The whole LSU/corndog thing makes me chuckle a little. Maybe because its so random and silly and makes no sense, but is meant to be insulting. If I were an LSU fan it would not upset me at all, because it makes no sense whatsoever.
The insult didn't go over too well. Just about everyone laughed at it and now it's more of a joke kind of like calling us Gumps. Wasn't Forrest Gump a zillionaire? :)

That's funny. Not enough there for it to really stick for very long. However, it did make me just go to the freezer and toss a few in the microwave. Seriously.
I'd rather smell like a corn dog than a cow pie, which is what Awdarn smells like. Corn Dogs take me back to my youthful days at the state fair with my girlfriend. Cow Pies, well that just stinks.

For the record I've been to Baton Rouge and the Bama/LSU game many, many times and I've been quite upset that I didn't smell corn dogs...I love 'em and they're not sold there!!!

Finally, if an Awdarn person says it in the woods is he still a moron?

I always just peel off the breading and eat it in ketchup...I leave the dog on the stick. It freaks people out!!! You just don't grow out of some things! :biggrin:

This is an Agbarn thing, pure and simple. I'm surprised at you guys.

The whole corndog business is just too silly to get annoyed about. It is so childish that it makes us embarrassed for them. Barners come around campus and giggle at each other and yell "corndog, corndog". It is about the lamest taunt in the world (OK, "Hoddy Toddy" may be worse), but it is apparently the best they can come up with. Some kind of weiner fixation, I imagine.

It ain't even original. The corndog gag was written in the 1960's by Oklahoma State fans about Iowa fans. You remember Iowa, the land of corn and hogs. Corndogs are the local cuisine there. Some brilliant Barner just switched LSU for Iowa and put it on the internet even though it made no sense at all. Anybody who has ever tailgaited at LSU knows that LSU fans smell like jambalaya, gumbo, smoked andouille, fried shrimp and boiled crawfish.

Now, whoever came up with calling LSU "The Who" was clever. That was funny and based on something that LSU actually does . . . the "ELL...ESS...YOU" chant. I think it was Florida . . .

Just gotta look at the barners and wonder what makes 'em tick. I did have a LSU fan ask for directions (to da barn) last year in Tuscaloosa. I told him east till you smell it and then south till you step in it.
