Wanting to bring my little girl to see Mike today. Is it hard to park and get to him during a school week? And is he outside most of the day? Help is appreciated

He's usually inside on Thursday mornings for yard work. If you have Facebook, you can check his page LSU's Mike the Tiger and they post when he is out in the yard.

if you follow his facebook page, they usually let you know when he is inside for yard work and when he is back outside.

There is visitor parking across the street. Just costs a couple of bucks.

Last year I went in Baton Rouge for a visit and went to see Mike, beautiful facilities they have for him. A student on a long board went by and he chased him down the fence line from his enclosure.

I'd advise against parking in student spots because the LSU Parking Office hands out tickets like candy on Halloween. However, there are a few first come, first served paid spots right between the athletic admin. building and the stadium.

We should re-name him "Mike Leach the Tiger."
Would be outstanding.
Utterly outstanding.

Every tiger since Mike II has been trained to kill hippies.

You will not be able to park on campus until 4:30PM. You might be able to find a place near the ticket office on North Stadium, but with it being rainy, people are going to be parking as close as possible anywhere you go.

Things start to lighten up after 2PM, but your best bet is to just wait after 4:30PM... Especially today, because of the weather.

If you are a visitor you don't have to pay it. You just mail the ticket explaining you are a visitor and plead ignorance.

They have some pay parking spaces on North Stadium and I've never had any problem finding one when we visit Mike. I think there's a time limit for them to discourage students from parking there. It's a pay station, so just remember your spot # and then put $ into the machine nearby.

That’s one way

He’s usually always glad to interract with his caretakers so he’ll respond when they call him in.
