this tiger has the best personality i've seen in three Mikes. i got there about 5pm. he was staring down this dog at the fence. everywhere the dog went, roscoe would chase after him. and that little dog wanted a piece of roscoe too. haha. there was about two feet of fence seperating them. then roscoe jumped in the pool and stared down this little girl through the glass. then he climbed a tree. then he chased a squirrel that got in the cage. then he climbed the rocks and swiped at birds. then he jumped back in the pool and played with his ball. then he started stalking the little kids along side the cage. then he ate some grass. he's huge and beautiful. i sat there and watched him for an hour. all this wicked creature wanted to do was kill something. LOL

i guarantee he's having fun people watching as we are tiger watching. he's a ham and plays to the crowd. i might go back there today.

Well Mike V was very old. That is why he would just sit in that one corner all day long. Next time I am down in New Orleans Im driving up to Baton Rouge just to see Roscoe(and myabe sneak into the stadium).

i remember petting Mike V when he was just a cub. Even then he wasn't really an active tiger. roscoe is a crowd pleaser

good luck trying to get in the stadium. i used to run the stadium bleachers all the time (1995-2000). since i moved back in Jan, it's been locked.:sad:

Everytime I go to LSU its been easy to get into the stadium. You can even get to the hallway where the team comes out for the game and they have the "WIN" goalposts above the door.
