Now that was a manager who had his head up his posterior win he did that....shouldn't have taken ULL students to go crazy...he should have been on the phone saying he wasn't going to do it. Good on you though.....screw LSU.

A couple of years ago, a San Marcos-based cable company setup this billboard a couple of blocks from campus. All Hell broke loose and Grande apologized for it.
Stuff like this is uncalled for.

I know that when I was a student I would have complained mightily, but would have been in the minority.

I think Louisiana does have the advantage of having a smaller(than MT) student body and having been playing FBS ball from the start, but I tip my hat to your student body regardless. I look forward to the day that our entire student body will have only known MT as a FBS program and when more and more students will have grown up going to Middle games. I myself am not a born and bred Blue Raider, but I have a lot of friends with kids that are raising them the wearing blue and if I ever meet a woman foolish enough to want to procreate with me, you better believe they'll be blue raiders as well.

The BK on campus put the advertisment up on their marquee'..the students came unglued, dont know all the details.
BK finally called corporate and was allowed to take the sign down.
I am proud of my university, definitely proud of the students.

The rest of you mucks that read this board in Monroe, Ruston, lake Chuck, etc.. have some balls and do the same.

PS I have no problem with this on any other BK in the city...just not on campus.. #ULpride

No one noticed it in Ruston, we have the world's largest show of a Burger King so no one eats there.
