That Was Disgusting Saturday

[KajunKrazy]

Yeah the game was bad but thats not what I am talking about here.

Last night as I was leaving my seats and entered the McElligott club to go to the exits, I realized the Clemson game was still going on. When Clemson failed to convert on their last possession people in that club wearing cajuns gear erupted in cheer. That is right they are in the club at UL cheering for the only school in America that went to the State Legislature and had them pass a law for the sole purpose of holding our school back from retaining the name that they had rightfully and lawfully obtained.

I’ll never understand stand how anyone that is a UL alum and supports their school, could ever pull for an institution that has intentionally done things to harm and hold back your school. Makes 0 sense.

As the tittle says that is f’ing disgusting.

But if we had stolen name of stadium from say a team with same mascot, then that would be ok i suppose.

I don’t know. Ask Clemson how they feel about having their stadium name stolen. They could probably shed a little light on that.

Pardon me but ol' Artificial Intelligence has a different view:

ai:begin

The University of Southwestern Louisiana (now the University of Louisiana) began calling its football stadium "The Swamp" in **1988**.

According to official records, the nickname originated in the summer of 1988 when the then–Strength & Conditioning Coach, **Mickey Faulkinberry**, suggested referring to Cajun Field as "The Swamp." The name quickly caught on among fans, appeared on stadium signage, and was featured in the school yearbook that same year, and then in the 1989 official Southwestern Louisiana sports media guide ([ragincajuns.com][1]).

So, to recap clearly: **1988** is the year Cajun Field officially began being referred to as **“The Swamp.”**

I don't know, maybe my memory fails... but I graduated in 1988 and I thought we were calling Cajun field "The SWAMP" before that.
