Yeah ok. Maybe actually learn about the mascots before making shite up.
So all three schools have some REAL tiger connection?

I know what LSU's connection to the tiger mascot is. I can't speak for the other two, but I imagine theirs are also unique to them.

The regimnet out of louisiana in the civil war were called the "fighting tigers". thats where the mascot came from dipshit. Reason why LSU are the only real tigers.

I don't know about Auburn and Mizzou, but LSU does.
A regiment of Louisiana soldiers distinguished themselves in the Civil War by defending their area and ferociosly fighting to protect it and were known as 'that Fighting Band of Louisiana Tigers.'
Also a squadron of Louisiana fighter pilots who distinguished themselves during WWII were known as the Louisiana Fighting Tiger squadron.
'Mike' the Tiger, LSU's live Bengal/Siberian Tiger was named after the first mascot's trainer, Mike Chambers, and who every subsquent mascot, including Mike the VI today has been honored to bear his name.
Mike the Tiger lives in his own privately-funded habitat and is cared for the world-renowned and nationally-ranked LSu School of Veterinary Medicine.
