I get a lot of "Geaux Tigers" down here and when I lived in the northwest. A bunch of other SEC fans have started up great conversations, usually with a little ribbing. I've had drinks bought for me and done the same for others. It does seem that we're well-liked, more so than other schools. I've seen people treat Florida, FSU, Miami and Bama fans really badly down here. I think we fare better because we like to to eat and party and we can generally take a joke. I haven't met too many jerky LSU fans who make it out of the state, thank goodness.

Here in Texas, we often get negative comments since the CWS, especially when they see the Texas license plates with the Tiger on them and they hear GEAUX TIGAHS!!!

People get really bent out of shape
Maybe it's you.

Have never had this with LSU or the Saints. Thought I might get something with my LSU FB helmet hitch cover in Gulf Shores, but not a peep.

I have been living in Florida since 1985. My Florida license plate says LSU GO on it. I wear some sort of LSU gear at least once a week. Never, has anyone had anything negative to say. I have even driven my car to at least 4 (that I can remember) games in the swamp. Everyone in Gainesville has always been courteous

I wear mine up and down the West Coast and don't really get shite. I tiger baited this lil' 3 year old with UGA gear on last year. I did it in a very friendly non confrontational manner and the dad thought it was funny!

It is a great conversation starter. Heck I even got a "GEAUX TIGERS" twice when my unit was in Germany back in July-August.

I wear my National Championship hat to UK games. Last year the Arkansas fans sneered a little but then I can understand that. UK fans don't get too upset they tease me though.

I'm in Chicago this week and will be wearing my LSU hat at the Cubs game on Thursday

To the contrary - I wear my LSU cap almost everywhere and it's a good conversation starter. I get alot of comments from other SEC folks (got a "War Eagle" from a new neighbor a couple of days ago - started a great conversation with him).

here in Virginia Beach.. if it's not NFL.. people couldn't care less.. I see more lsu gear than Virginia or Virginia Tech gear.. Lots of Ohio State too..
But never once had a comment on my "LS YOU" license plate..

I have to wear my purple and gold, too much of that wacky orange up here in tennessee!! It usually starts up a convo, or occasionally get a geaux tigers in return!
oh yeah, I ran into someone at the red door saloon in midtown nashville the other night with a LSU hat on.

theres a lot of bammers and AUbarners up in Nashville too.
Its really random when I see LSU fans. Ran into hundreds of them over the summer in Nashville. Some days driving around I wont see any other LSU cars and then some days I'll see more cars decked out in LSU stuff than UT or Bama. 1 day I passed 6 LSU cars in 10 minutes going to the mall. There were also lots of LSU car flags and house flags up here too back in January 08.

In general I get complements and pretty good comments most the time. One the way back from New York to Atlanta last week, the stewardess gave me free drinks because I had an LSU t-shirt on.

Not a problem here in Colorado: CU, CSU, and AFA--there's no college football played in this state.....

I did get some crap when I sat in the left field bleachers for a Cubs game with an LSU hat on. But those idiots will find just about anything rag on somebody. Fans in Chicago are the worst.

It's always been a good thing for me, too.

mhmm wear anything LSU purple and gold and you get funny looks

Anybody else get this?
My question is how much of the stuff do people own. I saw people in Wednesday all over Seattle all decked out - presumably they had p and g clothes for every day they were here?
