I saw a possum in my yard during 7th inning of game 2. It reappeared yesterday during Sergio Garcia's par shot on 15.

Coincidence? I think not!

I used the term used by the bumpkin crowd here. I've never seen anyone say "rally opossum."

I'm getting a solid base of upvotes too.

I'm tired of the undesirable element at LSU trying to foist a possum and corndogs on us. LSU isn't Park Manor Trailer Park in Zwolle.

You ever been to Zwolle? Great place, love it. We are, for most part just slow walkin, slow talken, country people!

I hope we we go full possum if it means you're gonna bitch about it every week and get destroyed for it. Loving this--keep it up.

I'm not insecure about being from LA so I don't give two shits about this concern.

this is college baseball, boy. If it's popular at your school, chances are possum is a form of edible meat.

beyond that, baseball is silly sport when it comes to superstitions and such. Let it be, boy; let it be...

This is what we sound like when we talk about the rally possum. We win games because of better play than our opponent, and we lose games because of opponents play better than we did. Some possum has nothing to do with it.

Louisiana has a bad enough rep for being backwards without having some "rally possum" hype.

The tiger is our mascot and lets keep it that way.


I thought it was hilarious.

Some of you guys take yourselves too seriously.

Well no shite. Nobody really believes the possum has anything to do with us winning (or losing). But nothing wrong with having a little fun with it. Some people like to take all the fun out of sports.

Well...since we don't have a tiger in the habitat right now, the possum is our adopted go to mascot. Those possums have sharp teeth. Plus if the baseball players believe in the possum then I am all for it.

I've eaten breakfast at Bill and Sissy's (before it closed) many times. I just picked Zwolle at random.
