Ole Miss adopts the Landshark as its official mascot

http://thedmonline.com/breaking-ole-miss-adopts-landshark-official-mascot/


After heated debate and conversation, the University of Mississippi is adopting the Landshark as its official mascot. Chancellor Jeffrey Vitter announced the retirement of Rebel the Black Bear in a letter Friday morning.

Full letter at the link. . .

In closing, I want to state unequivocally that we are — and always will be — the Ole Miss Rebels. And I am asking all Rebels to unite around our new Landshark mascot.
Hotty Toddy and Fins Up!

Jeffrey S. Vitter

Gee, I hope they cleared it with Jimmy Buffett and Landshark Brewing to do this.

BTW, Jimmy is a Southern Mississippi grad (Hattiesburg)

Remember SNL landshark routines?

Sorry. No embedable videos. NBC doesn't want them.

Google "landshark candygram".
