25 Worst College Mascots

This made me giggle.

As an aside, I went to Michigan State, and Sparty, our mascot, is kick-a**, and has won lots of mascot competitions, so I may be a little biased.

Heeheehee. I kinda like the "Blue Blob" (but then again I'm odd that way).

Hahvahd's mascot is...truly disturbing.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

Hey, the mascot of my Alma Mater (the Phoenix) is on that list!

I have to say, it's a fairly crappy mascot. Unique, but crappy.

[XCashier]

You've got to wonder what some of these colleges are thinking. A saggy blue Cookie Monster clone? Yeah, I'm sure that'll rally the troops.

Frankly, I'm not sure I'd want to trust my higher education to a school that can't tell the difference between an ibis and a duck!

[RecoveringKinkoid]

That list was hilarious.

I'm not sure how "Cocky", our local mascot for the University of South Carolina missed this list. Probably because as a mascot, he doesn't look bad. It's a pretty nice suit. I'm sure most of the furrys out there would do him. However, c'mon. He's supposed to be a chicken. Named COCKY. Y'know, of "Can't lick our cocks" fame.

I swear I don't know how the cheerleaders keep their faces straight.

Oh my gosh, I had to stop reading that because I was laughing and didn't want to wake my husband up. He's getting Z's and I've been up since 6 with a migraine. Sigh. Night shift is hard, but we got laid off last night, so sleep and home, here I come!


Seriously, some of those were pretty bad, especially coming from such big name schools.

Ive been to a couple of Xaviers games and seen the blob there

I'm glad the WSU "WuShock" is in the top ten. I live near Wichita (and work there), and I've always hated that thing. It took me years to figure just what the heck it's supposed to be. When I was little, I thought Wichita State was called the Shockers, like for electricity and lightning. But alas, they mean shockers as in "those who shock wheat." Oh yeah, that's powerful

[Dreamstalker]

Right...how many people do they think will know that?

(I thought it was electricity too, and was "wtf is that thing? A capacitor with hair?"

I showed Providence College's to mom and she almost fell over laughing.

That had to be the most pathetic phoenix I have ever seen.

For crying out loud, he looks like a neutered bald eagle who got spray-painted.

Isn't it though?

It's as if the university decided to have the Phoenix for its mascot without knowing what one looked like, so they came up with something looking like a Warner Brothers reject.

And its name is Phlash. How creative. I think I will replace all my F's with PH's, just because it looks like a phunny thing phor me to do. Just kind oph phucking around, you know?

[Caveat Emptor]

Wow. Some of that had me gasping for air. I was almost doubled over from laughing so hard. I'm glad I wasn't drinking, or I would have seriously violated Rule #1.

[Ringtail Z28]

That blue blob thing kinda reminds me of the Creeping Terror.

It sounds like something that a number of the tourist-targeted inns up in Maine (and probably other areas as well) tend to adore so much...replacing all C's with K's ("Kozy Kabins", etc). Supposed to sound cute (sorry, "kute") or something like that.

WTF is "Riptide" supposed to be anyway? Wile E. on crack!?

Boy am I glad I went to a University (USD) who's mascot was a coyote. Hold still while I naw on your leg.
