To those that did not or have not attended a college with a mascot, what was your high school Mascot?
It seems that most people identify with their undergraduate school more for a multitude of reasons (out of the house, on your own, sex, parties, etc).
I recently joined my undergrad alumni out of nostalgia for them days and I realized that when I was a student, I thought that our school mascot was silly, but now that I been 8 years removed, I think its great and cant see any other mascot replacing it.
My undergrad school: UCSC
Mascot: Banana Slugs

At Western Michigan University being the "Broncos", we had "Buster" as a mascot.
Here he is on a park bench:
And here he is ice skating:

Yes, that's right. We are the Gustavus Adolphus College "Gusties."
Someone should smack the guy who came up with that... oh but we have lion thingy named "Gus" that kinda serves as a mascot.

Neither my High School nor my University had mascots.
That's art school for you.

On Wisconsin! I had a Bucky Badger as a kid. So cool.
mine: Princeton Tiger
The University briefly had a live tiger mascot when the
father of football player Albert Howard ’25 brought a tiger
he captured in India here in 1923.

ASU, being from the West, I thought of Arizona too.

What could be more inspiring and enthusastic than a god-damned pine tree? According to Uncle Skeleton, nothing, that's what.

Which undergrad school? Counting community colleges, I went to seven schools in getting my BS (being in the Air Force, I moved around a lot.
Ok, in reverse chronological order:
University of Southern Mississippi-Golden Eagles
The Florida State University-Seminoles
Eastern Michigan University-Eagles
I also attended Austin Community College, The Community College of the Air Force (the largest community college there is), Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, and Panama Canal College (a Department of Defense Education Activity-as in dependent schools-community college). I'm pretty sure some of them had athletics, but I was always too busy to notice.
EditI know I was supposed to post pictures, but I just can't find any right now...It's frustrating.

Stanford's tree was a helluva funny guy, at least back in 89. He was the perfect accomplice to the antics and badass tunes of the one, the only, the incomparable, Leland Stanford Junior University marching Band.
