Why did UL get rid of the Cajun Chicken?

[fanof71]

As woke as UL is becoming, the FCC may soon stand for Flaming Cajun Chicken...

I would assume....ESPNLafayette or ESPN1420 or The Goat or whatever the crap they are calling themselves now. Kyle is the only person that listens to them anymore, that and I think some guy named Rodney. They have officially two callers and those are the two, Rodney only talks about NBA and the Lakers and Kyle has weird takes on just about everything.

I stopped listening a while back because it got so bad, with the exception of Scott Prather all of the local talent that they have (and it is few and far between) is CRAP!!!!!

I will occasionally try to listen on Tuesday's because Scott will interview either (Dez, Marlin, Broadhead, Glasgo and/or Deggs.) Outside of that it is complete useless, mindless crap.

Lyndon Burton and the other guy who they took off the air are terrible and only want to talk about the Pels and the NBA, most of Burton show is listening to entire press conferences. The guys who replace Scott when he is on vacation are a little better but still crap.

And the callers are worse then the talent.

If this is how the interview went and I have not heard it yet and don't plan on it, but if it is, then that is a different story then we have all been told for years. The official story was that the gentleman that was doing it as a volunteer moved away when he was offered a transfer with the company he was working for and they no longer wanted to do it without him as the person inside the suit.

If that story has changed, then this is the first anyone is hearing of this.

At one time did Jay Walker ban BWK or did BWK simply disappear for awhile?

I am not sure. I have heard by some of the former on air talent, how frustrated they get with Kyle's calls.

Loved BWK’s calls until they’d get off the rails. Then I treated that just like TTT. Click.

Wasnt he a mardi gras character for a while as well, if so doesnt 100% fit the narrative that he couldnt do cajun chicken because he had to move for work

In 1999, the administrators called me in for a meeting. They told me I was getting too popular, becoming too much of a distraction. People didn't want to see the band, they didn't want to see the team. They wanted to see me perform. I wasn't an official mascot. And I was taking away from the students & the school brand. 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!

[CajunVic]

. . . 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?
