It may have been adopted by some Tiger fans who heard some Gator fans saying it. The first time I ever heard anything like it was in probably '95 or '96 when a Gator player (I think it was Lawrence Wright) said, "If you ain't a Gator, you Gator bait". Direct and factual quote, definitely from the mid-90's.
"Tiger Bait" itself was ripped off from "Gator Bait", right? Or is it the other way around?

That I don't know about. I've always thought "Tiger Bait" came first. When I moved here in 1990, it seemed very strange to hear Gator fans saying "Gator Bait". So at the very least, "Tiger Bait" is much more well known.
But I do believe pretty firmly that Lawrence Wright originated the whole "If you ain't a ________, you ________ bait".
