Cold Cush Cush!
Cold Cush Cush!
I remember my dad singing “hot boudin cold couche couche, come on bulldogs, push, push, push”. When I tried to look it up, all I could find was LSU fans singing it for the Tigers. ��! So which came first? My dad was a graduate of USL in the 60’s, so it’s been around for a while.
We have video evidence of geaux on an early Cajun Field scoreboard. I’m pretty sure someone posted it here, and also created the Swamp on the 89 media guide with Brian Mitchell. Tell the Florida fans they’re not first.
Dude, there are lots of things I might not know, but this is an easy one: I’ve heard that cheer at UL since at least the late 70’s. I also have some good friends that went to refineryville at the same time so I spent many weekends hanging with them during that same time. Trust me, there was nothing ‘cajun’ there but a bunch of haughty kids making fun of our accents. Their lagniappe days were called ‘Jam-Jam.’
I first heard them stealing the cheer around the mid/late 80’s after being ‘Cajun’ suddenly became cool. This was also the same time they stole ‘GEAUX’….and around the same time that that fake-Cajun cook on pbs became popular, the one who a lot of people thought was so funny.
When is the soonest anyone remembers the tiggers doing that cheer?
