Kentucky has a wildcat (or overgrown house cat -- the same damn thing if you ask me). He stays at a wildlife refuge in Frankfort and I'm not sure if he goes to the games or not.

We miss Mike V...buts its great to see a playful tiger on campus!!!! What a beautiful animal!!!

Actually, I'm wondering if they had to build a new travel cage for Mike VI. From the looks of that beast the times we got to see him riding past our tailgate last season, it appeared that he was already getting to be just about the right size for the cage. This makes sense because at the time he was only about 50 pounds lighter than Mike V, the cat the cage was built for (if I remember right).

Of course, Mike VI is going to pack on about another 300 pounds by the time he's done eating other mascots, so unless that cage is big enough for two, he's going to be REALLY uncomfortable in there.

Baylor used to keep one, a much smaller Bear, on a leash on the sidelines at fb games.

Houston had a Cougar who also stalked sidelines on a leash.

Texas Tech Has a Horse and Rider.

UTEP has an old Miner, who is 82 yrs old now and lives in a shack right on the edge of campus. He is paid with soup.
