Ole Miss won’t have Admiral Ackbar as a mascot, if George Lucas’ parsimonious and sentient chin-wattle has anything to say about it. The remaining three candidates for ill-advised plushification are “Rebel Bear,” “Hotty and Toddy” (we don’t know either), and ... “Rebel Land Shark”?
Ole Miss Mascot Derby: And Then There Were Three
While we’re petrified that the good Doctor is correct and the most boring choice will out, there remains a small chance for bizarro costumed glory. We are told that the Land Shark actually has roots in an already-existing Ole Miss tradition, but that doesn’t mean the school can’t get a little creative with the execution.
We’ve assembled some helpful ideas below. (And failing this, we will take the EDSBS suggestion of an alcoholic chafing dish with a gun and a catfish with a gambling problem for “Hotty and Toddy.”)
