Other than that, the OP has a really good idea.

I think the cheerleaders were forced to stop banging on Mike's cage to get him to roar because some animlal rights activist complained that it might hurt Mike's feelings. Didn't seem to bother any of the Mikes that I saw.

I always thought Mike's V roar was a recording.

Yes, Mike V did NOT like the guy wearing the tiger costume. I witnessed that up close.
Around 1998, I was in the Mall of Louisiana with my then-2-year-old daughter. Mike V in his cage and the cheerleaders were there in the center of the mall doing their thing. We were standing about 10 feet away from the cage, where Mike was pacing back and forth.
The guy in the tiger costume walked up to us and shook my daughter's hand, while the real tiger watched him. As soon as the costumed tiger turned his back on the cage, the real tiger pounced against the bars of the cage, rocking it, and roaring three times very loudly.
It was probably the most frightening thing I've witnessed up close!

Nah. That cat hated him some costume Mike. You'd get costume Mike near him, and Mike V wasn't fricking around.

Dude I can definitely see some USM dumbass making a smartass comment about mike and getting his arse stomped out in the stands. Don't talk shite about mike.

CONFIRMED!
Mike V would get pissed when he saw the costumed Mike approach his cage.

USM has had plenty of hard times involving live mascots. But, i guess all it takes is one bad fan.

Kind of like the student section and the balloon mascot, Ellis Hugh.

You could record the sound and maybe get away with it. But there was NO DOUBT in Mike V's reaction. There was not video/puppetry/holographic special effects that could reproduce that.
FACT
