If you’ve been on campus since the semester began, you know there’s one thing that everybody has been talking about: Roar-ee’s new look. Clearly, over break, the feline sensation went home and decided to level up by getting a perm. It’s been 113 years, so I guess it was about time. Along with his new hairstyle, the mascot also has a new outfit consisting of a black Puma high-neck zip-up and five-inch inseam shorts, sure to make all the lionesses go wild.
Since word got out about Roar-ee’s new appearance, Columbia basketball games have experienced a remarkable 2000% jump in attendance numbers. Unfortunately for eager fans, Columbia Athletics has had to install a private box above the arena at a safe distance for Roar-ee to watch the games, as he worries one solid tousle from a student could totally ruin his whole new vibe.
Envious of all the attention Roar-ee has been receiving, several other Columbia faculty members have reportedly adopted the hairstyle, including Dean Sorrett, who was spotted last Tuesday with a conspicuously lush blonde head of curly hair.
