Looked like he was going after the dad instead.

Bama doesn't consider you a rival.

according to some of the posts on the video...the guy in the blue shirt is there all the time and can pretty much get Mike to do whatever he wants. i don't know if he's a university employee or not.

Now the guy goes to visit Mike everyday, and the cat can literally pick the guy out of a crowd and will swim/walk over and interact with him through the glass.
A kindered spirit of sorts. There's something about the guy that Mike likes.

Tom the Tiger at Memphis is pretty cool too. I don't know the lifespan of a tiger, maybe an LSU fan can help here. I don't know if it is still the same Tom, but in 1991 at the Bama-Memphis game at Liberty Bowl Stadium Memphis introduced Tom II that day when he was a just a little guy about the size of a labrador. Anyone who knows how long the current Mike been around that could answer whether Memphis would still have the same tiger in 2013 that was a little fella in 1991?

If he is, it is probably on its last leg. Tigers in captivity live to be 15-20 years old, in the wild only like 12-15 I think.
We haven't gotten Mike as a cub in a long time. They have pictures of cheerleaders holding Mike III I think when he was a cub in some parades.
