    I know the KAs have a cannon, but it was the Louisiana Military Museum supplying and operating the civil war cannon when Dooley asked them to leave because they refused to leave their trailer outside the stadium.

    Incident with the KA cannon happened before Dooley was even the coach way back in 2000 so its possible we are both right.

    The KAs used to, but it was the people from the Louisiana Military Museum supplying and operating the cannon who refused to comply with Dooley's request.

If nothing else they'll have it for the future. If you have any better shots of it though, that would probably help and I'll add them to our stadium updates thread.
    LSU's cannon shoots corndogs.

    I am glad that thing is gone, it used to hurt my ears and made watching the game difficult.

    It used to be the KAs, until the shot a wad of newspaper into the stands and put a pretty big dent in them. Then the Sons of the Cofederacy took over, then Dooley got rid of it.

    You'd hate both OSU and OU games here then. I swear I'm at a rock concert and not a football game with all the cannons, smoke, and fireworks.

    I liked the canon. I looked forward to the thunder and the smoke after each score, and I felt like something was missing after dooley did away with it.

    I'd still like high tech laser lights coming out of Dawgzilla for night games after scores.

    That said, we haven't been able to find information on Louisiana Tech and figured I'd ask your help with the information. Here is what we need:

    School: Louisiana Tech
    Cannon (Yes/No)
    Cannon Type (Modern Military or Classic Western)
    Fired After Every Score (Yes/No)
    Inside Stadium/Field Level (Yes/No)

    Any information you could provide would be a great help.

    I would hope EA sports has had a chance to update Joe Alliet Stadium. The last release of the game did not include the new video board.

    current aerial photo of the football facility.

    or here
    And, dear God, please get the commentators to pronounce the name of the Joe right. It's Joe "Eye A" not "Ailliet"

    Cannon thread? Attendance smack? Sunbelt Posters? Conference Realignment?

    Yep.... It's officially the off-season.

    Has there every been a poll set up to allow the fans to vote on the cannon? I personally liked it.
