Fine, sorry, my bad. I should have said "I bet half the people here haven't watched a college baseball game."

The only reason I didn't is because I don't have any numbers to back me up on that statement. But it's relevant and the Rant normally doesn't like sources anyway so my bad.

The majority of people that are aware of what the rally possum is enough to complain about it have definitely watched a college baseball game. That's all I'm saying. The fact that it isn't popular nationwide is irrelevant to the cross section that complains

I feel pretty confident I am close with that estimate.

1% of America is a little over 3 million people.

The highest rated college world series ever was the 2011 series that had 2,233,000 viewers.

So that means there would have to be another 800,000 people who watched a game but don't follow the sport enough to watch the championship. That seems like a stretch.



Even for Aggy, and even for you in particular, this is about the feeblest attempt at trolling I have ever seen.

Last year's CFP national championship game drew 25.7 million viewers. That's less than 10% of the U.S. population. So, 90% of the U.S. population has never watched a college football game?

Well, to be fair, for cardboardboxer, "while you're behind" means pretty much any time, so this isn't really asking much of him.

Oh, heaven forbid I should derail the "legitimate discussion" of whether LSU should or will change its logo to Rally Possum. My bad.

Our mascot, logo and identity is that of a Bengal Tiger.

The opossum that found its way onto the outfield is a novelty rally fad.

But,then again, at least the opossum doesn't wallow around in its own feces like the hog.

No, it's not a Bengal tiger. It's any kind of tiger. The current Mike is more Siberian than Bengal. "Bengals" has been nothing but an informal reference to the LSU Tigers. LSU's mascot is the tiger, regardless of his color or heritage.
