Florida State was smart (yes even I will admit it), they made a deal with the Seminole tribe.
But they have phased out the use of “Scalp ‘Em.”
What do you suppose our 'chop' symbolizes?!
Only one group of Indians -- the Seminoles -- successfully resisted removal from their lands and they did so fiercely. 1st Seminole War, 2nd Seminole War, 3rd Seminole War. Three strikes and you’re out. The Seminoles place in history was assured as the only American Indian tribe never to have signed a peace treaty with the United States Government.
