re: Whats your favorite Golden Girl performance?

The one where I had a field pass and got my picture taken with them.

Back in the good old days (1958) when you could still do this:

whoa there good buddy.
Were you a student in '58??? - I was starting my junior year in '58 - loved the Chinese Bandits = and the original Golden Girls.

My granddaughter was a Golden Girl '05 - '08. She is still involved with the alumini GGs.

I think they had 100 girls in the show then - stretched from goal line to goal line.

What game was that?? - I didn't miss any home games that year for sure.

Pictures would more likely result in the whacking off you propose.

Fun fact: a neurologist on the Northshore is an ex Golden Girl. If you have migraines she'll fix you up.

Also an ex-Golden Girl who is a gastroenterologist in Metairie, if you should need, or just want, a colon exam.

My favorite performance: Nov. 30, 1974: LSU vs. Utah, temperature at kickoff 38 degrees and dropping toward freezing. At that time the band had no cold weather gear and all the GGs had was a cape. They shivered through the first half (though many sought the comfort of the first aid station on the west side). Taking the field for the half-time show, they piled their capes into my arms behind the goalpost. Then they put on their game faces and danced and smiled through the ten minute half-time show. When they marched off the field their demeanor quickly changed, and they descended on me for those capes like a pack of hyenas on the fresh carcass of a wildebeest.

I was not a student in 58, but was a senior in high school and attended at least a couple of games in 58. I don't remember which game the bandits motiff was used, but one of the Golden Girls from that year is a friend of mine and even at 85 she still looks terrific.

Oregon State, in the rain, they danced right in front of the student section. Vividly remember it from just a few rows from the field

That was the streaker game too. The band stayed and kept playing in the rain during the delay as the student section danced. I vividly remember the streaker being escorted off the field completely naked and chanting ´LSU, LSU!´ while handcuffed.
