This is a black & white image of the Mike the Tiger statue in front of the Habitat for LSU's live tiger mascot Mike VII. This statue is dedicated to John Ferguson the original voice of the tigers.

Ferguson began broadcasting LSU athletics in 1946 and retired in 1987. He also did play-by-play for the New Orleans Saints for a time and other sports events both regionally and nationally.

Ferguson was the voice of LSU football on Saturday nights, when the broadcast could be heard in many parts of the country on 50,000-watt station WWL-AM. There weren't many night games around the country for many years. So Ferguson had the airwaves virtually to himself, and college football fans became familiar with his distinctive baritone voice.
