LSU, fans what is Geaux? How do you even say that word? Where did it come from?

NoDakHusker · 07-22-2010, 06:37 PM

It's the Louisiana take on saying Go.
In French eaux makes an 'oh' sound. So it's just another way of saying Go, with kind of a French take on it.
Consider the French influence in Louisiana and it makes sense.

*not an LSU fan, I just know this.

I am not sure of the origins but I just believe it is the "Cajun way" of saying "Go Tigers."

i don't actually know, but i just assumed it was like a french Louisiana way of saying "go".

How do you even pronounce it though? Do you just say Go Tigers and just spell it Geaux?

Correct, it's just Go spelled differently.

I think that's pretty much it
