I like it as long as its a real dog and not some styrofoam gizmo. Just one thing about Gumbo LSU is going to accuse UL of stealing their yearbook name.

The Auburn Tigers have a "War Eagle". Why can't the Ragin Cajuns have a Bulldog?

[CajunKahouna]

OK, if not a Bulldog then how about a Moccasin, as in water, or a Pelican or something.

i say we just have a live bulldog and let that be our mascot. Maybe brand Ragin Cajuns on him.

I agree, I dont know many people afraid of a Cayenne Pepper.

[Cajun Express]

How many people are in mortal fear of a buckeye hitting them on the head? How many people are terrified of a country boy husking corn? How many people are worried about an engineer making boilers? How many people are curled up in like an infant from the mighty Ducks, or some lame land grabbing cheating Sooner. Stanford has a tree for crying out lound the only time you fear a tree is in hurricanes, or if they are dead and getting ready to fall.

My belief is that a spirit leader or mascot needs to typify the region, and I do believe the pepper does that, but how can you make a living moving pepper.

Now the BEST mascott I have ever seen is the UCSB Gaucho. WH not do something like that? Instead of a costume, just take an ordinary guy, dress him in cajun style clothes, and voila!

As CajunRebel noted Cajun Chicken was not there to be filmed. Although I have it on good authority he really wanted to be there.

Here is my version of what happened: The hups (higher ups) didn't want the chicken to overshadow the monetarily invested pepper so they issued an edict that no bright yellow objects or articles of clothing would be allowed on the court.

Seriously though? This (to me) exposes the shear weakness of the pepper mascot in that it couldn't withstand the rigors of a single throwback game at Blackham.

It would be nice if that ugly pepper would actually come to the basketball games .

ooh i hate the pepper, such a gay mascot, hugged me once cause the idiot friends of mine told the pepper that it was my birthday, i wanted to push the pepper down the steps, simply cause i dont like the suit, it just looks so idiotic, i know a bulldog was a bad choice considering the humidity and their ever present breathing problems in high humidity but cmon, what marketing flunky came up with that
