Pathetic. LSU fans should be ashamed

2theadvocate.com | News | LSU fans win first battle of mounds — Baton Rouge, LA

The battle for the LSU Mounds has been won by football fans for now.

Children were using signs, reading, “Please do not slide on the mounds” and “Help preserve the mounds,” on Saturday as makeshift sleds on the mounds.

The mounds, which are more than 6,000 years old, were made by prehistoric American Indian tribes and are older than the Egyptian pyramids. The mounds are believed to have been used for ceremonial and marking-point purposes

Mann said many people obeyed the barricades initially, but that, by the afternoon, a combination of alcohol consumption and growing crowds created a “critical mass” that resulted in people ignoring the ropes.

“Change is not easy,” Mann said of traditions of tailgating and children playing by the mounds. “It would be nice if people would not just think of the mounds as big piles of dirt.”
