The Campaign for Albineaux continues…

The university won’t “accept” it because it wasn’t their idea. And that’s the ONLY reason.

Spot on brother !!

I'm not saying you're wrong but if true I would add Ragin' Cajuns wasn't their idea either.

But that came from within the university.

True, a coach.

[CajunEXPRESS]

But that came from within the university.

This university was a different place when that happened. A lot has changed, for the worse, in the last four decades. This place used to rock all the time.

The university won’t “accept” it because it wasn’t their idea. And that’s the ONLY reason.

The university can be moved if enough people are moved. We saw that with the Ticketmaster thing. We saw it with the vintage collection. We saw it with the adoption of the “Ragin Cajun” nickname.

We saw it with one of my mascot inspirations “The Fabulous Cajun Chicken.” Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t that start with just Russel wanting to entertain Cajuns fans at games? He had passion and creativity, and he shared that with everybody. The university embraced him until they needed a character that better reflected the university (and could be run by students). That would have been a good play but the character after him wasn’t born from a fan’s passion like the chicken was, but from a marketing firm. Because there wasn’t enough passion and creativity around Cayenne, here we are talking about needing a mascot. Mind you, we are talking about getting ANYONE mascot, and not a NEW one. Cayenne isn’t even in the ring to compete anymore. He’s been gone for ten years and a lot people didn’t even know that until I started kicking up dust with my first Albineaux presentation. That’s how much of a failure Cayenne was. I never want our fanbase to go through that again.

Focusing on the word “compete,” I believe competition breeds excellence, right? That’s why I’ve poured so much into this next presentation. Albineaux has to be great in order to make sure whatever character they are being tight lipped about right now is also great. Otherwise, we’ll be talking about mascots twenty years from now.

You are preaching to the choir. It doesn't really matter what we all think here, it depends on what the administration thinks. In its present form, I think they will reject it. I hope I am wrong.

More images from the next presentation.

Those are some high quality images. Nice work!

A.I. had a hard time generating a courir de Mardi Gras outfit. My apologies on the inaccuracies. I hope this still coveys the idea.

Almost presentation day for Phase 2. One section is about SKIT POTENTIAL. A mascot that is associated more with liking to eat (like a gator) rather than being eaten (like a pepper or a crawfish) makes it more relatable to Ragin Cajuns fans (who love to eat).

In this picture, you could see what could be a fun day when the Coastal Chanticleers come to Cajun Field. Imagine Al dressed up in traditional Courir de Mardi Gras outfit going from one tailgate to another begging for ingredients to the Chanticleer gumbo.

This will not only be a way to get the entire fanbase in attendance engaged, but also a fun way to show off the uniqueness of Acadiana’s culture. The cULture should show the best parts of the culture.

I know you used A.I but gotta leave the hat off, not make it look like a witch.

Maybe instead of red just make it all different type of colors like the Mardi Gras outfit if only used on special occasions. Doesn’t have to be red all the time . Maybe give him a cowboy hat or something instead of using a traditional Mardi Gras hat. Here is a photo to base that might help the AI.

. . . Louisiana across the chest . . . Ragin Cajuns on the back name plate . . . Cap with the L on it . . . get the darn mascot suit made for the bowl game in the Dome . . .

That’s what I was thinking for the chest. Great minds…..

A cajundome hat would work.
