HOTTY AND TODDY
Nothing says Ole Miss like these two words… “Hotty Toddy.” They embrace the culture at Ole Miss like nothing else. Southern charm, hospitality, pride, tradition… “Hotty Toddy” means all of that and more. Among the Ole Miss family, these words have become a familiar greeting, a way of connecting with others through a shared love of Ole Miss. University historians have searched for the origins of these words and the familiar cheer for years to no avail, but they are as much a part of Ole Miss as the Grove or the Lyceum. This mascot concept would bring those words, and the emotions connected to those words, alive in a pair of lovable characters. The pair may be animals or original “muppet-like” characters, but completely unique to Ole Miss. They can get as spirited and excited as any Rebel fan, and they love to pump up the crowd. And once we win the game, they will gladly be gracious hosts, inviting the other team to come back for more!

Ole Piss says a cheer and doesn't even know what it means! When I went to the LSU/Ole Piss game in November, they called me and my buddy "CORNDOGS". I asked them why yall call LSU fans that and they couldn't answer the question, just kept calling us that.
