WAR FLAMINGO!!!!!

[Paisa el Toro]

 

Some of our contingent of USF fans that experienced Auburn back in 2007 will not let this die. Other parts of the contingent feel it's utterly stupid.

 

FIFY

 

That's an accurate fix.

I'm not a fan of this at all but, you can't make the flamingo green.  Even this were to take off the flamingo has to stay pink.  Just have it wear USF gear.

[Rizman]

Wouldn't a Flamingo be the Miami mascot?

[JTrue]

I think technically speaking, there might be one or maybe even two wild flamingos this far north.

Please let this die

No, their mascot is a midget pelican.

Miami's mascot is an Ibis.

At the Auburn game, who have two mascots (you can have two mascots if you are an SEC team apparently), it was really interesting to see how the War Eagle thing worked up there. Its a greeting, an exclamation, a battle cry, a retort, acknowledgement, and a goodbye. It's kinda cultish.

Anywho, because we beat them, some students decided we should either make fun of them, or have our own moniker, that being the War Flamingo. Which is why, if you watch the 2007 USF WVU game, there are a bunch of bright pink flamingos all over the student section.

I know, but that's the only way I get to mock my Miami alum brother these days...it looks like a smaller pelican without the huge beak.

bunch = 2

[Hem]

some love the War Flamingo, some love the p*ss yellow helmets.

 

Both symbolize the same thing, winning seasons and relevancy.

 

I hope we have our next "thing" this season....
