Mike vs. Reveille story...

Here is a great story my dad told me that I thought I would share with all the Tiger fans before Saturday-

"Since the Tigers are
> playing the Aggies this week it reminded me of a funny thing that i witnessed
> in Tiger Stadium when I was a young boy. My Dad took me to the LSU/Aggie game
> in 1956 when Bear Bryant was still coaching the Aggies. Prior to the game two
> of the Aggie yell leaders were around midfield with the Aggie dog mascot
> Reveille. They were having her show off in front of the Tiger fans. About
> that time Mike in his cage was brought onto the field and was stopped behind
> the south endzone. The Aggie yell leaders noticed this and took the leash off
> of Reveille and sicked him on Mike. Reveille took off in a full run toward
> Mike's cage. At about the 10 yard line the mascot must have got a whiff of
> Mike and tried to put on her brakes and slid end over end into the endzone.
> Reveille finally got to her feet, tucked her tail between her legs and took
> off in a dead run north. That dog is probably still running away from
> Mike. The LSU fans went wild when they saw what was happening. This is
> still one of my many great memories in Tiger Stadium."
