But you're correct that it's officially called red. It's still closer to auburn than green is.
That's easy. All colors are closer to red than green.Vrede too wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 2:08 pmIt depends on the pic.But you're correct that it's officially called red. It's still closer to auburn than green is.
I'm not sure about the NCAA. I thought I remembered that Boise State trademarked non-green.
No matter, it's all just winding you up, anyhow. I wish you Boise State's success.
Whose eagle. The red field eagle or the hockey mask?O Really wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 7:00 pmThe eagle is obviously a blatant cultural misappropriation of Northwestern indigenous art.

The "Gator" eagle, above, and the hockey mask, at least according to the indigenous artists who are likely unhappy they didn't get paid for something that looked similar to some of their art but not close enough for a copyright infringement.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 7:54 pmWhose eagle.

I didn't think you meant Auburn, but had to check. Our eagle is depicted realistically and our tiger(2) are a cartoon of our own making - Aubie and retro Aubie from long before is making a comeback.O Really wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 9:10 pmThe "Gator" eagle, above, and the hockey mask, at least according to the indigenous artists who are likely unhappy they didn't get paid for something that looked similar to some of their art but not close enough for a copyright infringement.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 7:54 pmWhose eagle.

He's been gaining popularity over the last few years but has always been around. I think the new name "retro" Aubie increased his popularity. College kids want to be Retro - don't they?
According to some arbitrary made-up list of "25 most popular mascots," Bucky is #12 and Aubie is #11. But the list has to be a total set-up rigged fake because the clearly best mascot ever (Chief Osceloa) is only #7. EDIT: And because the Colorado buffalo is not even on the list.billy.pilgrim wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 9:04 amWas bucky selected to compete?
AUBIE WINS NUMBER 9
On Friday, January 15, Aubie was named the Mascot National Champion at the 2016 UCA Cheer and Dance competition at the ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Florida. Aubie competed in the Division 1A Mascot group along with ten other mascots who were invited to compete based on scores from a highlight video submitted in November. On Friday night Aubie performed a 90 second skit that, combined with the score from his video, won him his ninth national title.
The 1st minute is a little lame, but the rest is a little of what he does, including running around the field in full costume with a huge flag after a touchdown.

funny article and videoThe statue's nose is polished by passers-by that have rubbed it for good luck. Around finals week, students start giving offerings to Testudo in the hope of good grades. In 2013, the Testudo statue caught fire because of an ill-advised mixture of offerings and a lit candle. Local news channels reported about this event and it trended on Twitter.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, campus guidelines included instructions to not rub the statue's nose unless using disinfectant wipes before and after to clean it.
