After ten years of collecting LSU, a 1959 LSU Sugar Bowl pennant came up for sale!!!!
I emailed the guy, asked him to add a $400 buy it now, and he did!!!! The only other one I have ever seen is in the Sports Museum at LSU!!! Now I have to list a few items to pay for it. ![]()

Each team had it's strengths, and the Chinese Bandits were strong on defense. They would actually punt on third down sometimes if they were deep in their own territory. This formula won LSU the national championship. When other teams were worn out toward the end of the third quarter, LSU was sending in their starters, freshly rested for two quarters. They played iron man ball back them, both ways, offense and defense.

There is this famous (at least around here) photograph taken in 1959 and featured in Life Magazine in Oct.
One other Holy Grail of mine is one of these Chinese Bandit masks worn for the photo. I have heard Billy Cannon has two in his collection, even though he was not a Chinese Bandit. I do have a copy of the magazine ![]()
