Looks like Smokey is dressed as a piñata for Hispanic Latin Heritage Month which runs from January 19-February 17 2025.

I think Smokey was probably there to add some fun and mystery to the show! Sometimes characters like that pop up without much explanation, just to keep things interesting. It’s all part of the vibe they create.

There’s been a guy on the dance team or in the band handling the flag twirling every year. We call the current one Lamar. Sorry, not sorry.

The current male dancer is Jordan James, son of Andre James of the 1998 football team. Sounds like he's got a proud dad.

Well they do have national championships. If Jirdan has earned the spot, then good for him. But he still reminds me of Lamar.

Doesn’t strike me as Chippendales material but there’s no accounting for taste.

Nothing says we respect and acknowledge the Hispanic culture more than dressing up like a piñata. Amirite?

Personally, I would have preferred a sombrero on top of Smokey, but something that stereotypical may have been offensive.
