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.)

Bucky the Badger would tear the crap out of whatever mascot you have at your community college. Or maybe you are a gopher fan. Ok, Goldy has a tail. Gophers don't have big visible tails. And gophers are pussies. I saw a gopher getting his ass kicked by a crow.

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.

You all know the real purpose of the mascots. When the stupid americans get drunk and rowdy, the mascots work much like a rodeo clown would, rounding them up into the drunk tank.

It's just most of the kids and press are gone by the time they get ot that part of their job.

Besides. Youppi would kick all their asses before he even gets up in the morning, fools!

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.
