re: Greg Brooks medical emergency was on Thursday
Posted by tigerwat on 9/18/23 at 11:26 am
Vertigo can be a medical emergency. My first episode came out of the blue many years ago. Thru the years, I would instantly get an episode that would render me useless.....going from the whole world spinning, getting boiling hot and sweating to shivering cold in an minute. It would take me days t...
re: Big Ben catching the Armadillo….
Posted by tigerwat on 4/22/23 at 3:39 pm
In 2016 during the Denham Springs flood, my brother got flooded out of his house and had to be saved by boat. He knew Ben from when their daughters played softball together, and somehow got in touch with Ben. Ben helped him get his insulin meds and let him stay in one of his houses. He ended up ch...
What Did Ump Tell Skenes
Posted by tigerwat on 4/13/23 at 9:26 pm
At the end of his last inning, the ump came up to Skenes as he was walking to the dugout. He talked to him for a couple of minutes then Johnson walked out and he talked to the ump alone. Did anyone hear what the discussion was? I've never seen an ump do that after an inning....
re: Does anyone have a Javen Coleman's injury update?
Posted by tigerwat on 3/17/23 at 1:58 pm
A week or so ago he was hanging around the bullpen with a large two piece brace on his arm. Did not look very promising that he would be able to build up enough to be able to pitch this year in competition.....but I am not a doctor or trainer....

Posted by tigerwat on 3/14/23 at 8:36 pm
Koerner was the first and last outs. I was on the Coaches Committee ground crew and we were waiting to go out and rake the infield. One of my Ga Tech work friends was in the stands and I gave him a hard time the whole time....

re: Did anyone else have a "Campus Job" while at LSU? Do they still have them?
Posted by tigerwat on 11/15/22 at 9:29 am
Back in the 60s I had a student job at Records and Registration. I boxed and moved old records out of the very dusty and hot attic to put them on microfiche. Every day I would go into the mens restroom next to the R&R office. Years later, we moved back to BR after I got out of the Air Force, and ...
re: For the Old Timers. What was it like living in Tiger Stadium?
Posted by tigerwat on 11/14/22 at 5:24 pm
I lived in Johnson freshman year, Hatcher sophomore, and first floor South Stadium junior year (1969). There was only one phone and one TV in the middle of the floor, no AC. Game days were exciting...it seemed like the whole world was outside our window. It was a different world.....we did not even...
re: Souvenir sod from football field
Posted by tigerwat on 7/28/22 at 4:06 pm
My wife and I went early, and found a mob of students already walking towards us with sod. People were actually walking up to them and taking pieces from them. We managed to get to the pile, got 3 sections, and managed to get them back to the truck without losing any. The people who had lined up ...
re: Your All-time Favorite "Big" Innings
Posted by tigerwat on 6/3/22 at 10:08 pm
[b]It’s the Georgia Tech game. I want to say because I was there lol. But honestly it’s because of it being a regional final and it sent LSU to Omaha. The Tech coach lost 10 years off his life in that half inning. He come out there kicking the dirt on the mound and and screaming at the pitcher it wa...

Those Runs Are On Johnson

It was pretty obvious Hilliard ran out of steam. Something new every night....
re: Questions for former football season ticket holders.
Posted by tigerwat on 1/14/22 at 7:59 am
We gave up our tickets in 2019 after 42 years. Even though it was in the best season ever, we still did not regret it. Mainly the same reasons you cited: game day experience, lack of parking, traffic, much more enjoyable watching on our TV. We still go to a couple of out of town games a year and...
re: What’s your first LSU baseball memory?
Posted by tigerwat on 6/17/21 at 2:23 pm
We also started getting family passes for the season in the 80s. They were $25.......for a season, not a game. We joined the Coaches Committee and sat in a special section right by the dugout. Great times!...
re: What’s your first LSU baseball memory?
Posted by tigerwat on 6/16/21 at 9:25 pm
1967. I was a sophomore and would go to games at the Box. At that time, you would be lucky to have 100 people in the stands. Watched Bruce Baudier pitch a perfect game while I was studying in the stands....
re: Where were you 25 years ago this afternoon?
Posted by tigerwat on 6/8/21 at 3:24 pm
There. Sitting near Warrens parents near the top of the stadium behind third base. You can see us on the picture of Warren rounding third base and the Miami players are laying on the infield. ...

re: Hurricane Delta - LSU/Missouri Impacts
Posted by tigerwat on 10/6/20 at 8:05 am
Unlike the other storms this year, this one is slowly creeping towards BR. If it continues at this pace, we could have a hurricane pass over BR on Friday, which would make it difficult to hold the game here. I would expect that they may make the decision tomorrow to move the game. I'm not sure we ...
Ryan Clark On Campus Today
Posted by tigerwat on 9/12/20 at 10:36 pm
I'm surprised no one posted this earlier, but Ryan Clark was interviewed today on campus. He is mixed in with the athletes march today. I hate to see him set in as a cancer and take the players focus off getting ready for the season....
