LSU's Golden Band from Tiger Land issued a statement on its Facebook page Sunday morning to clarify its actions of playing during Florida's tribute to Tom Petty in between the third and fourth quarter's of Saturday's contest.
Petty, a Gainesville native, died last Monday at the age of 66.
LSU's band started playing "Pregame/Touchdown" for the Tigers as it normally does at the end of the third quarter. The Petty tribute started and LSU's band kept playing while the Florida fans booed the band heavily.
Here's what the band posted on it's Facebook page:
