were oranges being thrown on the field because LSU was headed to the Orange Bowl. Not like Fla St. as far as quantity when I was in school but to a 10 year old was pretty interesting. I got to go down to the visitor's locker room entrance and wait for my mom's cousin after their loss. Those State fans were still ringing cowbells after the loss which hurt my ears. Kind of wierd in retrospect.

Thanks for the beer. I have 3 NC on my watch. We moved to BR in 1958. I was 12 and went to every home game that season with my Dad and two bros. What an intro to Tiger FB, thanks Dad. Best Good Times with my Dad.

9-0 I think. TCU had an All-American RB named Spikes. More Good Times. We were No1 til Tennessee.
