Title: Ole Miss new mascot, Admiral Ackbar?
Post by: Kat Kid on February 25, 2010, 09:48:47 AM: So Ole Miss decides to replace their goofy, racist mascot. They decide to let students vote and the most amaszing oppo for a KatPak head-esque re-branding of the South begins...

Their tagline? "Who wants a Col. when you could have an Admiral?"

By the way, goEMAW needs to begin following olemiss_ackbar immediately.

Why wouldn't they? Tons of sorority chicks in the SEC would have to go rent Star Wars to find out what the f*** Ole Miss is talking about.

I'm thinking orange jumpsuits with white vest markings on the jersey. White helmet.

Not bad, but methinks it is a fail without incorporating a lightsaber in some way.
