Hey you can see how the students act at ballgames so that pretty much explains the idiocy there. RTR!

The petitions so far has claimed 450 students signatures, stating that the Tiger represents "powerful white males."

 :lol2:
Usually I applaud students for getting involved in activities while on campus.  It's part of growing and maturity. 
But this seems obnoxious and an attempt to join the growing divide between races in our country.

A tiger?   :-\

It's not like the Confederate Colonels still out there.  (While Ole Miss has the stupid bear now, UNLV still has a Col Reb, Nicholls State is named after a Confederate officer and their mascot looks like a Nazi, and EKU still has a colonel. )

450 sigs seems pretty small for that campus.  Just someone trying to stir things up...

They could change their mascot to the Black Panthers.  LSU Fighting Black Panthers!  Yeah, there is nothing racist about that...  :dunno:

LSU Fighting O's

LSU Corndogs, or Corncats, so there's no prejudice.

LSU Gumbo Gobblers

LSU Bayou Beignets - Shouldn't trigger any of the easily offended students.

Feel free to add to the list.
