- snarks, on 07/25/2008, -1/+38Worst College Mascot Ever?
http://www.evergreen.edu/athletics/geoduck.htm - BetterOffEd, on 07/24/2008, -3/+40This is a great list. I can certainly see how a live, 700-lb+ Bengal tiger that lives on campus in a giant 15,000-square-foot elaborate zoo habitat for all the world to see and parades around on the stadium field before every home game (and subsequently growls at each visiting team as they come out of their tunnel onto the field) is easily omitted from the list...

You're absolutely right—a *****' collie is *much* better than that.

- Dillywin, on 07/25/2008, -4/+20Arizona State university has Satan as its mascot. People call him Sparky i call him satan.
I run around yelling Go SATAN GO SATAN.
so
GO SATAN - mikerad86, on 07/24/2008, -5/+20I really don't understand how the Gamecocks didn't make that list...
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -2/+12Both the 3,100-member Seminole Tribe of Florida and the 6,000-member Seminole Nation of Oklahoma officially approved the relationship and the details of the images used and FSU gives free tuition to any person from the Seminole tribe.
- JasonCox, on 07/25/2008, -0/+9Hi, I'm Mike Rowe and this is my job.
- SOS84, on 07/25/2008, -2/+10Of course, there is no need to put the greatest of all mascots in the history of mascots on the list. The Banana Slug is the unquestioned king.
- ExSlashdotter, on 07/25/2008, -1/+8You mean Florida State. Florida's mascot is the gator.
- ThePerkins, on 07/25/2008, -3/+9Get apathetic if you don't care.
- ironeus, on 08/01/2008, -3/+9Bevo was named after a 13-0 loss so it's funny the name has stuck around. Sidenote from my college days: Sparty may look cool but he stinks, literally; there is more spilled beer on that mascot than a NY bar after a pro wrestler visits, especially on a warm fall day.
- airwalke, on 07/25/2008, -0/+6The Iowa State Cyclones had an actual tornado show up an hour before kick-off when we played Colorado in 2005. CU can have their buffalo, but even their head coach was impressed by our live mascot. ;)
- ousthouse, on 07/25/2008, -4/+10The War Eagle - it's so awesome, it's not even a mascot and it still makes the list.
- efitz11, on 07/25/2008, -2/+8Hokie Birrrrd!
He benches 1000 lbs for every point we score in a game, lets see the bulldog do that ***** - Ryan166, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6and beer.
- Linkin4, on 07/25/2008, -0/+5ERAGGGHHHHH
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6I'm angry too.
- MrTito, on 07/25/2008, -2/+7War Eagle is awesome. Anyone who's been in Jordan-Hare stadium when that eagle flies over can testify it's pretty bad ass to see. Glad it made the list.
Aubie's not so bad either. He's been the Capital One Mascot of the Year a few times I believe.
God damn I'm ready for football season to start. - sublimer, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6I'm wearing my VT shirt right now! Actually, it's about all I own. I've never seen a school with as much spirit as us, and I've spent time at some fanatic schools like Texas and Penn State!
STICK IT IN, STICK IT IN, STICK IT IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - bazooze28, on 07/25/2008, -1/+5Chief Illiniwek Forever
- hokie47, on 07/25/2008, -1/+5I am glad to see all the Hokies here on digg. College at VT is great, jumping up and down during sandman, the Hokie Bird, and strapping bottles of liquor to my legs and passing it around to my friends and sometimes strangers. I need to go back again soon.
- doddilus, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4wow i can really feel the love for VT
seriously a college mascot list is required to have the Hokie Bird on it - brunevm, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4As an Auburn Fan, I completely agree. How the hell could Lassie make the list before Mike the Tiger.
Looking forward to another twisted AU-LSU game this year,
War Eagle! - mecharabbit, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4I like the mascots that are real animals, like Georgia's Uga, Texas' Bevo, Colorado's Ralphie, Ohio State's pubic lice. Yeah, I know that last one isn't an "official" mascot, but there are still billions of them at any given Buckeyes game.
- basawyer, on 07/25/2008, -1/+5hokie for life
- kadio, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4MOTHER FVCK YOU ARE RIGHT!
- trixyfox, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4Bucky is the best mascot ever. The pushups are amazing. I remember calculating how many he did when we whooped Indiana 59-0. Ah, what a game
- Hetayis, on 07/25/2008, -1/+5I'm angry.
- ndanie3, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4Geaux Tigers! c/o '07.... come on, a ****** collie? I'm surprised they didn't put a green wave on that list
- airwalke, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4The fight song is even better.
Go, Geoducks go,
Through the mud and the sand,
let's go.
Siphon high, squirt it out,
swivel all about,
let it all hang out.
Go, Geoducks go,
Stretch your necks when the tide
is low
Siphon high, squirt it out,

- Lunchbox37, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3Hell yes! Buckingham U. Badger, actually.
He even does pushups and leads people in jumping! That's just cool! - m4ttGT, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3TO HELL WITH GEORGIA!
Go Buzz and Ramblin' Wreck! - kevin11atvt, on 07/25/2008, -2/+5hokies forever, the hokie bird is sooo pimp
- nodong, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3Where are the Banana Slugs?
- killbert24, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3This list is lame. Go to this site for a much better top 10: http://sports.espn.go.com/travel/news/story?id=322 ...
Go Banana Slugs! Yee-ah! - LurchSTA, on 07/25/2008, -1/+4Geaux Tigers! Class of '07
- nafai, on 07/24/2008, -9/+12Dugg for Bucky Badger!
Wisconsinites in general are totally crazy in their support for the Badgers... - ExSlashdotter, on 07/25/2008, -2/+5BetterOffEd, I logged in just to digg you up.
I saw the list, and i'm like "mike and his new habitat have to be at the top of the list". Nope. A dog. Everybody's got a dog. My sister has a dog. But how many people have a bengal tiger?
geaux tigers c/o 2005 - vanzan, on 07/25/2008, -0/+34 out 10 are from my BIG 12, I can live with that.
- gatorfree, on 07/25/2008, -3/+6As we used to say at Florida ... FSU ... C-K-S-. Then we would pass out in a pile of puke on top of our stripper classmates who went to lectures in bikinis. God I hate my life now.
- ExSlashdotter, on 07/25/2008, -2/+5The Reveille also happens to be the name of the LSU campus newspaper.
- TheBigBad, on 07/25/2008, -1/+4The mountaineer has a rifle. If his accuracy his good, Ralphie doesn't stand a chance.
- b3owulf, on 07/25/2008, -1/+3You dumbass, the team name did not come from the song, or anything hokie related.
Hokie Hokie Hokie Hi
Tech Tech VPI! - Nysul, on 07/25/2008, -2/+4'tis true: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparky_(Arizona_State ...
- LetsGoHokies, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Yea, it didn't come from the Hokie Pokie and it is not the name for a castrated turkey you dumbass.
http://www.hokiesports.com/whatsahokie.html - Manguskahn, on 07/25/2008, -0/+2Joe Paterno + The Nittany Lion + PSU > everything that is, has, or ever will be.
- jizzlies, on 07/26/2008, -0/+2Someone sent me a better list:
http://www.bofads.com/stories/collegemascots.htm - sharp357, on 07/25/2008, -1/+3Yes, though really not important, it did.
