Meet Tony the Landshark, Ole Miss new mascot.

Tony was revealed on Saturday at Ole Miss’ fan day, Meet the Rebels. Tony replaces controversial mascot Colonel Reb and also Black Bear.

Tony was inspired by Ole Miss’ Tony Fein who is credited with creating the “Fins Up” celebration.

His favorite movie is Jaws. His favorite song is “Fins” by Jimmy Buffet. His favorite food is anything below him on the food chain.

Kentucky Football will not have to face Tony the Landshark this season, but Kentucky Basketball probably will.

What are your thoughts on Tony?
