For those not in the college football know, one of LSU's love him or hate him players, Tyrann Mathieu, was dubbed the honey badger (inspired by this amazing viral video) at the beginning of the season. He earned this moniker due to his tendency to zip around the field making some pretty sweet plays and, as the video goes, taking what he wants. Mathieu has had a rocky road the past few weeks and likely destroyed his shot at the Heisman, but when I saw this shirt combining my love for LSU with my love for ridiculous internet memes, I knew I had to have it on my body.
I won't be watching LSU play WKU in our homecoming game tonight 1) because homecoming is traditionally a lame matchup that doesn't air on any of the channels we get and 2) because I'm working. But you'd better believe I will be representing my team in my rad honey badger shirt.
Haha. I have been seeing the honey badger video all over the blog world since it went viral, and found it mildly hilarious, but always thought it was just randomly hilarious, with no backstory!

Hope your team wins!
