"It is a pantheon of concrete and steel
It's a city that rises defiantly in the delta
Alongside the father of waters
It is the humidity of autumn evenings
That drapes stately oaks and broad magnolias
It is haunted
It is Halloween night and it is loud
Cannon blasts
It is a Louisiana gumbo of humanity
That cheers its Tigers to victory
And destroys the dreams of invading foes
Chance of rain is...NEVER!
It is the cathedral of college football
And worship happens here
When the sun finds its home in the western sky
It is a field of glory for sure
But much more than that, it is a scared place
And it is Saturday night in Death Valley."

It is the TAF tailgate held in the PMAC.
It's the Golden Band from Tigerland and The Golden Girls.
It is the gold game.
It's Mike the Tiger.
It's Calling Baton Rouge.
It's Pregame.
It's (newly added) pyrotechnics.
It's generations of Alumni.
It's your unborn son moving like a maniac every time the band plays or the crowd roars.
It's the heisman pose.
It's continuing old traditions and starting new.
It is the stadium of my Alma Mater and it is one of my favorite places in the world. I can't wait to teach our son everything about LSU and I know he will love it just as much as his Mom and Dad do.
Geaux Tigers!
