I like stuffing the Pelican's large mouth with kidneys and stomach lining; then you simmer in a broth for 3 hours. Add some Garlic, pickles and peanut butter and you have an amazing afternoon snack.

Love Pelicans. WTF is Krewe?

Krewes are New Orleans social clubs that function primarily for parades, balls, and other festival related events. The higher end krewes are very exclusive, require several thousand dollars in annual fees, and are highly secretive, but they really run the gamut from historically black krewes to new start-up krewes by local organizations or cliques.

Essentially, you can say that krewes are the backbone to the social scene of the country's most social city.

I was personally hoping for "Krewe," just because of its local significance, but "Pelicans" is okay too. The one thing I don't like about "Pelicans" is that Tulane's mascot is a Pelican. It just seems weird for the city's pro and D-I basketball teams share the same mascot.

Pelicans?!?! That will be the worst name in pro sports!

It all comes down to tradition. Technically I think the Lakers is the worst name in pro sports. Especially for LA. But because it is been around forever, and has so much history, it is considered a great nic-name. The Pelicans will be a great name too......in 40 years
 
How 'bout the New Orleans FAMS

My hope was

1. VooDoo (Awesome)
2. Pelicans (State Bird)
3. Hurricanes (Fitting)
4. Surge (Fitting)
5. Crayfish/Crawfish/Crawdads or Mudbugs (whichever they prefer. State Crustacean)
6. Gators (State Reptile)

Colors will be Navy, red and gold, according to their forum
 
How about the BP Bankrupters?

British Petroleum, not Blazer Prophet.
 
After all the negative attention this is getting in the media/sports talk shows, I'll be surprised if they do make the change to the Pelicans.
 
Pelicans > Thunder.

Pelicans > Heat.

Pelicans > Magic.

N.O. Pelicans > Utah Jazz.

Not the worst name, but it's definitely in the bottom ten...
 
^^ I disagree. Pelicans will be the worst name in pro sports, without a close 2nd.
 
a sandy pelican is when you are getting head or fucking on the beach, and you take your meat hammer out, dip it in the sand, and then stick it back in

or so ive heard
 
Cajuns would have been better. They could have had a redneck with a toothy shit eating grin as a logo.
 
Why not "Gators"? They are the indiguous species there; plus they sound much tougher than the Pelicans.

why the hell would you want to do that?
 
Watch, they'll just be known generally as the 'cans. Kinda works with the whole Mardi Gras thing if you think about it.

"You gonna go see the 'cans tonight?" "Of course! You can't go to New Orleans and not see some 'cans."
