\nNo. 15 LSU has been criticized for unveiling a live caged tiger in its stadium for the first time in almost a decade before they were routed 42-13 by No. 11 Alabama in their SEC showdown. <\/p>\n
Ahead of \u201cThe First Saturday in November,\u201d a live tiger named Omar Bradley, owned by Florida resident Mitchel Kalmanson, was brought out in an enclosed cage with a black curtain over it, before the stadium lights went dark and a spotlight flashed onto the cage as it was unveiled.

\nThe tiger laid down and then paced around his cage, which was attached to a truck, while photographers crowded around it, still keeping their distance. After a few minutes, the cage was slowly driven off the field at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. <\/p>\n
LSU has a long tradition of bringing caged tigers into the stadium on gamedays but, since 2015, the school has moved away from this and instead keeps its current live tiger mascot named Mike VII in a 15,000-square-foot enclosure on campus.
\nBut Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry pushed for the return of this tradition, much to the frustration of the LSU community, which circulated several petitions against the practice which gathered more than 27,000 signatures between them by Sunday morning. <\/p>\n
Footage posted on social media also showed protesters outside the stadium holding placards with slogans including, \u201cJustice for Omar\u201d and \u201cDid Tiger King teach us nothin\u2019.\u201d <\/p>\n
For Landry, having a live tiger on the field was all about \u201ctradition,\u201d he told FOX News on Friday. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis is about from Mike One through Six, we have had a live mascot on the field like many other colleges have before,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
