Poll - BullGator Mascot/Spirit Leader

[CajunStuckInBR]

No Offense but I do not like the Alligator!
The Louisiana logo for one, automatically reminded me of Univ of Miami, the gator itself reminded me of the Florida Gators, and I'm just sick and tired of UL constantly playing with the idea of a new mascot. When I was at USL we were the Ragin Cajuns, with a "Cajun Man" mascot, "Chicken Man" mascot, but the school voted later to change it to a bull dog mascot. Since then we have this goofy pepper thing! We even appeased the political correct crowd by dressing a guy up in a pepper suit!!!!! Please, that looks so stupid. We are the Cajuns and although we can use countless icons to represent us, let's go with one and stick with it!
I'll be at the UL-lsu game this weekend... Hope to see a lot of you there!
Allons Cajuns!

Not sure what you are looking for but you might want to check the poll thread. (same subject)

I assure you, nothing is missing. :confused:

Turb,
But you see that's the thing about the Twilight Zone, you never really know. Was it there or was it not? Did I hear that or didn't I. Was it a corndog or a twinkee on a stick? It's a weird, strange place and you always have to watch your step.

That gator has been in the weight room and taken roids.

Change the (Miami) "U" to Louisiana and have him taking a bite out of a Red Pepper, hence the "red" gator. The Red Pepper would still be used, just not as an on-field mascot.

I'm not worried about the similarity with Florida. I don't know of any other school called the Gators. We would be in elite company. Sort of like using ULA (like Virginia - UVA or Georgia - UGA) that would distinguish us from Louisville.

With so many teams called Tigers, Bulldogs, Cowboys, Aggies, etc., only two called the Gators wouldn't be too bad. We need a clear mascot along with Ragin Cajuns. The Bulldog no longer fits, Mr. Cajun didn't work, and the Pepper is rediculous (as an on-field mascot).

I kinda like the whole thing with the Catahoula Hounds. I like the statement of using Louis and Anna as thier names. I think that would be something that would work really well as a live mascott plus we would not have to spend thousands of dollars to replace one should one die. Nor would we have to build some ungodly pen to keep them in. It is just a thought.

I didn't want to know.

It almost looks like Turbine dressed in that get-up, at least according to that little picture by his name.

I like the red gator. the pepper could be on his jersey in some fashion. We would not have to spend big bucks on a cage for a real one either - we already have the swamp on campus. He will not be the only gator among NCAA mascots, but Tony is not the only tiger either, there must be 10 of those, and several bulldogs, cowboys, etc. I don't believe that to be an issue, especially if he is red and wears distinctive UL colors and the pepper. Keep the idea about the Catahoulas too, why not, Auburn Tigers have their War Eagle and it works for them. As for costume for the Mascot-Gator, less is more - kinda like that one the Icegators had a few years back. A head piece for sure but keep movement free enough so he can do some kicka** stunts and gymnastics stuff. I believe the Cayenne thing is a bit lame. Let's face it, he looks like a really ____ed off tomato and I don't know anyone who likes him. Louisiana Red! Louis and Anna!

In the words of Mr. Burns..."excellent..."

But does it paralyze the opponent with fear like the Pepper?

(yeah, that was a joke...)
