The mascot seems to be reversed. The photo looks like the little ball part is green and the stem is brown.

^This thing^ is supposed to be a dUck?
It looks like something else to me.
IT is not a DUCK quack quack quack - feathered water fowl
it is a GEODUCK (pronounced gooey-duck) it is a relative of the clam.
If you think the mascot looks like 'something else'
well...Here is what a real Geoduck looks like...
Bonus: They weigh on average 5 lbs...but can get up to 15lbs.
..and yes, this is on the list of stuff you can NOT get me drunk enough to eat.

The Food Network had an episode of The Great Food Truck Race in which the contestants had to create and sell geoduck specialties.CameronBornAndBred wrote:Dirty Jobs did an episode with geoduck harvesting.

Why, oh why, would any school pick that thing as a mascot?
(Although I think if we'd had one of our girls dress up in this costume, Aycock would have won a lifetime supply of spirit kegs.)

Just spit water all over my keyboard. Go Nads!
Saying that, the fight song for the Geoducks is pretty funny, too.

Nope. Unlike RISD, we didn't play sports. (Which is why I could remain a guilt free Duke fan at college.)lawgrad91 wrote:CB&B, did Corcoran have a mascot?CameronBornAndBred wrote:And Stanford has a fckn tree! P.S....Scrotie scares me. Damn art students!windsor wrote:

Re: Patent Office Revokes Redskins Trademarks...
I saw the pickles listed...which means that two schools from NC made the list. (Campbell Camels was the other one.)
