Call me by my name…

Our golden tiger mascot finally has a name!  The school held a “Name Our Tiger” campaign and more than 3,000 votes were cast. After weeks and weeks of advertising and voting and sorting through all of the many suggestions, it has finally been decided.  The name was announced during the Homecoming pre-game show on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2019.

No more, “Hey You,” or “Hey Tiger.”  Now you can call him by his name. His name is…”PARLAY.”  Yes, the Tuskegee University golden tiger’s new name is Parlay.  It comes from our popular “Ball and Parlay” song played by the band.
