I have't missed a game since 1967. Was late for a game in 1984, but thats as close as i came to missing one. I have missed a lot of road games.

I know you're talking about current streaks, but the longest I ever had was 7.5 years from the beginning of the 1992 season through the middle of the 1999 season. 80-something games. Broke it for the road game at Kentucky in 1999.

2007-2012

I'm in grad school in Georgia now so I won't go to any games except Arky.

made it to every home gave from 82 through 92, but life got in the way and I can only say I have been to at least 2 home games every year since. Never had season tickets, but have plenty of friends/business associates that give me a few lower bowl, sideline tickets each year. If LSU would offer split season tickets (3- to 4- game packages), I would put in my order, but no way I can make every home game.

I have been to 2-3 games a year since '94 when I graduated. LSU was terrible in those days. However, I am on a 26 game winning streak since then. I have not been to a game where the Tigers have lost! The only non conf. games have been Oregon & La Tech. All of the others were SEC games. I pray the streak never ends!

I've made every Alabama-LSU game home and away, with three exceptions, since 1966 when Steve Sloan was Alabama's QB. That's 44 games. Like fine cognac, it is the best football I've seen. I have two for Bryant Denny this year. The 2011 game in Tuscaloosa is the finest football game I have ever seen, period.

The exceptions were my freshman college year at Vanderbilt (I finished the next seven years at LSU and LSU Medical), then twice once I was out in a medical practice and couldn't get anyone to cover the weekend. It helped that I trained at Univ of Alabama Hospital and could go out to Legion Field when I wasn't making much money.

Damn bro! I flew into Phoenix for that game, it was amazing getting to see my favorite two teams play in such a great game.

Haven't missed a home game since my freshman year in 1984. I had 2 or 3 close calls. I used to make one road game a year, but haven't been lately with the kids growing up.

Not missing a home game in 46 years! That's impressive!

Pretty good record here myself. I've made just about every SEC NIGHT game since 1972. There may have been a few misses in there somewhere, but not many.

As far as I'm concerned, LSU football IS about playing at night in Tiger Stadium. I make no apologies and am militant in my defense of nocturnal football at LSU. Only in very rare instances will I step foot in that stadium during the daylight hours and you can bet your sweet arse it will be dark in the third quarter.
