There’s nothing like being an LSU Tiger fan on a Saturday night in Death Valley. The stadium hot dogs, pyrotechnics and school spirit is perfectly tied together by one thing: the music. With one of the biggest games occurring this weekend, here are the top songs you’re bound to hear on a Louisiana Saturday night:
6. Alma Mater
This song may not be the one to get Tigers pumped for a big game, but it’s the one that gives them a sense of community. Current students and alumni come together, in a stadium with over 100,000 seats, to sing the school anthem as one voice.
Get ready for the stranger next to you to hold onto you like you’ve known each other forever when this song sways students and alumni side to side.
5. Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne
No song ranking list is complete without some dad rock, if this song could even be considered that. Crazy Train is a great crowd pleaser while the Tigers are getting crazy on the field and hopefully leading the team to a Death Valley victory.
4. Swag Surfin by F.L.Y and Easton
Nothing energizes a crowd like a little Swag Surfin. This hit is the perfect mid-game pick me up that students can’t help but enjoy. As the game can become slow and the drinks wear off, this provides a minor dance break to get the mood back up. No game is complete without a little swag and surf in the stadium’s crowd.
3. Louisiana Saturday Night by Mel McDaniel
Third place goes to LSU’s beloved Louisiana Saturday Night. As the title states, this song is very fitting for a Saturday night in Death Valley. There’s nothing like a country song about Louisiana while sitting at a football game in Louisiana.
2. I’m From Louisiana by Louisiana Ca$H
Coming in second is a Louisiana classic. Considered the unofficial anthem by many students and Baton Rouge natives, this song is a Death Valley staple. This song is fun, energetic and bound to get the student section hyped up.
1. Callin’ Baton Rouge by Garth Brooks
This list wouldn’t be complete without Callin’ Baton Rouge in the number one spot. This country ballad kicks off every football game and sends a jolt of Tiger pride through the crowd. No LSU Game Day would be complete without this jam.
