He's been awesome. Great guy too. The Show will be officially thanking him pre game vs. New Mexico.

Sorry... While I appreciate the man inside, I intensely despise the watered down PC outfit he wears which makes me cringe each time I see the Aztec for Life Commercial knowing it's reaching a national audiance. Mike is not a clown, but the outfit he wears makes him look like one before the entire nation. Please change it. SOON!
I posted on this recently in the Zuma (Ugh...) thread and it was pretty much ignored and covered up by the infighting & all.
Look at Old School's new sig banner which highlights the Aztec depicted in the Kia commercial during the Super Bowl. 100 million people saw it and it is more to my liking. Based on the history that I researched last week, the depiction of his clothing is pretty accurate. It also is not confusing Aztecs with Incas for those who really want to dig deep.

I think Mr. Lopez has done a great job in the role of the Aztec Warrior.
I hope this thread can serve as a de-facto congratulations/thanks thread instead of the usual mascot debate tripe.
Come on! Let's try it. GOOD JOB MIKE!

Mike,
thank you for your time and effort. You have represented the school, the team, and the pride of SDSU well. As you hand off your shield and shell to the next, go with pride as you are the warrior.
thanks E.

As to who gets the opportunity, we should have a warrior competition. Allong the lines of the tv show "Ninja Warrior." The winner blows the shell to signifiy a changing of the guard. Just a thought.

How 'bout an outfit more like this.

Different subject so why not start a new thread? Sipe has some ideas for a new uniform and from what I saw, it could be a dramatic change.

I was completely skeptical of this young man when he took over as Monty (yes, Monty), being that Carlos was SUCH a presence. But this kid is GOOD! His body has completely changed, and his persona is now amazing. Going to be sad to see him go, he's done such a great job; big shoes to fill! As for Zuma, I was shocked by him, but he's fine. Doesn't bother me one bit, unless their intent (which I highly doubt it is) is to have him replace the Warrior. I think you're thinking of Miguel, the guy before Mike. Miguel took a few games to grow into the role as well, but he turned out pretty damn well (Miguel is the one featured in the "Aztec For Life" commercial). Mike is the second guy since Carlos hung up his headdress. Thanks for doing the Aztecs proud, Mike! Mike is great. I do not think that is Miguel in the Aztec 4 Life commacial. It is Mike.

I like it and looks to be moving back to Montys stile unfiform.

Yah that is Mike in the Aztec For Life commercial, not miguel. But yes Mike did a great job. And still does. He will be missed.

Recognition should also go to Carlos for his work in showing Mike the ropes.

Pic 13 is really awesome. The only thing I would add to that outfit is a cape. Capes are awesome and look great when a person is running.
