Yesterday, at the beginning of the fourth quarter at The Swamp, Florida did this awesome tribute to Tom Petty that, if you ask me, should become a new tradition from now on. 90,000 people all singing “I Won’t Back Down” as they went into the 4th was by far the coolest thing I saw yesterday.
The tribute was announced earlier in the week after Petty passed, so people knew it was coming and they were ready for it. But as the 4th quarter was about to start, LSU’s band decided they were just going to play whatever generic ass song college bands play in between quarters. Keep in mind, this is right as the Petty tribute is about to start.
Let’s just say Florida fans were not happy about that.

You do not screw with Florida fans and their Petty.
