We have a live Begal Tiger mascot on campus at a time when political pressure will be mounting for us to get rid of it

How can they make us get rid of it? He won't get in the trailer, so obviously he ain't going anywhere.

On a serious note....and while most will not get my above rant as somewhat a tongue-in-cheek statement of missing " the good old days", I think LSU has a case as to why we take better care of a live tiger than most zoos. I do not see LSU ever losing the ability to keep a live mascot. We are not Southern, who kept that poor jaguar in a cage smaller than the cab of my truck. ( Notice they haven't even tried to get a new cat).

No, I just kinda threw that up to get everyone bitching about something besides the team, Miles, etc. I do miss the old days....perhaps that is one of the first signs of getting old.
