I agreed with that assessment & we decided I should retire.
That's for sure the take I got from the interview. But what do I know.
I heard the same thing BWK. Also, he added that the school mentioned the push for the Pepper was about to start.

I thought I heard something about the San Diego chicken and some type of conflict or a likeness and San Diego chicken was talking suing but I could be wrong but thought I heard something to that effect.

I heard it was because he was too clucking good. No one was ever able to get the worm because he was always the first to get there. There are many theories as to why he moved on, but they were all chicken $h!+ in my book. Only he knows the reason why he crossed that road. BUT! I'm glad he's back. Looks like he's coming home to roost our spirits!

. . . many here are very hard of hearing and apparently that has not changed with respect to the FCC . . .

That's what I thought as well.
And I may be wrong, but maybe the disappearance of the Chicken coincided with the appearance with Budman?

I want one but the "they're spicy" cooking reference is cruel marketing ;)
Might as well say " Come watch the Russell Heim Chicken march to its death.

LOL will do.
Evidently any "Pepper" innuendo associated with the spirit leader freaks me out. :)

Re: Why did UL get rid of the Cajun Chicken?
Unfortunately I will be unable to attend, but I hope that the UL video staff will video as much of the FCC as they can to help preserve history. When the FCC was in his prime it was before cell phones and video as we know it today. Therefore, there is not as much of his antics that are captured and available on YouTube, etc for those that were not around back then to see.

IMO he never took away from the action, but added lots to the games.
And that was the issue. Not only did the administration not want to pay the guy, they didn't even want him in the building. For a school whose mantra is supposed to be a business school, that university absolutely sucks donkey balls when it comes to running their own business.

I forgot about the fact that UL had just overpaid for new logo and the flaming Dildo spirit leader. Typical state non logical behavior.
