Who gives a shite? Take away the stupid cannon and fireworks that can’t even be seen during the day games. That is generic try hard bullshite, Mike is tradition.


I understand that. I’m not talking about being an annoying presence to us, but an annoying presence that raises enough fuss through their channels to get the tradition ended.

Unlikely, sure, but more likely than Mike ever circling the stadium again.

The reason it ended was the stupid fireworks, not the crowd noise. Like I said get rid of the fireworks.

Just wait till Trump wins baws.

We are gonna ride that cat in a cage around the stadium and park it outside the visitors locker room like it’s 2003.

Hold on, Trumps comin’!

Spare me.


Y’all act like it’s some antiquated barbaric practice that we stopped doing so long ago.

It was the mid 2000s

I don't think anyone can stop LSU from getting a Tiger. There just wouldn't be any special designation.

Not exactly.

In the past, the concern was that reputable, accredited sanctuaries would only send tigers to other reputable, accredited sanctuaries. So if LSU were to lose sanctuary status, they would only be able to source a new tiger from non-accredited, for-profit habitats/breeders. This would mean buying a tiger from one of those breeders, and therefore supporting the industry. It would be a PR nightmare given all of the exposure that industry has received lately.

That’s changed. Now it is illegal for anyone to…
quote:

Import, export, transport, sell, receive, acquire, or purchase in interstate or foreign commerce, or in a manner substantially affecting interstate or foreign commerce

… a live tiger, unless they meet specific federal requirements. LSU qualifies for an exception regardless of accreditation, as “state universities” are on the list. However, none of the other institutions with exceptions (USDA-licensed facilities, universities, and sanctuaries) are going to sell a tiger to anyone who isn’t also licensed/accredited.

What this means is that LSU can’t legally source a tiger from a for-profit habitat anymore. So loss of sanctuary status = no more tigers.

The same vets that claim roaring is bad for a tiger's health?

Why would a politician think he knows better than the animal handlers who care for him every day? Never mind, I answered my own question.

Honestly, I loved it as a kid.

Looking back, having 100k screaming at you in a tiny cage cannot be exciting for Mike, unless they give Mike some tiger Xanax.

Simple but my favorite comment on topic lol. A relatable coming of age story, two sentences.

This is the best news I’ve seen all month. I don’t know anything about Landry but I definitely support Mike the Tiger on the field. Everyone else is adding traditions, we are throwing them away.

He's never been wheeled out in that cage his whole life, and we're going to suddenly drive him into a screaming Tiger Stadium?

Louisiana is the GOAT when it comes to electing retards. It’s truly a state run by the people for the people.
