Mascot Talk Heating Up!

i like the first post in this thread precisely because it looked like the one from the 50s. turbines second suggestion is not too bad but i still like the flag and hat gator better

Yeah having the luxury of drawing various garb setups is a luxury.

In addition the long snout, various dress up modes was another of the Cajun Chickens secret weapons.

Thread explaining the reason Al Boudreaux should be the mascot:

I want give all of Cajun nation the full pitch for Albineaux “Al”.

I know Florida already has a physical gator mascot. BUT not a white one. Plus, I don’t think any of us should give a damn about what another school, in another conference, in another state thinks about us.

Absolutely no yellow/orange. That is how we get crap like this.

you could do like USM does and the person who wears the mascot suit is kept secret until they graduate and then they walk down the isle in the eagle's feet

So, you want to go back 70 years?

Here's a couple of pictures a friend made up after this last weekend. I like the idea of them having the white shrimp boots (Delcambre reebox)

I think this is 100% better. It's much more current and has some bite. Have to agree with Melrock. Just get rid of the orange.

I think the orange was meant as a reference to Cayenne and the tail spikes could be made as flames as well

Thoughts on Albineaux "Al" Boudreaux?
We think it solves plenty of our mascot problems. Classic, Cypress Lake ode, retro outfit, UL shirt, Louisiana flag. No worries about offending anyone with a Cajun Man. No generic look. No animal to maintain. Curious of how y'all think about this.

I love the concept make it happen details can be ironed out along the way.

i do. retro is IN with the kids now and in the last few years. and this logo was never marketed to the masses. it will never be seen as a retread

I did not see any orange here until Melrock spoke.

Please, Please, Please let’s all quit with the minutia and do this, now, before the next game. I see it developing again into a minutia fest and then nothing gets done again.
