On Saturday, LSU brought back the “tradition” of having a live tiger at the football game. This was done at the behest of the governor and the surgeon general of the state of Louisiana because they saw it as one of the great traditions that makes Louisiana great. Governor Jeff Landry would not have known about this tradition from his time attending college and seeing his school play games, though. His alma mater, then known as the University of Southwestern Louisiana and now known as the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, did not play LSU during his time as an undergrad or at any time between 1939 and 2001.
