What would YOU do to get a tiger named after you?

No, I'm not being weird.  The Wildlife World Zoo had two newborn tigers and decided to name them Raja and Nash.  Here's a link to a picture with the real Nash and Raja holding their tiger versions.  I don't want to post it on the site since I didn't ask permission.  But the photo was taken by Rob Schumacher from the Arizona Republic.

Man, I wonder how I can get a tiger named after me!?!  Any suggestions?  What would YOU do to get a tiger named after you?

Heck, forget about having one named after you...
How cool would it be just to touch one of them. Especially that white one which they said is really rare. Maybe you have to be a "cat person" to understand how truly awesome that would be... :)

Thery're awesome
I was fortunate to have front row tickets to Siegfred and Roy about 4-5 years ago and Roy let me pet the baby white tiger he had on a leash. I figured it would be soft but it felt like one of those wire-hair terriers.

Baby tigers
The Suns' web site has video of the Suns' with the namesake tigers.  As Nash crouched down with his twin girls, it was so cute the way he would suddently stand up when it looked like Nash, the white tiger, was getting feisty and might take a swipe at one of his twins.

Thanks for pointing the video out
For those of you that want to see it, you can find it here:

I had a little bit of a hard time getting the video to play all the way through it.  But it is pretty cool!
