I'm trying to think of comparisons for each school, but I'm not that familiar with traditions.

I suppose kidnapping Mike the Tiger is up there, and obviously the destruction of Bryant's statue.

The hedges. I bet if you random sampled 10,000 college football fans around the country:

1)Where is toomer's corner?

2)Who plays Between the Hedges?

More people would know #2.

Maybe if the tiger was over a hundred years old, and they killed him.

i agree symbolically, but hedges grow in a year, not 130.

Was Toomers a historical landmark officially? I have been there 50 times and never noticed a historical monument.

it's already been done, but it's a little different considering mike is an endangered species and a lot of people would go apeshit if a tiger went missing

Yeah you might have PETA get involved with Mike, but you see what I'm saying.

That was one of our biggest traditions and those trees are 130+ years old.

Ok, but still we've had the hedges for roughly 80 years. It is a major school identity that is a nationally recognized symbol of our school.
