He is probably pissed at the d-bag wearing a green LSU hat with ND logo on the back. WTF is that?

Yes, named Traveller.

They also have a trojan. (You can make up the story to go with that.)

We actually made our first trip to see the new Mike the day after those pictures were taken. There was a guy there in a wheelchair and Mike VI really liked that guy (it seemed to me that he is a regular visitor). He was also running around and vocalizing a lot, though I didn't hear him roar.

He also spends more time in the water than on dry land. I guess they should have made the water section bigger.

Did they build a new cage to use for the games for the new Mike? He is supposed to be way bigger than the last Mike once fully grown.
