I left some stuff off but I think you're still beating me, I have a LU wind breaker and LU Hoodie, 1 car sticker.

I need to step up my game because I don't have any LU shorts or sweats. But I do have one thing on you for the moment, a diploma and a picture of me shaking Dr. Simmons hand as I walk across the stage.

LU4LIFE is beating both of us.

I have a Lamar Football sweatshirt that came from one of the LU asst coaches (McManus) lockers after he was fired in the '70s. It is in such bad shape now, my wife said she would throw it away if I wear it.

How many folks remember that guy?

Portion of Proclamation from Alumni Affairs:

To celebrate collegiate football in Southeast Texas, Lamar University alumni and friends are asked to GET YOUR RED ON during the Lamar University Cardinals home football game weekends in 2011.

Wearing red on home game weekends is about more than just putting on the school colors. Wearing red shows support for the students whose academic goals will be met at Lamar University, the students who will shape the future of our region and of the State of Texas.

Uh, yeah, dude. We're pretty much the UT of Austin. Wait, wait...well, we're the UT of Beaumont...for those who went to Lamar (and those who went to Lamar and don't cheer for another university).

So, of course there's a store that sells LU merch in Austin.

If it isn't evident by this post, I'm shocked too.

So CA, do us Lamar Alumni a favor, and be sure to proudly wear your Lamar red tomorrow on the A&M campus. A little payback! lol.

On that subject, I was eating lunch at the Lamar Subway today & in 20 min. saw 14 students wearing some type of Lamar apparel. Not any, none, zilch for any other school (HS or college), unless you don't count LIT.

That's awesome. I noticed that the freshmen and sophomores at LU were much more spirited and bought in to the idea of supporting Lamar athletics. Sadly my class was not like this, by the time people get to their senior year if they're not fans they're not going to be. Football came to late for many.

And I've already wore my Lamar Ultimate Jersey many times on campus at TAMU. I was going to wear my Lamar shirt on College colors day (tomorrow) but I came back into town tonight. I'm back in the beautiful Golden triangle for the weekend.

The campus was almost solid red today!!! There were a few HS shirts but i would say that 90-95% of the students on camous wore red today!

That's really awesome! I'm not going to lie it almost makes me want to cry tears of joy. I remember when I would be wearing my Lamar gear a few years back and I might see two or three other people that day wearing something Lamar. It picked up significantly last year, but now it's grown even more. I really would love to see a picture.
