L19S62U – Sidney E. Rodgers (1962 BACH BUS), of Deatsville, Ala., displays his Tiger tag in the midst of Auburn and Bama territory. Rodgers received his Golden Tiger pin at the 2012 Golden Tiger Reunion sponsored by the LSU Alumni Association and also attended this year’s reunion in May.
LSU!LSU! – Les Chaney (1976 BACH BUS) and wife Patricia (Patty) Alessi Chaney (1978 BACH HS&E) have lived in Cary, N.C. for 19 years, and both have served as president of the North Carolina Triangle Alumni Chapter. When Les received his license plate renewal notice this year, Patty came up with the idea for his special LSU plate. And though the outcome was not what they hoped for, Les said, “Very cool to have this plate when LSU played UNC in the CWS.”
Bragging Rights Fund Scholarships. The LSU License Plate Program has generated more than $2.8
million since its inception in 1992; in 2011, it generated $405,990. In Louisiana $25 of the $26 annual fee goes to the scholarship fund. Currently non-revenue-generating plates are in Georgia, Mississippi, and Texas. A second Texas plate released in September 2010 generates $5 per year per plate in royalties for the University.
