re: Random, Funny memory from your time at LSU

It was a coffee/sandwich shop when I was there, run by LSU. I was the evening manager as a student. I had to close it out at 6 or so. Then I managed the snack bars in the dorms until they closed at 9.

I had a van and a beeper, and there was very little to do after closing Foster and making the rounds. So I could hit the bars and wait to get beeped.

I was a supervisor for Graham Hall, and occasionally Foster Hall, snack bars when I was a senior. Good times. I did not have a beeper - perhaps they had not yet been invented.

Is this weird? In my entire time at LSU I rarely went to the Union. No idea why not.

My marketing professor in 1983 was a huge college basketball fan. Houston’s Phi Slamma Jamma with Clyde Drexler and Hakeem Olajuwon was coming to play LSU and my professor indicated to me that he would love it if I could somehow save a seat for him in the student section.
I was able to save a seat mid court in the student section about 15 rows up from the floor
I don’t remember studying for the final exam but got an A in the class.

there was a bar in the Union when I was at LSU, it opened at 8am, took a class one semester that started at 9am, day one of the class the prof told everyone that he stopped by there on his way from his office top class almost every morning, whoever met him there before class and bought him a beer would receive an A, next morning I was there, he was a man of his word

I remember in 2011, they found a homeless dude living in CEBA that had been there for weeks and no one noticed. People just assumed he was an engineering student who took studying way too seriously

Seems like some big thing happened every semester or so while I was there:

Hippie GA burning flag event. Right around when Facebook groups/events were becoming a big thing.

Pizza Girl

Final Week Boyz

Flash Mobs (lmao wtf were these)

Guy sleeping in the grass in the quad got run over by a truck

Guy jumps off the roof of the Science building in the middle of the day

Reggies 86 Girl

Reggies handjob guy

I’m sure there are more I’m forgetting

ETA: how could I forget, the man myth and legend JC making everyone say “YE YE”

I had a class where the final exam time conflicted with another class's exam.

I spoke with the professor, and he told me "yeah, some other people in the class have the same issue. Meet me in front of the library on Saturday at 10am and you can take the exam then."

I arrive Saturday morning and recognize some of my classmates waiting outside the library.

Time passes and the professor hasn't shown up.

This was the late 90s when not everyone had a cell phone. Luckily one of my classmates did, and was able to get the professor on the phone.

The professor answers and says "Oh my God. I go to leave my house and I have a flat tire. I don't know anything about cars, and I really can't deal with all this today. Pass the phone around to everyone there for the exam."

The phone is passed around, and he gives everyone there an A on the exam.

All because he didn't know how to change a flat tire.

Going to class during the summer when a huge rainstorm broke out. Girl was wearing flip flops and one came off and floated into a gutter. While she was running to catch it, she fell in the water and lost the other one. I felt bad, but it was pretty funny too.
