Druid City Brewing Company in Tuscaloosa has become well-known for their clever, mostly satirical chalkboard murals. Well they’ve struck again with a beauty titled “Bayou Thriller”
In the past the murals have featured primarily Crimson Tide related figures such as Paul “Bear” Bryant, Nick Saban and most recently Alabama basketball savior Avery Johnson.
The gloves came off in their latest tap room masterpiece shared by College Spun, as Alabama student Ryan Watson posed LSU head coach Les Miles in a white suit cuddling a tiger cub. The piece pays homage to the artwork on the album cover of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”.

In a video shared by AL.com you can listen Druid City’s Co. Owner Ben Hicks describe the motivation behind “Bayou Thriller”.
The corndog in Miles’ hand pokes fun at LSU fans and the grass he is chewing on is a self-inflicted wound, as Miles has made a nervous habit out of munching on the Death Valley fescue.
