Bring Mike back onto the field and let him do one more lap around the stadium on October 12th as we celebrate 100 years of Tiger Stadium and put the beat down on Ole Piss!!

Mike should be on the sidelines every game right infront of the away team tunnel.

Him roaring and growling intimidated the shite out of other teams. Him not being there is the pussification of America and letting those PETA freaks win.

Always this thread during the offseason.

That practice is outdated and stressful to Mike. Why isn’t it enough we have a live tiger in a state-of-the-art facility?

Why do you, likely a grown arse man, need to see a tiger driven around a football stadium in that stupid trailer?

You can barely see Mike in that picture... and that's close up

People thinking this is some awesome tradition that robbed LSU football of its soul is and will always be insane.

You could be sitting 30 rows up in the lower level and would have no idea if Mike was actually in the cage or not.

Honestly, LSU needs just get a 1:1 realistic stuffed doll of the current Mike, put that in the cage while piping in growls through the PA at random points and the mouth breathers on here will think they "stuck it to PETA"



(even though crazy arse PETA actually has nothing to do with any of this.)

He never roared... and no it didn't. LSU's marketing department just said it did back in the day because it was a smart marketing play.

Let Mike decide whether or not he wants to go for a ride. I thought that’s what we did anyway? Did they ever force him in the cage?

I guarantee if you asked Mike, in tiger language, “Wanna be driven around a loud arse stadium that smells like booze and fireworks,” he would say “no.”

Every time I pick up my keys, my dogs run to the back door hoping to take a ride in the car.

What's the difference?
