Eye of tiger vs Tounces

LSUpathdoc · 01-28-2010, 09:29 AM

It's a shame we cant petition the school to change the damn tounces thing. The cat always looked like a special friend to me.

It's been tried
CHANGE OUR LSU LOGO!!! Petition

Here is a thread for it from back in '06
Petition to change current LSU Mascot Logo

I voted eye of the tiger because I hate Tounces but I really don't think the eye looks good on stuff either.

Damn so much for that. I didn't even know there was a petition out. Learn something new every day.

That seems to be the majority of people. Its my fault I should have put

as on of the options on the poll.

Can we get one of a tiger hittin' the gator doggystyle?

stevescookin · 01-30-2010, 03:36 AM

That's a tiger eating a gator...devouring it...not hitting it.

Seriously guys, they should use the cat in my avatar. Its not just an ordinary cat. Its a bengal cat bred to look like a tiger. I would love to have one but they cost about $4000

HalloweenRun · 01-30-2010, 08:51 AM

Eye of the Tiger is NOT ORIGINAL as well as being hackneyed. Go old school.

I'm not a huge fan of Toonces, but I don't mind it like a lot of you guys do.

I picked the Eye of the Tiger though.

i dont like either. the eye of the tiger is too associated with rocky and that dated song.

From a liberal perspective, I think there would be a lot more concern about Tounces marriage rights than whether he can appear on an SEC helmet.

From the information I have gleaned through the years reading these boards it came to my understanding that this logo was based upon an actual photo of Mike III.

Have seen some bad duplications recently, but the original that was on the schedules the athletic department gave out in the 60's and 70's was way good.

perhaps it does "look like crap," but it's fierce, original, and recognizable. so what if it's a bit rough around the edges, it's unique. toonces looks like some videogame-nerd-wannabe-graphic-designer's first go with corel draw -- in other word's, fail.

I think you misunderstood me. I think TOUNCES looks like crap. I actually like this

. Frankly I dont know why that wasn't the logo in the first place.

I think I also misunderstood I guess I though tounces was a drawing of Mike III but it would make more sense if this was

.

I have a couple of shirts with that logo on it, so at one time, it was used. I wish they would go back to it.

TUSKtimes · 02-13-2010, 11:03 AM

This thread has been running for a while, thought I would put in my two cents on the logo thing.

As you can see from my own Avatar, having an eye for what works is most important. My motto "If you dress for success you are a success regardless of the score".

The "Eye of the Tiger" has it's moments. For example the 50 yard line. That's the best look and kind of creepy which is good for opposing teams on a Saturday night. But otherwise loses it's effect on other stuff. Maybe too much ink you sort of lose that "Eye".
I like the Tiger with it's paws on top of death Valley Stadium. Good look, very classic.

One more thing when LSU goes Purple, great look. Why not more often?
