LSU Gumbo Yearbook 2023-24 - Book - Page 92
During Mike the Tiger’s long
reign, Mike has overseen
hundreds of thousands of fans,
games, and overall school
spirit. His contribution to the
community has an immense
role in relationships and overall
building a great fan experience.
Whether he be at football,
volleyball, or basketball games,
Mike is always seen rooting
on the student athletes and
engaging with many different
age groups, especially kids.
Fans travel many miles to
come and see this real-life
mascot. With a brick courtyard
and seating area to watch
this playful critter, fans love
being able to see an animal
in its natural habitat. It helps
that it’s conveniently located
near the LSU Sportshop, a fan
apparel store. LSU is currently
on its seventh tiger since this
environmental enclosure
opened in 1934. Open any time
of the day, check out Mike’s
habitat to see him live and in
action!
