Between chicken on a stick, recruits talking gumbo with Ed Orgeron, and now a “celebratory oxtail,” it’s been an interesting food week for LSU football.

Mike the Tiger got the chance to chow down on a “celebratory oxtail” after LSU’s victory against Ole Miss, the team’s third straight victory.

One of the reasons for the special meal? Last Saturday officially marked the 81st anniversary of the school’s introduction of a live tiger mascot.

Celebratory oxtail in honor of @lsufootball win and 81 years of LSU having a live tiger (October 21, 1936).
