Tailgates, talking to people, doing interviews, mixing it up.
0:23
It's a lot of fun, man. Football season's well underway
0:27
and as you're going to see in this show, the tailgate is
0:31
already in mid season form. There's no doubt this was one.
0:37
This past weekend was definitely It was one of those magical days
0:42
where everything just worked. There were no camera issues,
0:47
there were no mic problems, just wall to wall content non-stop.
0:53
It's the first time in doing all of this that it's worked out
0:56
that smoothly, man. So I was pumped, pumped about it
1:01
and and you guys are going to see some stuff tonight that you

1:46
loaded. We've got a couple who came down
1:50
from Buffalo just one week before their wedding.
1:54
That's right, they came down for that.
1:56
That's amazing. We had fans from California,
2:00
Washington, Canada, the even the LSU Divas showed up and they
2:06
showed out Jacob DJ in keeping the vibes freaking high.
2:11
And then the food, of course, was legendary stuff.
2:17
So we're going to go over all of it and, and, and have a little
2:22
bit of fun. But before we do, let me check
2:24
in. Let me check in with the chat,
2:27
See what I'll see who all we have in here tonight.
2:31

3:38
chipping in all, all of that good stuff.
3:41
Your boys a little tired tonight.
3:44
This could go off the rails. I don't think it will.
3:46
I think I'm going to keep it between the ditches we're going
3:49
to see. But.
3:51
But yeah, I've got several little videos to show you guys
3:54
tonight and let's not waste any more time.
3:57
Let's jump in it and let's kick it off with the full menu.
4:01
I think the best way to do it and kind of these videos are
4:04
going to come to you in the order of which they happen in a
4:07
sense. I didn't mean for that to
4:08
happen, but as I'm putting it together, I'm like, it just kind
4:11
of makes sense of this is the kind of the order of which
4:14
everything was recorded kind of. But you got to start off with
4:19
the menu and see what all's going on.
4:22
So here we go. Check this out.
4:24
We did it. On today, you asked.
4:27
Yes. We might have a few different
4:29
things today. A couple.
4:30
So today we got a over here on the open fire pit.
4:34
We have a Gator hanging. I believe he's surrounded by
4:37
four of us tomahawk friends. There's some pineapples hanging
4:41
both ways, so I don't know what that all means.
4:43
Yeah, lots of vegetables. I think there's even a purple
4:46
cabbage hanging over there. It's kind of weird.
4:49
Hey, but one thing missing that a brother like it's it's chicken
4:51
and there's no chicken on the menu, man.
4:53
No chicken. What's in the Alfredo?
4:56
Chicken. Alfredo.
4:58
I gotta be chicken wings man. Did you bring a Ziploc?
5:01
I bought a Ziploc. I bought 2 Ziploc bags.
5:04
Man, I hope it's those little sandwich sauce ones.
5:08
Man, this minute's already turned into 5.
5:13
So look, we're going to turn to this side of the of the kitchen
5:17
over here. And on this side of the kitchen,
5:18
we got a alligator sauce pecan being cooked up right here by
5:22
the world for. Famous Tubulo.
5:24
Let's take us on a tour, Darren. So let's take.
5:26
A tour. So over here, we're going to
5:28
come over here and if we get past the world famous Tupelo,
5:32
we'll get to a alligator sauce pecan that he's cooking.
5:36
Still in the mix. He's still working on it, mixing
5:38
shit up. It's looking really good.
5:41
Then we can wander a little further.
5:44
Pillar Grill. Yeah, let's check.
5:46
Oh no, there is. We've got pasta on the pellet
5:49
grill. We've got Buddha and sausage all
5:51
on the pellet grill. Sausage provided by Cajun Family
5:54
traditions and Buddha, Cajun Scent Family traditions.
5:58
Then we got the smoker over here, so let's open.
6:00
This fucker up. But this thing is 305 inside so
6:05
watch your eyes because you're going to miss stuff.
6:08
This is all baby back ribs getting ready.
6:13
They'll be ready in another 3 hours.
6:16
And over here T, we got another stuff going.
6:18
On over here. Let's move along over here by
6:21
Mr. Rosa. Mr. Rosa got him a chicken
6:28
sausage tasso pasta sauce pecan liar.
6:33
That's what we called it, a sauce pecan liar.
6:36
Let's start that over again. What it What do we got?
6:39
It's a sauce. Pecan with pasta Sauce.
6:42
Pecan with pasta. Bow tie pasta.
6:44
Sauce Pecan Liar. OK, this is new.
6:48
And then we look at it though, look at red rolling.
6:52
Yeah, and. Then when we come around the
6:54
corner a little bit further, we got Mr. Wade.
6:58
Oh, he's going to do these cracklins, Yeah.
7:02
Crack. Well, hopefully it'll come out
7:05
good. Maybe I'll get lucky and it
7:06
tastes good. You know, this is his pit, this
7:09
is everything. Beautiful cigar.
7:11
Tell us everything we need to know.
7:14
That's a loaded question. That's you Caught me off guard
7:17
with that one. Everything you need to know,
7:19
man. Nothing's better than a Saturday
7:21
in Baton Rouge and when you're playing the Gators, you got to
7:24
burn a Gator. You got to make it happen.
7:26
Open fire cooking. Just my favorite thing to do in
7:28
the world. A little bit different.
7:29
You get the show, you get to see it, you get to have fun.
7:32
To me, cooking is all about family and having a good time
7:35
with friends. So for me, like what better
7:37
place than LSU tailgate? This is the place.
7:41
That's this is the place. So we've got an alligator, we
7:44
have tomahawk, tomahawk, snakes, rib eyes.
7:46
We're going to be searing those up, having a good time.
7:48
It's all about that open fire flame catching it.
7:51
This guy's going nice, low and slow.
7:52
Going to take about 8 hours to cook this full Gator.
7:54
OK, those Tomahawks take about two hours each or so hanging up.
7:57
Nice part about open fire is you constantly have to mess around
8:00
with it, adding more coals, raising up the meat, lowering
8:02
it, moving stuff around. So it's a dance.
8:05
And I love, I love dancing with fire.
8:07
I love dancing with fire. Dancing with fire baby.
8:09
I'm changing my name. My Instagram is fat kid snacks.
8:12
I might go dance on a fire because that sounds sexy.
8:15
As hell, I don't know. It really does.
8:17
I think that's what it should be, right?
8:18
Let's get hot, baby. Boom.
8:21
We got some grilled chicken. We've got some Alfredo sauce.
8:24
With the panet pasta so. We're going to do a little
8:26
Alfredo with some grilled chicken, kind of little Italian
8:29
cuisine. Let's see what she thinks about
8:31
it. It's all right that it that'll.
8:36
Work. I love it.
8:37
And this conclude. The Mingo Minute.
8:39
I ain't got my paper. Plate, but I had my minute.
8:41
Gotta love it, man. You gotta love it.
8:43
Mingo, the Mingo minute this has been that's been coming on for a
8:48
little bit. We've been trying to get the
8:50
Mingo minute and it's just been the way that things have been
8:52
edited, stuff like that. It just has not made it yet.
8:57
But I think we're going to need to check in and get Mingo
9:01
minutes a little bit more regularly.
9:03
I think y'all can agree with that.
9:06
Mingo is hilarious that the characters that are at the
9:10
tailgate. I think that's something that
9:12
I'm really wanting to shine through as this season goes on,
9:17
as we go further along. I didn't do it as much last
9:21
year. Like the inner workings of the
9:22
people who put the tailgate on. It was just the craziness of the
9:27
random people that come by or that we see, which that of
9:30
course is still going to continue.
9:32
But I want you to see the inner workings of the team, the people
9:36
who actually put it all together.
9:40
Miss Cassandra says she loves it.
9:42
There's a diva. There's a diva.
9:44
You're coming up soon. Everybody's going to love it.
9:47
I know that you're waiting to see it too, Brian says.
9:50
Man, that looks like some good freaking eating dude.
9:53
It was a funny thing. I know it was because it's all
9:57
gone. It doesn't matter the amount of
10:00
food that you put out at these tailgates like it is gone.
10:05
Let's say we put 3 briskets out because I usually cook three to
10:09
five briskets every year. Man, last year those briskets,
10:12
they they didn't last 20 minutes.
10:14
This year if it hits that table, it is gone.
10:18
So sometimes I'm not real good about getting the food content
10:22
because by the time it hits the serving trays and it starts to
10:25
get served, by the time I get over there gone, it's gone.
10:30
So it gets absolutely destroyed. And for whatever reason, this
10:35
weekend I actually didn't eat a single thing.
10:39
I didn't get a chance to have any of the Tomahawks.
10:41
I'm not a huge fan of alligator barbecued at all.
10:45
Like sauce pecan, yes, I would do that.
10:48
Alligator, fried alligator. I love it, but I'm not a huge
10:51
fan of it BBQ, just it's tastes still tastes a little fishy to
10:55
me. But I can tell you that
10:57
alligator was absolutely destroyed.
11:00
Not pictured. A beautiful pork Stew from the
11:03
same gentleman, Mr. Chance, who made The Who, who made that
11:07
fettuccine Alfredo. And we also had a whole hog.
11:11
I just didn't get didn't get it captured, didn't get it
11:15
captured. But Paul says no alligator, but
11:19
he would devour. He would devour.
11:22
There's chance. He's in the chat, brother.
11:25
What is up, man? Chance.
11:27
Make some amazing stuff, little birdie.
11:30
And you'll hear that again here in just a second.
11:32
A little birdie told me you may be here this weekend and that
11:36
fires me up. A sold out LSU this weekend for
11:39
southeastern Louisiana. That's going to be fun.
11:42
That's going to be fun, a Louisiana party.
11:46
Look real quick before we move, move any further into it.

12:20
So up next, now that we have seen the food and that and, and
12:27
you've, you've had a little crash course on what's going
12:30
down, Let's meet a couple of first timers who flew all the
12:34
way down from Buffalo, NY a week before their wedding.
12:39
Yes, a week before their wedding, they picked LSU over
12:43
wedding prep and you're going to see why from the tailgate.
12:48
You can find it that that's what this is, that's what this is.
12:54
So every week we like to interview people, talk to
12:56
people. How'd you get here?
12:58
Why are you here? What do you think about the
13:00
tigers? All that.
13:01
And then this comes to me and I hear 2 little birdies tell me
13:06
that number one, you're getting married #2 you're from Buffalo,
13:10
NY. What makes?
13:12
You here. Last night we were studying
13:15

13:17
game for our wedding. And then we bought tickets and
13:19
here we are. We get married in a week.
13:22
One week ago. One week ago I've been.
13:24
LSU fan for 20. Years and I've never been to a
13:27
game. And so we said screw it, let's
13:28
buy tickets. And go down.
13:30
Right here. I freaking love that.
13:31
Number one, this is obviously a union.
13:36
A union that is going to work. Ain't no doubt about it.
13:39
You for the Tigers. How'd y'all become Tiger fans
13:43
living in Buffalo, NY? I love him, so that's up to Yeah
13:46

13:47
Inherited it from me, but. Back in 2006 I created.

13:54
So I said for 2007 season I'm going to root for the Tigers.
13:58
OK, they went on to win the national championship that year.
14:01
I didn't. I'm like it's meant to.
14:02
Be it's meant to. Be I didn't know if it might be
14:04

15:05

15:07
I love the weather, I love the food, but I can't move here
15:09
because I'll get fat if I do. That's a fat we're done.
15:16
She was so freaking awesome man. She says her name.
15:20
I have another video. We're not done seeing her.
15:22
She stole the show. I'm not going to lie, she has
15:25
amazing Mike skills. You'll see.
15:29
I'm not go. I'm not even going to.
15:31

I think her name's Anna. I think her name's Anna.
15:39
She I haven't seen her yet online.
15:41
She that I haven't been able to tag her in any of the stuff.
15:44
The videos have got a lot of views.
15:48
So that that is just that is crazy, man, that is crazy.
15:52
But she was she's awesome. How cool is that?
15:55
It just goes to show like you're going to hear, like I said, from
16:00
some people from Canada, California, Washington, like
16:04
it's every single weekend that we do one of these things that,
16:08
that we end up seeing some of these folks.
16:11
And I've, I've talked to to Marie with visit Baton Rouge.
16:15
She came by the tailgate a couple weekends ago and they're
16:19
going to have some other folks coming in, maybe some more
16:22
British people coming to the tailgate, which would be fun.
16:26
Yeah, it's just, it's, it's just, it's, it's just an
16:29
incredible place. It's just a nice melting pot of
16:32
everybody, man. It really, really is.
16:35
Jacob says let's go, Tim, what's up?
16:39
Tim says let's freaking go. I love it.
16:43
I love it. Hey now, hey now, what is going
16:47
on? My buddies over at Over the
16:49
Line. I love it, dude.
16:52
I love it. Good to see y'all.
16:54
Good to see everybody in here. Y'all keep it coming.
16:57
You keep it coming, all right. Tim says he has a Brit coming on
17:00
Saturday. Well, one interview's already
17:03
down. I love that.
17:04
That makes things easy. I love it.
17:07
Keep them coming, everybody. Keep them coming as it helps.
17:10
It helps your boy Tiggy, no doubt about it.
17:14
Well, of course, that couple got a crash course in Tiger culture.
17:19
But there's one man and he is in the chat with us tonight.
17:23
There's one man who keeps this whole show moving and that's our
17:27
buddy, Mr. Jacob. Jacob, we got to get a name for
17:30
you, DJ Jacob, but I think we can do better.
17:33
Maybe you have a handle. We need to get something, DJ
17:36
Jacob. I don't know.
17:37
Anyhow, Jacob is our DJ and our chaos coordinator as well.
17:43
So if you're ever, if you've ever seen the Cajun Tiger set
17:46
up, you've seen him in action. He's dressed to the nines.
17:50
He's the heartbeat of it all. Here he is.
17:55
Ever party here at the Cajun Tiger tailgate, you see that
17:58
starts to bounce like this as the day goes on.
18:01
That's because of this man right here.
18:04
I do have a couple of questions for you, Sir.
18:07
And I might have a couple of answers for.
18:08
You Sir, freaking bet you do, all right.
18:13
What's your favorite moment in Tiger Stadium history?
18:18
Favorite moment? Tiger.
18:19
State of history. When Jacob Hester punched it in
18:24
the end zone and put us up 2421 against Florida back during the
18:30
Tim Tebow era, that was the loudest I have ever heard.
18:35
Stadium right there. My place is rocking that night,
18:38
Sir. I couldn't hear myself.
18:40
For three days now, dude. Close.
18:42
Second was the Alabama game in double overtime or.
18:45
What was it overtime? What they go?
18:46
I was drunk, I can't remember. Cover 4th down.
18:48
Yeah, Four times. Yeah.
18:49
Something like that, anyway. Yeah, that was the second
18:52
loudest. But that Florida game against
18:54
Tim Tebow, watching him cry on the sidelines, that was the best
18:58
moment I've ever witnessed in that stadium.
19:01
Yeah. Yeah.
19:02
Tears. Bye.
19:02
Bye. Crocodile tears.
19:04
Yeah. We got a cell phone that night.
19:06
I. Did.
19:06
Yeah, we did. Yeah, we got that bitch
19:08
disconnected too. Jacob, what is the wildest thing
19:11
you've ever seen at a tailgate? At a tailgate.
19:14
At a tailgate. I'd like an answer from both.
19:18
Oh well, I've been doing this tailgate for about 5 years now,
19:22
so I've slept a lot since six years.
19:24
Ago. And there wasn't really anything
19:27
loud at those other tailgates because this one is the cream of
19:30
the crop. Cajun Tiger tailgating is is the
19:32
absolute cream of the crop. This is.
19:34
That's a fact. What?
19:35
What have I seen that's wild here?
19:37
Somebody got married on top of the damn truck and.
19:40
It's true. That is true.
19:41
Somebody didn't. Get married.
19:44
They were from like Nevada or something too, weren't they?
19:46
Yeah. And one time I had projectile
19:49
vomit and there were colors coming out that I didn't even
19:51
know I ingested, so that was kind of cool.
19:53
Were the colors actually there? Did you see the?
19:55
Colors. I thought I did.
19:57
It looked like your hair. Yeah, maybe I got it in my hair,
20:00
I don't know, but that was like 4 weeks ago.
20:04
That is that's a great point. Every year this man has the most
20:08
amazing outfits and uniforms. I would call him a uniform, but
20:12
look at this sexy son of a gun right now.
20:16
Yeah. Oh, you got boing.
20:18
Yeah, that's AT Moo Go baby. Yeah, these.
20:21
Pants like they don't make them for people like me and Austin
20:23
Dennis, that's a fact. What's the best thing about this
20:26
tailgate? Let me let me tell you what the
20:28
best thing about this tailgate is.
20:29
Come here. See that right there?
20:31
Do you see that nobody else does this kind of shit?
20:35
And that's a fact. That is a fact, no doubt, man.
20:43
Jacob says that he has nothing special, that he wishes he could
20:46
think of something. Well, we're going to figure this
20:48
out. We're going to figure out a
20:50
name. You, you have to have a name.
20:52
You got to have a handle. It'll just be more fun.
20:55
Tim says we don't need to make his head any bigger, or we don't
20:58
need to make his hair any taller either.
21:01
You know, maybe we do. It can get all the way up to
21:03
heaven. That's what it can do.
21:05
That's what it can do. Hey, Keith, what is going on,
21:08
brother? Good to see you.
21:10
Good to see you. He says that he has some Co
21:12
workers from Oregon coming in. Heck yeah, man.
21:16
Well, this weekend's already setting up very nicely.
21:20
I'm pumped. It's going to be another hot
21:22
one. But hey, it looks like we
21:23
already have got some stuff in the works.
21:27
Jacob said he's glad that I caught him sober, though he
21:30
feels it's funnier when he's wasted.
21:33
Well, agreed on both, both ends, but the wasted videos that that
21:39
we did last year, I had mic issues a time or two, but never
21:44
just I don't know. They may see the light of day.
21:48
Jacob, the hell with it. They may come out.
21:50
I'm going to be reviewing a few things.
21:53
I'm going to go back through the collection of last year and, and
21:57
there's some Dandy's I just don't remember.
22:00
We'll see, We'll see. Paul says Matt Mitchell said
22:04
that's his least favorite rivalry and I can see why.
22:08
Lol. Yeah, yeah.
22:10
It's not a bit, it's not a a fun day for the Gators on campus.
22:13
Now look, I'm sure anywhere they go, they get grief.
22:17
They always have. They're the Gators.
22:18
That's just the way it is. But I doubt anybody brings it as
22:23
hard as they do in Louisiana, especially with cooking
22:26
alligators. You know, just, I don't think
22:30
they're cooking alligators in the Grove, you know what I mean?
22:33
So you know what I mean. So look from the man from
22:38
heaven, Jacob, the man who brings the music to some guests
22:43
who brought us a little bit. Who are they brought the culture
22:46
shock a little bit. Let's head over to the group of
22:49
gentlemen from California and Washington.
22:54
I don't know if these guys were ready for what LSU had in store.
22:57
If you guys see this report back, follow the channel.
23:01
Let us know your thoughts of of how everything went.
23:05
But just showing you everybody's just it's from everywhere.
23:08
Tiger Stadium, a man from the great state of California, a
23:15
California baby. What brings you to Death Valley?
23:20
So every year for my dad's birthday, we're Niners fans.
23:24
So I line up a Niners game. Last year we did the Packers,
23:28
got to see Lambeau and I was like, you know what, It'd be a
23:31
lot better if we got to go see a big time football game.
23:34
So Niners play the Saints tomorrow.
23:36
And I think what we're actually more excited about is being here
23:39
for the LSU Florida game. Saw that on the map and I was
23:41
like, that is the game to come to.
23:42
But do you? Go and see the 49ers a good bit.
23:46
Is this something that you do a lot or where all have you been?
23:49
This will be our third year. We kept it local in California
23:53
the first year, did a Rams game, then got out in the out in the
23:58
world. So the Packers that actually
23:59
this will be year 3, but we're going to be doing this for for
24:01
years to come. It's going to be a tradition.
24:04
What other college venues have you been to?
24:09
Sadly, like the biggest I've been to is I, I went to Cal.
24:12
So I saw Cal USC at USC. That was great.
24:14
You know, Cal Stanford's great. Nothing.
24:17
Nothing like this. Went to Boise, saw some, saw a
24:20
few games there, had some buddies there but nothing to
24:23
this level. It's not this is like this is
24:25
out of the world. I'm getting even thinking about
24:28
it. You can see the smile on my
24:29
face. Oh my God.
24:30
He has no idea, does he? You have no idea.
24:34
Zero. What?
24:34
You were in store bar. What time is it right now?
24:37
It is. Oh boy, it's just 3:00.
24:42
Hold on, it's all I can. Tell you.
24:45
Yeah, you are, But it doesn't even matter if you have that.
24:48
Just hold on. It's the energy.
24:50
It's the passion. It's freaking everything that
24:53
comes from that place, the cathedral of college football.
24:59
I'm so glad that you came to worship here with us today.
25:02
This is going to be a lot of fun.
25:04
I think you're going to really leave here with some takeaways
25:07
and I'm afraid but the Superdome may be a little bit of a let
25:12
down for you tomorrow. But and I who that baby?
25:16
Who that? Later, I couldn't even fucking
25:18
sleep last night. Like, I was so excited.
25:21
Ready to be here? Literally for this moment, I
25:23
mean, this is this is in my opinion, you know, NFL games are
25:25
great, but like this is the pinnacle of football.
25:28
You never get to experience anything like this outside of
25:31
college sports and then let alone at, you know, a campus
25:35
like LSU. It's unbelievable.
25:37
I'm glad you're here. I know you're going to have a
25:40
good time. Thank you for coming.
25:42
I hope your 49ers lose, yes, but I hope you win tonight, and I
25:47
know you're going to. Hey.
25:48
All that matters is all that matters is Gators taken out,
25:51
then I'll be happy. That's it.
25:53
That's the most important thing on the.
25:54
All right, all right. There it is.
25:56
There it is. Sir.
25:57
Come in here. Tell us a little bit what what
25:59
are your initial thoughts? Tailgate at LSU being an
26:04
outsider? Never been here before.
26:07
Like I said, I think the energy that the passion for really
26:11
living the religion of football for LSU, you can see it.
26:14
I've I've been a coach for a long time coaching rugby and you
26:18
can definitely see everybody's all in This is a cultural thing
26:22
from the little kids all the way up.
26:24
You see all the Pams coming here.
26:25
I met a guy who who's saying, yeah, I plan my wedding around
26:29
all the games. Now if we did that in Cali, it
26:31
would be one of my other future ex wives that I have already.
26:35
And as I walk around the state and look at all the beautiful
26:38
women, my future ex-wife is somewhere in this crowd as well.
26:41
So I might just, I might just come out just for the scenery
26:46
and forget about the football because it's it's red equal for
26:49
me as well. And that, and that's coming from
26:51
California. Just saying.
26:52
Bam, there it is, folks. I love that guy.
26:55
Man, both of them were so cool. It was, it was nice to meet
27:00
them. They were, I think they were
27:03
both, they're kind of their jaws were dropping a little bit,
27:07
especially, especially him. The talent has been exceptional
27:12
on campus this year. It always is.
27:15
But it has been exceptional through a couple of ball games.
27:20
I expect nothing, nothing less this weekend that I think, Tim,
27:25
I think you got it, brother. I think you got it.
27:27
That's the handle. DJDJDJ Tryon.
27:33
DJ Jacob, AKA the Heartbeat. I like it.
27:38
I like it. I think we should I think we
27:40
should do it. Paul says that guy's awesome.
27:43
He dude, they they both are freaking great.
27:46
They're great. Jacobs, he's going to roll with
27:49
it. He's going to roll with it.
27:50
So I think, see, I think we got it done.
27:53
I think we got it done. That's probably more accurate,
27:57
though. Jacob is probably more accurate.
28:01
But look, Speaking of culture from the Californians that came
28:07
to visit and, you know, bringing us a little bit of their
28:12
culture, if you will, I don't know what they brought.
28:15
They brought, they brought some Miller Lite, So it looks like
28:17
they did bring that. But Speaking of culture, there's
28:20
only one group that embodies the LSU spirit on a whole other
28:26
level beyond the Cajun Tiger tailgate.
28:30
These ladies get it. Of course I'm talking about the
28:34
LSU Divas. And when they show up, it's
28:37
purple, it's gold, it's full of glam.
28:42
Here's how they built a whole dag gum movement around this out
28:46
of game day fashion. Check this out.
28:48
I'm wearing, I'm wearing. Holy cow, ladies, I see y'all
28:56
everywhere on social media. I can't believe that you're here
28:59
in our presence at the Cajun Tiger Tailgate.
29:03
Tell us a little bit more about yourselves.
29:05
I just want to know more about y'all.
29:07
Well, this was really Cassandras inception, AKA Fiona.
29:12
Everybody knows Miss Fiona. We started.
29:14
Yeah, we started about 3 years ago.
29:16
I wasn't Amy. We always dressed for games.
29:19
I mean always elaborate. Last year I had a big stadium.
29:21
I had. So we thought, why not start a
29:24
group? So we started the Death Valley
29:26
Deep, taking it up to another level.
29:27
Yeah. And last year, how are you?
29:29
Last year we got the ultimate LSU fan for 2024.
29:33
We're trying to really start our brand, get it out there, so we
29:36
appreciate you interviewing us. Absolutely, absolutely.
29:40
I it's an honor to be in the presence of greatness and I like
29:44
that that. Every LSU fan is great.
29:47
I'm going to. Say that absolutely, but this is
29:49
another level, ladies, let's be honest.
29:52
It's a great day to be a Tiger fan.
29:55
We're Superman 's. Favorite LSU player of all time?
30:03
Jamar Chase. OK, that's a good one.
30:06
I am a true Tyrant fan. Matthew.
30:09
Matthew, I'm a true I have. To do that.
30:12
I love him through LSU. I love him through.
30:14
I cried. When he retired, I cried.
30:17
Eddie Kinison. Too, I have to say Eddie's, you
30:21
know, he's old school. But we all love Joe Burrell.
30:23
Everybody loves everybody. Of course, that's that's the
30:25
default answer. Yeah, and it is the default
30:28
answer. I'm Kevin Fault.
30:30
All eyes on three. I know, I know.
30:33
I'm a fault fan. I'm a fault.
30:35
Fan. I love that.
30:37
I love that so. Who else have you interviewed
30:40
today? We're just curious.
30:41
Man, I'll tell you, I've interviewed folks from
30:43
California, Washington State. Wow.
30:48
And I would love to bring, I'm sorry, everybody, but bring in
30:51
the Gators. Bring them in.
30:56
Bring them in. She's from.
30:58
Florida. But let me tell you, she gone
31:02
when they're not playing LSU. What does she wear?
31:06
That purple and gold baby. I do.
31:08
I do listen. This the friendship that's
31:10
tight. OK.
31:11
When you're supporting, you support.
31:13
Know know your environment OK, but there.
31:15
Is not a tailgating that goes on that.
31:17
Compares to LSU tailgating. Best tailgating ever.
31:22
No matter what. Stadium you go to.
31:24
You look amazing, where at and where do you live?
31:27
Pensacola, FL. OK, you're from I'm a Florida.
31:29
Fan from Florida. All about Florida.
31:33
That is fair. Nothing wrong with that.
31:35
That's. Nothing wrong with.
31:36
That ladies thank y'all. I'm so glad you joined me on
31:40
Tigs Bits today. Holy cow, look at these.
31:43
Beautiful. How awesome is that?
31:51
I love it. I love, love, love it and I
31:55
think I'm going to be seeing more of them.
31:57
So nice to meet both of you, both of you, Cassandra,
32:00
Cassandra and and Amy, if you're still in the chat and you see
32:04
this, let everybody know where they can follow you, how they
32:06
can follow you and all of that good stuff.
32:08
But they're super, super freaking cool, man.
32:11
They are super freaking cool. Brian says don't forget Billy
32:16
Cannon and Odell Beckham Junior. No doubt man, no doubt.
32:21
Greats. Great fun, fun little story
32:25
since you, since you mentioned Billy Cannon back in the day I
32:29
used to have a funnel. Y'all know what that is?
32:33
And the old funnel, we named that funnel Billy Cannon and it
32:39
ran and it ran hard. It ran hard.
32:43
But Paul says awesome. The lady from Pensacola was
32:46
great. She was man, she's super nice.
32:49
I love it. I mean, number one, a lot of
32:52
respect for Jacob, for anybody, for Amy Cassandra, anybody that
32:58
is wearing that much garb on a game day because it is not
33:04
chilly in Baton Rouge. It was not.
33:08
It hasn't been yet and it will not be this weekend either.
33:11
And that has to be hot. I really am.
33:13
I said it a couple of times in things.
33:16
I was sweating like Austin Dennis.
33:17
I talked to Austin today. He saw that in one of the
33:20
videos. He's like, what are you talking
33:22
about? It was like, dude, I was just
33:23
soaking wet, just sweating like he does in his videos.
33:28
If you ever watch any of of his cooking videos, he does them
33:30
outside in the middle of the summer.
33:32
His shirt starts dry and by the end of it, it's soaking wet.
33:36
I get it. I'm a sweater.
33:37
It was like, look, it just takes one to know one, which is true,
33:43
which is true. But while we're on this topic of
33:46
glam, this is a little sneaky surprise.
33:48
I told you that the Buffalo Gal was going to make another
33:54
appearance. And since we're talking about
33:56
glam, I feel it's only right to get a few beauty tips for you
34:01
ladies out there that are watching this show and I have
34:04
more than you would think. Guys, we do there's it's about
34:08
5050, which is pretty, pretty incredible.
34:12
Well, I felt this was only right.
34:13
We're going to get a little beauty beauty tips.
34:16
Here's some makeup tips from Aaron and I believe her name is
34:19
Hannah. I'm terrible.
34:21
This is Anna Beach reporting live from Baton Rouge, LA.
34:24
From Buffalo, NY, this is my friend Aaron.
34:26
Aaron, what did you do with your makeup today?
34:28
So today I decided to do some tiger stripes on my eyes
34:33
because, you know, go tigers, go tigers, go tigers.
34:37
So how do you get it to stay in this Louisiana heat?
34:41
The first thing you got to do is put on a good setting powder.
34:45
OK, What's the prime powder that you use?
34:48
I use a pattern called Jeffrey Star.
34:52
Jeffrey Star. Heard of him?
34:53
Great guy. Heard he's great.
34:54
OK, and then how about these stripes?
34:56
How did you get those to stay so clean in this heat?
34:59
Like I said, I used the Knicks eyeliner, the felt tip pin.
35:05
You just draw some little lines on your eyes.
35:07
And then what I did was took my eyeshadow that I used and
35:10
actually set the lines with the eyeshadow.
35:13
And then after that, what you got to do is you got to spray
35:17
down your face with a good setting spray.
35:20
And what is the spray? The spray that I use is called
35:23
morphine. Morphine.
35:24
Where can we buy that? You can get it at any Ulta
35:27
store. It's like $20.00 for a massive
35:30
bottle and it has never, ever failed me.
35:33
All right, you guys heard it here live from Baton Rouge.
35:36
How to have game day makeup that's looking fire.
35:38
Let's go, Tigers, go. Tigers, I mean, she's just an
35:43
absolute natural, is she not? Like I need, I need Anna, I need
35:47
you to come down, come back to Baton Rouge and come do this
35:51
every week. You are.
35:53
You're immediately hired as a field reporter for Tigs Bits.
35:59
Lasker's powder coating. Love that.
36:03
That's hilarious. There you go.
36:05
Jacob wants to interview someone.
36:07
I think this weekend would be great for you to do that.
36:10
OK. All you got to do is ask, like,
36:13
let's have fun with this gang. We're going to keep having fun
36:16
with it. And hell yeah, dude, let's give
36:18
you the mic and do a little workout crowd, everybody.
36:21
I think y'all would like to see that, wouldn't you?
36:23
You want to see the DJ interview somebody?
36:25
There's no telling what'll happen.
36:27
I will keep it in. I will keep it in.
36:30
Let's do it. Let's do it.
36:32
Deal absolutely a deal and finally let's wrap it up with a
36:37
little northern perspective we had a few fans from Canada pull
36:43
up and they they gave us their take on LSU tailgating I mean
36:48
they look they look like they were having a good time you're.
36:50
From Canada. What?
36:52
How? The hell we all end up here.
36:55
I know we're lost. Valley baby, let's go SCC.
37:01
Go Tigers, let's go. Go Tigers.
37:05
For real though, who brought this about?
37:07
How did y'all end up coming here?
37:09
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we're the Niners are
37:12
playing the Saints and we're Niners fans.
37:13
So we came down and it lined up with LSU and Florida.
37:17
So. So where's coming for?
37:19
Sure, it's kind of a beauty when you could come to this beautiful
37:23
state of Louisiana and do a doubleheader.
37:26
You can go see the Saints on Sunday.
37:28
You. Could go to the cathedral.
37:31
Of College Valley Oh boys, y'all have no idea what you're in for
37:41
tonight. It's going to be fun.
37:45
We. Might go football.
37:46
You know the China, hey, these boys are from Canada, ain't no
37:57
one is up. I think that cup was starting to
38:01
bite back at that point. I lost my voice from that
38:04
exchange. I had no voice basically for the
38:09
game. I enjoyed the game, but I was I
38:13
was not loud. I was not loud.
38:16
Oh yeah, there's my man Mr. Hayes major, what is up?
38:20
I Brantley always come in with the bangers for sure dude.
38:24
It's incredible. It's just an amazing, amazing
38:27
spot. As y'all have seen now for two
38:30
years. The amount of content that we
38:32
get from out there is just phenomenal and it's it's just
38:37
it, it just keeps regenerating and it just keeps feeding
38:41
itself. As long as y'all are liking it,
38:43
we're going to keep on doing it, man.
38:45
I mean, why the heck wouldn't we?
38:48
Why the heck wouldn't we? We'll look, I'm going to shift
38:53
back. I'm just going to bring a little
38:54
news in here towards the end of the show.
38:58
I'm going to be shifting back to build mode for a little bit.
39:02
So for the next couple of Thursdays, you're going to see
39:06
some legendary throwbacks from the Tigs Bits Vault.
39:09
Some of you guys have a lot of new folks that are following the
39:12
show and are part of it. You may not have seen some of
39:16
our older work, Some of our stuff like like our Mart, our
39:19
interview with Marty Smith. We had, we had Diamond Dallas
39:22
Page on, we've had Taylor Hicks on, We've had some of that.
39:27
We did TV shows last year as well.
39:30
Now, I'm not going to get in the habit of doing this, but I need
39:33
to build up some more content. We've gone, we've, we've
39:37
actually done 63 shows this year.
39:40
This is show 64 tonight. That's a lot of shows in a year.
39:45
We're not going to stop doing shows.
39:47
I just want to build, build the catalog back up a little bit,
39:50
make my life a little bit easier and, and start to start to do
39:55
that while we continue to capture stuff because we are not
40:00
done with tales from the tailgate for this year.
40:03
Not even not even close, not even close.
40:06
But but also I wanted to say before I wrap up, before we
40:11
completely jump out of this thing, I want to say thank you,
40:15
thank you, thank you, thank you. We just blew past 11,000
40:20
followers on Facebook and we're about to hit 12,000 any day now.
40:25
And that's because of y'all showing up watching.
40:28
And sharing, being a part of this ride.
40:31
I couldn't do it without y'all. I really, really couldn't thank
40:35
y'all. Thank you, thank you so much.
40:37
It's really fun building a little community and getting to
40:41
make a bunch of new friends along the way.
40:44
And I know what you get, you get there.
40:46
There's a lot of stuff that that social media is negative and for
40:50
all of the negative stuff that you get on social media, I can
40:55
tell you this, there's some pretty daggum good positives
40:58
too. All of you that are in this chat
41:00
with me tonight, all of you that are out there listening to this
41:04
after the fact or watching this after the fact, you're a part of
41:07
that. You're the reason why I continue
41:11
to do this and we continue to grow and and have fun.
41:15
All I can say to anybody out there, if you want to get into
41:18
this, just remember you better have some skin that is very
41:22
thick if you dive in. But that's going to do it for
41:27
this edition of Tales from the Tailgate.
41:30
Like I said, I'm going to be back out there this weekend
41:32
grabbing some more content, soaking up that Tiger energy
41:36
from the heartbeat before the LSU Tigers hit the road for
41:42
about 3 weeks. So we're going to have a little
41:44
lull in there. That's kind of what I'm what I'm
41:46
talking about. Look, if you're not subscribed
