Why do you stupid mouth breathers continue to post this? It's never going to happen, nor should it.

Why should it not happen? Did it harm any of the previous Mikes in the previous idk 30 fricking years previous? Did you have a problem with it then?

Why? It never seemed to matter the previous 30 or so years, never had a problem with Mike being in the trailer before now. Hell, people used to love it.


Ah, the good old "well, we used to do it, and people liked it, so why stop now that we know better" argument. Putting Mike in that cage and parading him around to be screamed at and frightened by the fireworks is inhumane, plain and simple. It wasn't right to do it then, but we didn't know better. Now we do.

Grow up and leave the past in the past, old man.

Because standards have changed.

It could have. Do you know for a fact that it didn't?

I know it's the noise and people factor. Saying if there were ever to even consider it, it would be for a sparsely attended game. Not the biggest game of the year.



The habitat is considered a tiger sanctuary and Mike VII, VIII, IX, X, etc. will NEVER be put in the trailer and paraded around the stadium again.

To be fair let Mike play in Devin White stead.

Now THIS is an idea I can get behind.

Well then don’t have the fireworks! People would much rather see Mike than the fireworks.

Colorado still runs with their buffalo, UT still has Bevo out there on the field, Florida St. still rides Osceola and Renegade, and USC still rides Traveller. All without any major incidents that harmed the animal and all without cages. And with Texas and Colorado, the animal still stays out on the field with people yelling and screaming. Should they stop that too?

Mike is in a trailer where he can’t get out and hurt anybody or himself and is on the field for maybe 15 minutes, then he goes back to the habitat. Stop with the inhumane shite.

That's what I'm trying to tell you. It will never be considered. Not for any game, for any reason.

Yes, I paid attention to it, fricking idiot. LSU shouldn’t kowtow to the SJWs in this or any instance.


Obviously you didn't pay close enough attention to it. LSU would lose it's status as a tiger sanctuary, if they put Mike in the cage for a game. It's not a SJW thing, it is the way things are today.

So, who is the "fricking idiot" here? The one who is telling you that is can not happen, or the one who started a thread about something that has no chance of it happening?

For the last time, LSU is trying to get sanctuary status for the tiger habitat (or was because I don't know if it has been granted.)

A condition of that status is not having Mike paraded around the stadium.

Put Devin white in it and park that bitch right next to the Gump locker room for Old Times sake.

Every Mike who rode into Tiger Stadium in a trailer is now dead.

Think about it!

Is a governing body telling us we can’t have him in the trailer? Which one? And I guess they missed the whole fact that on average, our tigers live almost double the life of the average tiger, must not be so inhumane that he won’t be able to live.

You should google the definition of "hyperbole".

1. what do you mean by "now"? how long has it been since they gave Mike the choice? it has to be at least a decade.

2. at LSU, "but we used to do it" is maybe not the greatest argument in the world if youre trying to bring something back.

Ok. So, thanks for proving you haven't read anything. No point in arguing with you any more, you are just a flat out moron.
