mascot

What school has the best mascot. What school has the worst mascot. What school doesn't even have a mascot.

No offense to Scott City, but the Beavers. Come on, that's pretty bad. Same with Pratt, the Greenbacks. Why not just be the frogs. Once again, I really don't want anybody to be offended by this.

The Beavers rule, i'd wanna be beaver but instead i'm a bronco

but yea the FROGS isn't exactly the best but it could be worse and be the ligers

What is Clearwaters mascot? A cup of water? BUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I crack myself up!

Oberlin Red Devils Rule

Hesston is the Swathers (Tractor with teeth looking thing)

First off the Fighting Frogs of Pratt are an original mascot, no one else has the same mascot in the enitre US-so leave em be (PHS Class of 94). The term Greenbacks comes from an old football coach and the practice uniform,it is a long and complicated story, but know that people from Pratt get very angry when you bag on their macot!
Also according to David Letterman the #1 worst High School Mascot is the Ft. Collins Colo. Lambkins..yes a baby lamb is their mascot. A friend of mine wrestled at FT. Collion High and said the wrestling mascot is the balcksheep but come on a baby lamb!
As the saying goes around Pratt "Once a Greenback, always a Greenback!"
Coach Brown

Coach Brown didn't you wrestle for FHSU? If you are who I think you are I listend to you poke fun as well.

Wow...frog or baby lamb. Tough decision there but I grew up believing I was a "dog"...a Husky. How about instead of "worst" we go with "unusual" because I'm sorry but a frog? Greenbacks is a great name...but associated with a frog?? This is more like trivia. Never knew but now I do.

Well Chapman's mascot is the "fighting irish" Its a tiny little leprechaun with his fists upturned, its pathetically funny though.

It is obvious that the best Kansas wrestling mascot is the Indians. St Francis, Hoxie, Leoti, and Manhattan. The Indians have won more State Championships than any other mascot.

Southwest highschool in Nebraska are the Roughriders, I guess they have no undies.

PS I don't want to hear any PC crap about offending anybody. You should be proud that schools want to use these mascots.

UC-Santa Barbara has the coolest mascot ever - the banana slugs. This creature of distruction can be seen on the shirt of Travolta in the movie "Pulp Fiction." I think they have a pretty good basketball team there as well. I believe we should change the name of the Heavyweight division to the Banana Slug division.

The dumbest mascot would have to be any mascot from a Texas university. Not a fan of Texas, I have to admit.

Newton Railroaders...what do they dress up as during basketball games? Maybe a freight train?! Am I on the right TRACK?... Buahahaha, I'm so full of corny jokes today.

Hill City...we are the cocks or ringnecks if you want to be official. Only team in the U.S. with a ringneck as a mascot.

Ummmm any question why???

We are actually Fighting Indians down here in Clearwater. Well, we used to be at least, I think we dropped the Fighting term because it offended to many people or some dumb reason like that. And you can add another state title to the name cause we got one in 1993.

At least our mascot (newton) makes sense. You know because we are a train town. Look at some of the other train towns forgetting their roots. DOdge City Red Demons, I mean was their town founded by the Devil. Come on at least stay true to your town.

Sheldon High School in Iowa (proud hometown of Tom and Terry Brands) has one of my all-time favorites.

They are the Sheldon Orabs. No, not Arabs; Orabs. My college roommate was from Sheldon and I asked him what exactly an "Orab" was. Proudly sporting his black and orange Sheldon High sweatshirt he replied, "Well, look at my shirt."

I didn't get it.

"Look at my shirt."

Still didn't get it.

Pointing the orange lettering he said "Ora-.."

Then to the black material, "...b!"

ORange And Black.

Now THAT is creative!!!!

Special mention goes to Everly High School (before they merged with another school and became Clay Central) who was known as the Cattlefeeders. In the old days, girls' teams were named by adding the suffix "-ettes" to the end of the boys' mascot name. So Everly's 1966 girls' state basketball champs were called the Cattlefeederettes. Gotta love it!

Is there really a team called the Nimrods in Minnesota? if there is that's awesome, I WANNA BE A NIMROD!

Ok. i used to think when i first moved to pratt that it was the lamest mascot ever. But i guess it grows on ya cause now im pretty proud of it. Somebody told me this story back in the day and i thought it was cool. If you ever wondered how we got the name Greenbacks, here it is.

back in the day( like 1930's) we were the indians and our colers were red and white. but then the football coach decided that he was tired of having the same mascot as almost all the teams he played. liberal, medicine lodge, lanerd, andale, the list goes on, and on, and on( its not really any supprise that the indian has won the most state titles... theres so freakin many of them) and many of them were red and white( probly two of the most common colers) so he changed the football jerseys to green. And shortly after that somebody started calling them the "greenbacks" in referance to there jerseys. also behind zerger football feild there used to be a creek. and on friday nights in the fall, frogs make alot of noise. it became the trademark for our team. So, the called us the fighting frogs. shortly after this the name was officially changed to the greenbacks and the mascot changed to a frog. causing us much greif from our fellow competitors and rivals. but thats ok, at least we are not like the countless other schools called the indians, or the cowboys, or other overly used mascotts.

I admit if ya can't laugh at yourself you can not laugh at anybody else. Yes, I can make fun of the Greenbacks, I am one! But in my time I was also a labette cardinal, fhsu tiger as a wrestler, I graduated from KSU so I am a wildcat too. As a coach I have been a indian, a bleujay, and a bluejay. It really doen't matter your highschool or your mascot all that matters is you support and love where your at!
After taking my first teaching/coaching postion I am offically a Sabetha Blue Jay as is my family.
Mr. Fairleigh great post I am glad someone knows the story besides me. We also have hot and cold water towers in Pratt. It is a strange town but one of the best to grow up in, miss it everyday.I hope someday when I am back in Pratt visiting my folks we can meet. I also grew up on another great place-a one-way street-the best playground in the world, Champa Street! Once again a weird name!
Coach Brown

I think the Augsville Auggies have the best mascot ever (not sure which state they are from). Some of guys from my school saw them at Fargo and nicknamed someone on our wrestling team Auggie. It stuck, and I seriously think some people actually forgot his real name! To this day I still have to catch myself from calling him Auggie when I see him!

Palco Roosters
Kensington Goldbugs

Couple of years ago I was driving through west Texas on a Friday night and turned on the radio and listened to some of the local football games. One town, I can't remember which one, was call the Sandies, short for sandstorm. Ever been through west texas? Seemed pretty appropriate to me.

I think that is one of the more creative mascots in the state. I remember we used to go to the Paola tournament, and Hickman Mills, Missouri was the Kewpis.

Don't forget about the Fowler GoldBugs, or the Ellis Rialroaders & Herington Railers (trian towns too), Bucklin Red Aces, Chapparrell Roadrunners, Eureka Tornadoes...

I know this isn't a mascot, but there was a school at the Bristow Oklahoma tournament from the town "Oolaga Talala Oklahoma".


The Salthawks are the best mascot in the history of mascots.

Neodesha & Highland are the Bluestreaks (this is a lightning bolt), and will someone tell me what a JR. Blue is from Washburn Rural.

Washburn University's Ichabods are pretty bad.

I've got a couple of good ones. When I got out of college, I got offered a job at Rocky Ford, CO. The Rocky Ford Meloneers. They wrestle and play basketball in the Melon Dome.

Another great one is a college that I think went bankrupt a few years ago in the middle of the fall semester and is no longer open. I cant remember what the P stood for in there name but they were the P(something) University Skunks. The PU Skunks!!!

Bonus points if you can tell me the mascot for Fairbury, Nebr. and what it stands for.

As much as I regret using the word basketball, you can find some pretty unusual teamnames at the NCAA Tournament. I remember the Catamounts and still, to this day, have not a clue what a Tar Heel is.

Of course, had I not grown up in Oklahoma, I'm sure the meaning of "Sooners" wouldn't have been so easy, either.

Go Caney Valley Bullpups!!!!!!

I'm not sure this is 100% accurate, but this is the word I've heard as I grew up, went to school there, and came back to teach at Washburn Rural.

Back in the day, Washburn High School was affiliated with Washburn University, which was named for a fella by the name of Ichabod Washburn (hence, the mascot of the university, a goofy guy in a top hat and coattails that is supposedly the image of Ichabod Washburn himself). Washburn High School was the Junior Ichabods - we still have that goofy little mascot with the top hat and coattails.

A little while after that, Washburn school district consolidated with the Auburn school district and became Auburn-Washburn. Somewhere in there, the high school changed its location from 19th and Hope in Topeka to 61st and Wanamaker (back then, it was pretty far in the boondocks, hence, the name "Washburn Rural"). The affiliation with the university ended and they changed the name from the Jr. Ichabods to the Jr. Blues, even though the guy looks the same.

Now we have an image (this one is pretty cool looking) of the Jr. Blue painted full-size on our wrestling mat... if you've seen it at our tournament or at one of our duals, it's pretty sweet looking!

Fairbuy Jeffs?

Fairbury is in Jefferson county and also there was a minor league baseball team of the same name in the 30's. Had a girlfriend from fairbury once, she was a lady jeff, that scared me a little bit until i was able to make sure what it meant

I graduated from Palco, home of the fighting roosters. I married a guy from Plainville, home of the Cardinals. I spent a lot of time partying in Hill City, home of the Ringnecks. We use to try to get Kensington for our homecoming games because they were the Goldbugs. (easy to make signs and floats). I don't know what is in the water in that part of the state.

Several replies to this I THINK West Elk is the only Patriots in Kansas, and Fairbury is the Jeffs, what is mean I have no idea. Second if you want to see some strange mascot names check this site out.
http://www.halcyon.com/marcs/mascotlist.html

one of my favorite names is the High School outside Indianapolis the Sparkplugs of Speedway, Indiana

Also I remember back in the 80's Friends Univ had on the side of Garvey Gym their intials and there were several complaints
it was like this down the building
Friends

University
of
Central

Kansas

CMSU. Home of the Mules and Jennies

Here are some from Texas that make you say WTF:

Kerrville Tivy Antlers
Rocksprings Angores
Robstown Cotton Pickers
Bryan St. Michael Academy Dragon Slayers
Farmersville Fightin' Farmers
Baytown Lee Ganders
Harlingen Marine Military Academy Leathernecks Cisco Loboes
Munday Moguls

Houston Morris Academy Praying Hands
Mason Punchers
Hamlin Pied Pipers
Bonham Purple Warriors

Universal City Randolph Ro-Hawks

We played South Park CO. in football (yes there really is such a School in the town of fairplay) they are the fighting Burrows.

Scottsdale Junior College in Scottsdale Arizona:

School colors: Lace & Pink
Mascot: The Fighting Artichokes

I KID YOU NOT!!!

This is what happens when the students of the late '60s were allowed to come up with and vote on the school colors and mascot. It was some sort of protest against the military-idustrial complex embodied by intercollegiate team sports--or something like that.

Trego Golden Eagles(purple&gold)
boring

That's an urban legend, it's not true!

Now its just Friends University(FU)

How about the Big Spring, Texas Steers?

At least that's what I assume their mascot is. It was on the town water tower. Surely it creates lots of opportunities for their opponents to get some digs in.

OK Rosemont University might take the cake they are the ROSEMONSTERS!

not an urban legend I grew up there and have a picture with my best friend standing outside garvey gym with it in the back ground you could see it as you drove by on the by pass

Ahhh! Very good Daniel-son. Fairbury is indeed the Jeffs or the Jeffmen as some like to be called. The Jeff comes from the old cartoon Mutt and Jeff.

Thanks coach moore-agi!

A school that had a similar problem like Friends university was Furman university in South Carolina.

They were called the Furman University Christian Knights.

Spell the initials out and you can see why they changed it.

Back in the 70's, there was a company making some money on shirts from the "Sam Houston Institute of Technology". Of course, no such institution existed but didn't stop them from making a profit.

Pretty sure there is a high school in Arizona with a mascot - the "Convicts" - no joke. Major employer in town is a state prison.

I once saw a picture of Arizona state champs and one was dressed in the white and gray striped garb sometimes found in a prison -so I asked why. Fella from Arizona showing me the picture, gave me the story.

Pretty unique.

Not as funny as the Sam Houston bit or the Friends story, but back in college one of our rivals was Mid-America Nazarene College, called MANC. I was told that a few years ago, they changed their name to Mid-America Nazarene University of Religious Education, its acronym spelling out MANURE. Just a little HAAC rivalry humor...

Never heard this and I held season tickets to Furman's Football team, A traditional NCAA 1AA power, and basketball team, still holds the record for most points by a player in a NCAA D1 game. Furman is known and has been known for as long as I can remember the Furman University Paladins. I don't know what they were known of as years ago, but seems like I would have heard of that after being there and being involved in their athletic program.

An interesting note is that their school president does lead a cheer at each football and basketball game. It goes, "F.U. 1x, F.U. 2X, F.U. 3x, F.U. all the time." I wish I was making that up but I promise I am not. One of the best places in the country to see a football game.

Nigel,
I take it you aren't a Notre Dame fan, since they have the same little man as Chapman does.

It was Phillips University in Enid, OK and yes they were the P.U. Skunks. I went to Adams Elementary right across the street from Phillips and we were the "Flying A's" It was literally a letter A with wings.

These are all from Nebraska
Minden Whippets (basically a greyhound)
Ord Chanticleers (it is some fighting chicken)
Gothenburg Sweedes (Sweedish people)

Interesting this should come up. I actually did my senior project this year on unusual college mascots. Weird, I know. About the Banana Slugs, that's actually UC Santa Cruz, not UC Santa Barbara. My personal favorite is Artie the Fighting Artichoke.

PMS---there are a few of them around here in Kansas.

To D. Fairleigh....sorry man, just gotta do it....you mentioned Lanerd....well the correct spelling is Larned. If your name was Ed....would you want to be called "Erd"? That was MY high school, so just had to correct ya...sorry!

My bad maniac. I am not the best speller/proof reader. So is it pernounced larned or larnerd? cause ive always called in larnerd

what about the Halfbreeds, Aniak (HS) AK

My hometown was Wahpeton, ND and we were the Wahpeton WOPS. They have since changed the name, it offended those with an Italian heritage.

If I remember right I think Beaver, Oklahoma had an unusual mascot. The Beaver Dusters.

BUUUUUUUUUUmp

That is one heck of a bump.

There were some interesting names at the cadet duals. I don't remember where they were from, but one team was the bad apples. There were some other good ones, but I don't remember them. The Swayz should be able to help me out.

the weirdest mascot would have to be the jalepenos

What are you getting at delight

Or the Neverland High School Chomos

i am getting at nothing that is the first word that popped into my head so i typed it.

Oolagah is a town and Talala is a town. Talala is not that far from oolagah and not big enough to have a school, so they ship those kids to Oolagah. My cousin just graduated from there. I'm guessin' that the Talala kids wanted to have their name included or somethin..

I was looking at going to Texas Christian University for college and their mascot is the "horned frog"...I can't say much because I might go there some day

We still have a home on Oologah and Nathan used to go to school there. Their nickname is The Mustangs.

Just looking through some old threads, and Bronco Wrestler, you got your wish. Plus your in Pratt, home of the Greenbacks. Who'd a thunk it 2 years ago?

Anyone that has a cougar as its mascot has the best mascot period.

Nobody had a better mascot than my old Junior College in Dallas...

The Richland Thunderducks! We were purple and green having a duck with a thunderbolt.

Ever notice how much a cougar and a panther look alike? I think they are like the same animal.

My High School was the Buccaners, and my college was the Blue Jays/Buccaners. Three pretty good mascots, except for that Blue Jay, he was kind of weird.

I like to follow these college teams now:
The Volunteers
The Golden Hurricane
The Buccaners
and The Purple Paladins

See if you can guess those schools

Herr Furches:
Wild and hairy guesses:
1)Volunteers - Tennessee
2)Golden Hurricane - San Diego
3)Buccaners - South Dakota or Maine
4)Purple Paladins - Deleware
PS: Sublette Larks Ho Ho Ho

golden hurricane=tulsa

got Tennessee Volunteers and Tulsa Golden Hurricane

The University of California-Santa Cruz Banana Slugs is the BEST

and the purple paladins are furman's mascot

Thunderducks is quite impressive along with the Banana Slugs.

Another one down

Here are some good ones

Pitt State - Gorillas only school in the nation with this mascot
Central Missouri - Mules and the women's sports have a different mascot the Jennies the School with two seperate mascots

The guy that drives the wrestling team at UCO had a son that died in a car crash a year or two ago. His son always wore a Watersmeet Nimrod shirt, and now he wears it to remember his son when he goes on wrestling trips.

Swayz-

Deleware is the Blue Hens. I know this because I watched their football team (which has identical uniforms to the University of Michigan for some reason) repeatedly stomp Hofstra...which has the glorious mascot of the "Pride."

Hofstra used to be the "Flying Dutchmen," but changed the mascot to be gender-inclusive when we added women's sports in the 1990s. Bah.

As far as high school mascots--I always thought that the "Lancers" and "Aces" accompanied by baby blue uniforms made for pretty fancy schools...

Gorillas is a great one but they are not the only school in the nation-maybe the only college- I know Soloman near Salina is also the gorillas

Amazing...

1.The Yuma Criminals
2. The Grays Harbor Chokers
3. Those Fighting Canaries of William Allen High School.

I think those three beat my Thunderducks of Richland College. My friend is a graduate of the Benson High School Bunnies. They have a fierce bunny on their helmet.

How about the Pleasant Hill, MO Roosters? Locals say this was chosen because of a large chicken hatchery in town.

Also, Savannah College of Art & Design Bees (although, I don't think they have any sports teams)

By the way, Lancer colors are Columbia Blue, black and white.

I'll straighten Swayz out on my Lancers. Now that we are ranked in the top 5 in 6A, there isn't a baby blue kid on the team!

Lancer proud!

Best One I ever saw wasn't a High School team, but an Amatuer Hockey Team - The Macon (Ga.) Whoopee! Their Mascot was a Whooping Crane! Seriously! Look it up! In the words of Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons (also home of a great mascot - The Springfield Isotopes) "Best. Mascot. Ever."

I am surprised no one has brought up the over used Trojans. Beloit, Hillsboro, Southeast of Saline, and Tescott just to name a few in our area. I believe that one of the Topeka schools is also the Trojans. Kids always get a chuckle when the Topeka Seaman plays a school with a Trojan mascot.

Best I ever heard of, is Hooker Oklahoma, Hooker Horny Toads

St. John's Military School Muleskinners
Pittsburg Dragons
Eureka Tornados
Rose Hill Rockets
