Football traditions?

[Kal]

ONe of my all time favorite traditions was the cannon blast after a score at the UL football games. It's sad that the cannon is no longer with us. Does anyone know what happened to it?

I enjoyed watching the youngsters run with their favorite players on the Sunday baseball games.

1- 7th Inning STretch at Tigue
2- Cajuns Ball at Cajun Dome
3- Son yelling at opposing coaches to get off floor and stay in his box.
4- Mr Vic and his peanuts, okay that is an Antlers tradition, and Cajuns

I heard a certain fire marshall won't allow us to have a cannon. I don't know the whole reason, or who it is but that's the word I got.

When I participated (at least I seem to have flashbacks to that effect after 30 years), I'd have to say Lagniappe Day. Free bugs and beer were pretty sweet.

The all elusive hunt for the mediocre football coach to replace the last mediocre football coach that we finally admit stunk!

I have been thinking a while about the lack of tradition here at Louisiana. I have seen many college in my lifetime, almost all of the successful programs have deep lines of tradition. I think now is the time we have to start a true tradition here. Something that makes people go into awe when they see it. I dont know what this could be but we need to build this program before it fades away yet again. It all starts with the fan base. Anyone have ideas about what we the true fans can do to build this program? Besides attending the game of course.

One tradition that was stolen from us was the cannon. The tradition that we have that we should always keep is the team coming to shake hands with the students after a win. I dont know if this has been around, but the first time I remember the team doing this was after we beat NMSU on thursday night a few years back.

I love that damn cannon, except the first time I heard it go off, I must have jumped 6 feet over. Fire marshal canned it for us. I do appreciate the players comming around to high five the loyal fans that show support every game. I guess I wish for more, EX: throw an incomplete pass in denver, 60-70 thousand people screaming in-com-plete! Something to rattle the opponents.
