GO tell this to all the local merchants who make two and three times as much money from selling LSU gear as compared to UL gear. This strategy of trying to make this a Laf-BR thing is silly. I guess if you can't win them (fans), you have to resort to intimidation & deception.
I was born and live in Lafayette, Louisiana...so I'm not sure.
Hey...look this up in the dictionary it will have your picture and the LA@Lafayette logo right next to it...
Penile Envy Noun. envy of power, status, or privilege, as symbolized by the _____ of the male
I don't have a problem with a business from this area selling LSU gear... or a person from here buying it. Both are free to do as they wish.
I DO have a problem, though, when some try to see I am suppose to "support my state university" financially or otherwise. Again, I have nothing to do with LSU. It is not my school.
I guess that you did not get the line of our president as he refuted the regional school bit and correctly referred to Tech and UL as State schools---so the ULMs and the rest are in fact regional schools-----Just be happy for the time being that because of your identification you don't have to live up to the same APR standards as State schools!!!
"Intimidation and deception"? You mean I just scared or tricked someone back into the UL (Lafayette) camp? I'm damn good... but I'm not that good.
I'm pretty certain the sales of LSU and UL gear combined in Lafayette is not what keeps Lafayette commerce alive. Since you live in Lafayette it might be a good thing for you to study up on the economic significance UL has on that city. You can purchase everything LSU (Baton Rouge) sells in Lafayette all day long... and you can't make a dent in the magnitude UL has on the economic viability of Lafayette.
So yes... quite tremendously... UL belongs to Lafayette... and LSU belongs to Baton Rouge. We (Baton Rouge) are the ones getting rich off of the LSU proceeds. Please... please... keep it coming. Again, this city cannot survive without your donations. Please... please... keep them coming! Spread it around the ranch! We're thinking of building another habitat for Mike... send your money soon... we are about to have to give Les $18 mil just to keep him from ruining our great football program! Quick... send your money today!
