Mascots

Yesterday I mentioned Reveille IV, the former mascot of Texas A&M, and her elaborate funeral. Since that post I have done a little digging, and I discovered that there are over fifty (fifty-one I believe) live mascots across three divisions.  In fact, Army has three live mascots - three mules named Ranger, Raider, and General Scott.

My favorite mascots to watch:

1)  Colorado's Ralphie the Buffalo leading her team onto the field

2)  Even though Auburn's War Eagle isn't the official mascot, watching the Golden Eagle do the War Eagle Flight at Jordan-Hare Stadium is exciting

3)  Watching Chief Osceola and Renegade plant a flaming spear at midfield is intimidating

4)  And every USC fan has enjoyed watching Traveler gallop around the track, that has since been replaced, after every Trojan score.

Other Mascots that I love to see on the sideline:

1)  Bevo (Texas)

2)  Smokey (Tennessee)

3)  Mike the Tiger (LSU)

4)  Dubs (Washington)
