University of Mississippi is looking for a new on-field mascot and they have their eye on Admiral Ackbar. While some fans think it might be “a trap,” students are very serious in their quest to replace their old mascot Colonel Reb with the beloved Mon Calamari.
According to the site urging for his promotion — Notatrap.org:
We here at Notatrap are in full support of Admiral Ackbar for the new Mascot for the Ole Miss Rebels. Who wants a Colonel when you could have an Admiral?
There’s also a flyer to download in case you want to show your support.
You can also follow them on Twitter here.
This would be the best thing to happen to sports since….well….this would be the best thing to ever happen to sports.
Please make this happen, Lucasfilm!!! Think of the merchandising!!!!
The rebel insignia would look really cool on their football helmets!!!
The Florida Gators couldn’t repel a mascot of that magnitude!
No Star Wars for Ole Miss!
Any other team, just not UM!
Land sharks would be a wonderful mascot for Ole Miss Rebels!
As long as he won’t wear a hat.
that’d be funny, every the other team runs a fake… he can shout “Its A TWAP”
Hey I’m from MS. The fact this is happening from one of my state’s schools is one of the greatest things i have heard.
