Isn't the LSU Tigers literally named after a Confederate regiment nicknamed the fighting tigers?

Auburn - War Eagle is somehow racist


Direct reference to the Civil War.
Good as gone.


The most popular story about the battle cry dates back to the first time Auburn met Georgia on the football field in 1892 and centers around a spectator who was a veteran of the Civil War. In the stands with him that day was an eagle the old soldier had found on a battlefield during the war. He had kept it as a pet for almost 30 years.

According to witnesses, the eagle suddenly broke free and began majestically circling the playing field. As the eagle soared, Auburn began a steady march toward the Georgia end zone for a thrilling victory. Elated at their team's play and taking the bird's presence as an omen of success, Auburn students and fans began to yell "War Eagle" to spur on their team. At the game's end, the eagle took a sudden dive, crashed into the ground, and died.

But the battle cry "War Eagle" lived on to become a symbol of the proud Auburn spirit.

War Eagle

The eagle is the national bird of America which is at its core a racist country. The eagle will be canceled.

Slaves were fed to tigers in the Roman empire for entertainment so the tiger will be canceled as well. Auburn will be out of two mascots here shortly.

"Beat the hell outta [insert team]" - implies teams (typically a lot of black players) are inherently evil and have hell in them. Racist!

“Dixieland Delight” made its return to Bryant-Denny Stadium during the fourth quarter of Alabama’s win over Missouri. The song was played during a break with 13:32 to go in the final quarter after Damien Harris scored on a one-yard touchdown run to give the Crimson Tide a 39-10 lead.

Harris and several Alabama players danced on the sideline during the song. Cheerleaders also danced. Cards played on the video boards instructed the crowd words to chant during the pauses between lines in the song.

At the point in the refrain at which some fans had previously shouted an expletive directed at Auburn, the PA system played a loud recording which said “Beat Auburn!”

The connection to the confederate fighting unit will be brought up, again. Plus, tigers kill black people over there in Africa or whatever.

It's done. We're over.

I assure you the Cancel culture left has their sites set on Florida State.
100 bucks within 12 months there will be a name change, the chant is gone and the guy on the horse is replaced with a gender neutral Teddy Bear pre game.

Yeah but he asked what the bet was on the next. Don't think it's hard to make a guess "Dixieland Delight" would go before "Tigers". No reason to be a bitch.

Tigers nickname was originally used in the Mexican-American War, so maybe it’s safe LOL

If the word Dixie is a target, Auburn is double fricked. Both the alma mater and fight song include it.

Add to that the fact that the school doesn't own the copyright to the fight song, it can't be tweaked or re-written to remove it.
