From the please-God-let-this-happen files: after ditching Colonel Reb, some students at the University of Mississippi (a.k.a. Ole Miss) want Return of the Jedi‘s Admiral Ackbar — of “IT’S A TRAP!” fame — to be their school’s new mascot.
I guess it would be a natural step for Ackbar, a member of the Rebel Alliance, to join the Ole Miss Rebels. And apparently Lucasfilm is “flattered.” Does that mean they’ll allow it?
