What was your highschool mascot?

Contributor: Always Ready Always Ready
My high school mascot was the Trojan *insert condom joke here* We had a few schools in our league who thought it funny to throw condoms both wrapped and unwrapped at our team during sporting events. We became very adept at shooting them back at them (ala rubber bands). You'd be surprised at how far a well aimed condom can fly. The icing on the cake was our high school was on Butts Rd.

I was a Timber Wolf and a River Hawk in college.

You?
Mine was a very socially unacceptable warrior indian (their words not mine). However, my (then) boyfriend's mascot was the trojan, which was of infinite entertainment to me given that I gave my virginity to him.

First high school had a dragon (I'm not kidding). Stranahan High Dragons - blue and orange. We had the most kickass mascot in south Florida ... and an incredibly mediocre team.

Second high school ... I don't remember. I think it was a gang member (that's all I remember about that high school; okay, it may have been a pirate). The deans had difficultly telling the difference between 'school spirit' colors and 'gang' colors.

Third high school was a lousy bulldog (colors were green and white). We had a paper mache bulldog in the library that all the seniors signed (repainted every year). Mulder and I snagged the neck area by drawing a collar and writing the name 'Yucamere' on the collar. That became the mascot's name forever afterward.

College? Damned if I know. I think it was a rocket or a spartan or a spartan riding a rocket.

EDIT: I looked it up, and my mind WAS in the right direction - they're called the Titans, and it was indeed a rocket. (Which tells you how close my college is to NASA.)

We were the Trojans. The class of 1999 was the last year to get Senior shirts. They made shirts that said "99.9% effective" with a picture of a Trojan on the front and on the back they said "The best graduation cap."

LOL Florida redneck high school. 'Yucamere' came from Mulder's girlfriend shouting down the hall at us 'YOU CA'MERE!' (You come here.)

My high school had the WORST mascot... The Cannerman. As in food canning (apple orchards & processing factories). The Cannerman was a poorly drawn shirtless muscle man (as in Musselman's applesauce, applejuice, etc). If I cared I would be embarrassed.

Ahhh. I was wondering if it was some reference he hadn't explained to me yet, but that makes sense. (And I've heard it here)

Reading these gave me a few laughs!


My high school mascot was another clear winner: Monarchs.
...seeing the error of naming the mascot after a flippin' butterfly, they pretended that CLEARLY they meant a lion when they said monarch.

....
.....



and then in college, it was a Don.
no one understands it, until you point at the picture and it looks sorta like Zorro. so i always just said "yeah, our mascot is zorro."

Spartans and Blue Devils. In middle school we were the Eagles. Why a middle school needed a mascot, I've not the foggiest clue.
