PETA will manage to break in and “rescue” Mike at some point and the woke crowd will demand the demolition of his habitat.

definitely one of the great traditions at LSU
I witnessed a whole lot of times through the years. Too bad so many of the great traditions at LSU had gone by the wayside.

Imagine being arrogant enough to pretend you know what a TIGER is thinking. And actually declare it in public. “Muh doctors” don’t speak Ti-gerian either clown. It’s all made up excuses because of laziness and fear of being sued

There was nothing better than them getting Mike to roar in the mic before a game. It was our battle cry. A shame it’s gone.

Before tiger awareness it was awesome to see the opposing team come out next to the tiger. Changed their mind set for a minute.

Man, as much as I hate that the tradition died I completely understand why they don't put Mike in the cage and parade him around the stadium anymore. It has to be sensory overload and very stressful on the animal with or without the stupid fireworks.

I wish at the very least about 15 minutes before the team runs out the tunnel LSU could show old footage of Mike going a round the stadium in his cage on the big screens as a tribute to one of the greatest traditions in college football.

I’m for Mike going to the games… but the “upscale environment “ shite people spew is ridiculous… Mike a damn tiger a jungle would be considered more upscale than a “grand cage”

Charles Dupuy in the tiger suit, I believe. I was in the band. Pretty sure that's the game we lost like 17-12 to Nebraska. They were definitely a powerhouse back then.
