Would they still be allowed to bring it into the game in a cage, or would that also be racist?
not racist bro. PETA thinks it's not "ethical treatment".
but it really doesn't matter what PETA thinks, its all about the LSU vet school; they think getting Mike into the trailer is too stressful and then driving him around the stadium also causes him stress.
hell, we used to zap him with a cattle prod to get him into the cage and then do it to make him growl while he was parked in front of the visitors locker room. i'm plenty OK with that since he still leads a life of royalty but it seems in today's times people don't like causing discomfort to animals even if it's just 6 or 7 times a year. shite, my dad used to cause lots of "discomfort" to me growing up (called spankings, beatings, etc) and I wasn't traumatized for life.
yes, we have turned into pussies.

No change required, but if it must get changed, Ferocious Tigers, CHAMPIONSHIP tigers would not make me want to puke.

I think everyone needs to read the facts:
Charles E. Coates, Jr., a Dean at LSU and the school's first football coach, noticed in the late 1890s that his school, unlike many others at the time, did not have a ferocious animal as its mascot, (as he said later in a letter written in 1937). He thought that LSU's colors of purple and gold resembled the face of a tiger closely enough to use as the team's 'ferocious' mascot - en vogue at the time in the late 1890s.
It had nothing to do with the Civil War. Some people who later 'attributed' 'Tigers' to the civil war regiment were expressing an opinion, not fact. There is no written documentation at all that proclaims that this 'connection is fact. It's total opinion.
Later, it was the 1955 'fourth-quarter ball club' that coined the moniker 'Fighting Tigers.' The word 'fighting' was not added until NINETEEN FIFTY FIVE.
In addition, since the late 1890s, LSU has used the Tiger Emblem from the Washington Artillery -later the 141st Field Artillery - in existence since EIGHTEEN THIRTY EIGHT and that STLL EXISTS TO THIS DAY. Since 1838, the Washington Artillery has fought in numerous foreign wars defending America, including 1846 in the Mexican American war under General and future President of the United States Zachary Taylor.
After earning the designation of 141st Field Arillery later, the unit mobilzed for World War II where it earned the Presidential Unit Citation, serving both in Europe and North Africa.
Between 1959 and 1967 it was called the 141st Field Artllery Batallion, and in 2004 and 2005 and again in 2010 the 141st FA was mobilized to Baghdad, Iraq in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
A detachment from this unit returned to New Orleans to assist in rescue efforts during and after Hurricane Katrina.....

What's the new mascot for LSU?
There's no official mascot. We just unearthed Alton Sterling's rotting corpse and took out his gold grill. We're going to parade his grill around the stadium during pregame and use the t-shirt cannon to blast blood-soaked t-shirts with his name on them. We're not even calling it Death Valley any more. We're even renaming it the Sharon Weston Broome Reparations Field at Take The Statues Down Stadium.
