Eight Mascots that Need to Die

65
Vote

by user DNL Eight mascots that need to die. Feel free to add your thoughts at the end.

Keggy the Keg

Keggy.jpg

He's the mascot for Dartmouth College.
Suggested method of death: Fill him up with vinegar. Add a big pouch of baking soda. Toss in about six thousand pins. Seal him tight. Sooner or later, the pins will puncture the pouch, leaking baking soda into the vinegar. Boom goes Keggy.

Lil' Red

Lil_red.jpg

Lil Red hails from the University of Nebraska.
Suggested method of death: Cross the streams from your proton packs. Watch as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Cornhusker mascot melts.

The Stanford Tree

StanfordTree.jpg

Stanford, obviously.
Suggested method of death: Three words: "Very Brady Christmas."

J.J. Jumper

JJJumper.jpg

He's the official mascot of NCAA Basketball.
Suggested method of death: Six days in a room with Carrot Top. And a lot of little tiny razor blades.

Big Red

Ohhhh yeah!

Meet the Western Kentucky University Hilltopper.
Suggested method of death: Solomonic divorce proceeding between his natural parents -- the Kool-Aid Man and Grimace.


Billy Buffalo

l2000.jpg

Mascot of the Buffalo Bills.
Suggested method of death: I actually don't have a good one, but man, what the hell are the Bills thinking? Did someone swallow a bucket of neon fuzz?

Gapper

Gapper_photo2.jpg

He's the Cincinnati Reds other mascot -- the one that doesn't look like Mr. Met.
Suggested method of death: Actually... maybe he and Billy Buffalo need to have a fuzzball deathmatch.

Screech

Screech2.jpg

He's the bald eagle (except that he ain't bald) who supports the Washington Nationals. And he looks like he's pregnant.
Suggested method of death: Dick Cheney. Hunting Trip. Need we say more?

Haha, I would like to add "Dinger" to this list. <img src="Dinger.jpg">

I was at the game when the Rockies supposudly discovered this giant dinosaur egg under Coors Field, and then was there again when the egg "hatched" and Dinger was born. It's ridiculous.

"He's the Cincinnati Reds other mascot -- the one that doesn't look like Mr. Met."

Wait a second. The Reds began play in 1869. The Mets began play in 1962. The Reds had Mr. Red long before the Mets even existed. So Mr. Met is a knockoff of Mr. Red, not the other way around.

But I do agree with you, Gapper must go.

As a lifelong Reds fan, both statements are true. Mr Red has been around since 1955 on Reds uniforms from time to time (not every year). However, he wasn't a costumed mascot until the 1980's. Mr Met came second, but was in a costume in 1964. Big flippin deal! It's a MASCOT! The Reds have more titles and that's what counts!

The official school mascot of Dartmouth College is actually: Green. Yes, it is a color. The students there felt that was kind of lame (rightly so), and so one day at a football game, a student ran onto the field in the Keggy the Keg costume. The crowd loved it, and he returned to several more games. The students there loved it, and when ESPN showed footage of Keggy the Keg pumping up the crowd, it was official: Keggy the Keg is Dartmouth's "unofficial" mascot. Officially, of course. And it is awesome. (My twin brother also happens to be friends with the student in the costume.)

Actually, no, it was "found" while constructing Coors Field in 1994, they annoucned it at Mile High while they were still constructing Coors (I was there), and then Dinger hatched at Coors Field in 1995, the first year Coors was opened. They had a whole gig for like a year about how it was about to hatch, and then it finally did after Coors opened.

The PURPLE "wild"cat from K-State has got to be the most contradicting mascot out there. It's purple for christ sake. Strike fear into your opponent with purple. Their game mantra is "Pack it with a Purple one eye touser snake". Talk about brokeback mountain. Their 92 year old football coach had to revive the school with a somewhat better rendition of the old flag carrying faggy. Method of Death: A weekend long, wine induced drunk, with Rock Hudson and that other fag from Queen.

I can't believe nobody mentioned the Blue Devil. What a walking contradiction. When is a devil ever blue? When Hell freezes over. This is what happens when a queer starts trying to think of a "tough" image, but gets the color wrong. I'd say his fate should be straight forward. Since he thinks hell is blue, go there and find out.

I don't see why everybody hates Nebraska and says we suck. Is it because we won three National Championships in the '90's after whooping on every other schools asses under the Osborne coaching era? I have to say, you guys must live in the past BECAUSE IT WAS THE '90's!!! Lil' Red isn't our main mascot, either. Herbie Husker is, with Lil' Red appearing at the games for Herbie's backup relief, as we have such a large stadium that it is impossible for Herbie to be everywhere firing up the crowd all at once. Hopefully it is working after looking at how the football team ended last season. Oh, and Tom Osbourne is now pretty much the front runner for the Governor's Race in our great state. Hope he wins.

Tom Osbourne was an overrated coach. The only reason Nebraska split the National Championship with Michigan in 97 was because he was retiring. Notice they voted champs in the coaches poll. BULLSHIT. Michigan would have beat the hell out of Nebraska had they played in the National Championship that year.

My freshman year roommate at Dartmouth, Chris Plehal, was one of the two guys that came up with Keggy the Keg (the other was Nick Duquette). What's important about Keggy is not so much that he's a giant beer or that he filled the void of a humanoid mascot at football games, it's that he represented a giant "Fuck you!" to the Dartmouth administration. Kegs are banned at Dartmouth unless you register them way in advance. It's a huge pain, it sucks for the environment (we drink a LOT of cans and none of the frats try very hard to recycle) and most importantly, it's an infringement on our freedom of beverage container choice for no apparent reason. Keggy represents getting 'faced, having fun and rooting for the Big Green, but more importantly, he represents a group of kids who got together and decided to make an administration-headed movement to choose a new mascot (of which the Mountaineers and Wildcats were choices... hi, WVU and Arizona!) into a complete joke. The administration that took our kegs and tried to cut the entire swim team over Thanksgiving break tried to throw us a bone by letting us choose the next mascot and Keggy turned the whole shabang into a giant shitburger for them to choke on. Any time students can stick it to an administration that is trying to get them to have less fun by limiting their beer flow or fucking over their student-athletes (these weren't jocks, these were smart kids who also swam) it's a good thing. This list would have been a great idea if the guy who made it actually, you know, went to college and learned how to do some research. Until someone makes a better list, I'll just be content to read all these other comments from people who agree that Keggy kicks ass, even if he comes off a little dorky as an official Ivy League mascot.

A few notes...

for the person who cracked on the Manhattan Jasper as being "the dumbest and certainly the gayest mascott of all time"...first off, learn how to spell MASCOT. It's only posted about 100 times on this page. Next, Brother Jasper of Manhattan College is a legend for his fine work at the school, and he is also well known for inventing the 7th Inning Stretch. The 7th Inning Stretch is a great part of baseball. Baseball is America's game. Therefore, if you don't like the Jaspers, you don't like America. Therefore...

You are a communist.

As for the Jayhawk basher, the Kansas Fightin Jayhawkers were a battalion of troops that fought for the North during the Civil War. To rip on a group that fought for freedom makes you - you guessed it - A COMMIE!

You forgot the West Virginia University mascot, The Mountaineer. Not sure what a mountaineer is?? Me neither. Apparently some redneck with a beard and a raccoon hat carrying around a shotgun. Classy.

Hey dumbass, a mountaineer is a representation of the frontiersmen that explored the...mountains. Plus there is a big difference between a musket and a shotgun. What a moron. I bet you've never even held a gun. BTW, real class making fun of miners that died. The real worst mascot is the Hokie. It is the gayest looking thing I've ever seen.

i went to Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, OK. Our name was the "redmen", our colors were green and white, our letterhead had a chicken hawk on it, and our actual mascot was something that looked like a piss-soaked rag on a green Elmo. I can't remember it's name, but it was something incredibly stupid. <img src=athletics.jpg>

I'd like to know how many people actually don't like the mascot, instead of just hating it because they've got something against the team they represent. I'd also like to know what they based this on? Give me some criteria so I can come up with a better list. Nevermind, I guess this is armchairgm, where people run their mouths about things they know nothing about. carry on.

Bucky the Badger does pushups every time we score during a football game. That means when we kick your ass 50 to 3, he does somewhere around 197 pushups (dependent on the scoring sequence of course) in one game. I wouldn't want to mess with a giant badger that can do 197 pushups...

I happen to like Bevo from university of texas. some Aggies from Texas A&M stole the texas longhorn and branded 13 - 0 into its side, the score of the year's rivalry game. in order to cover up the shame of having their mascot branded by their rivals, the students at t.u. turned the 13 into a 'B', the slash into an 'e', and placed a 'v' before the 0. GO AGGIES!

How about the big head "pistol pete" at Oklahoma State, a good fight would be him and that marshmellow "lil red" ( sounds like a stripper-now appearing on the left stage "lil red" and her big bazookas"). They could beat the hell out of each other until one died and then shoot the other one.

First, don't forget that Nebraska won another title* in the 90s even though Penn State went undefeated (thanks to the fact that PSU played the Pac Ten champ in the Rose Bowl, which was a weak Oregon squad). Look at how many Nittany Lions went on to the NFL from that team -- they'd have killed the Huskers.

Last, why did Georgetown change it's mascot from the bulldog to the Ewok? http://www.t.../sports2.cfm

At least the live bulldog rules -- he walks around campus and he humps everything!

"WKU's big red blob is stupid. . ." It is worse, my friend. It is a caricature of a creature so vile that its eradication was of paramount importance in South Central Ky years ago, but it apparently has been making a comeback. A hemorrhoid would be cute by comparison. It was known as a Tumper, and more commonly referred to as a Gotumper. It is a threat to all manner of livestock. Cows stop giving milk, chickens stop laying, ewes abort their fetuses and the folks at Western Kentucky think it's cute.

"Go Blue" is a perfectly valid Michigan cheer, as the team is referred to as "the Maize and Blue" just as often as it's referred to as the Wolverines, probably because there is no actual anthropomorphic mascot. Numerous Michigan chants contain the words "Go Blue". Calm down. The best mascots are the live ones, obviously. The ever-present distant possibility of seeing Uga or Bevo attack an opposing player beats out anything in a costume.

Michigan's own players admitted that they were more than happy to at least share a title with Nebraska in 1997, as they would never have won that game. Nice AP trophy by the way.

Penn State in 1994 didn't deserve a share of the title, and therefore weren't awarded any part of it.

Suck it, and then move on.

Actually, Virginia Tech's mascot now is not a turkey, but something the school calls a "Hokie bird" (don't ask me why). I was at Blacksburg in January for the Maryland-Virginia Tech women's basketball game, and the Hokie bird noticed my Maryland jacket and walked to my seat. I said, "I liked you better when you were the gobbler (Tech's old nickname)," and it gave me a jovial hug. Still think the nickname is stupid, though. The ACC should have forced Tech to change its nickname back to Gobblers as a condition of membership. Screech is no Phanatic, and worse, two other Washington sports teams already have eagle mascots (the Capitals and United). Personally, I would have made a panda the mascot and named it Nat (can't do it now, though, since the Mystics have changed their mascot to a panda named Pax). The next best thing: release Screech and promote the Potomac Nationals' mascot, Uncle Slam (a big blue thing in a red and white striped outfit) to the big club. (Hey, this franchise sold Youppi! to the Canadiens when it left Montreal.)
