An anonymous poem was published by the Advocate today that tells of the 1959 LSU vs Ole Miss game. I don't know when it was discovered but based on the description of the paper it's likely nearly as old as the game itself. From the Advocate: The poem, "Cannon 7, Ole Miss 3," was discovered at an estate sale by local attorney Collin LeBlanc. Typed (with a typewriter) on tissue-thin paper, now wrinkled and yellow with age, the poem runs two pages. There's no author.I did not expect it to be as touching as it was. With Cannon's statue to be unveiled on Friday this is fitting tribute. You can read it here: www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/entertainment_life/article_c2fa622a-bce1-11e8-a51b-9b7382a796c8.html
