Yeah, we are turkeys! "The Turkey Capital of the World." (unofficially--we have to race for it each year against Worthington, Minnesota in The Great Gobbler Gallop, but we've had our Turkey Trots since 1912 and they copied us.) :wink: :)

For 31 years I was a Crain Comet...another Mean Green campus.

One year I was a :pirate: Pirate :wench: in Jr College.
Then a Bobcat for 3 years.
Then a Cougar in grad school.

There is a school near here with that name. Might be the same one.
Not unless Ocean City, NJ moved next to Plainville, CT. [smilie=sillyjester.gif] I've found lots of Blue Devils across the country.
Is there some reason the devils might be blue??
They were sad? Lol :lol:

No actually Farmingdale, I think there are a bunch of Aggies out there, Texas A&M are also Aggies I believe. Farmingdale used to be a Agricultural Tech college before they stopped that curriculum and went more mainsteam.

(Isn't Duke University Blue Devils?)

Our high school was the DHHS Tigers. Not very original, but, on the other hand, not wierd!

Some wierd ones are the Goslings of Watertown HS in Wisconsin, and the Anteaters of the University of California Irvine, at Irvine CA.

By the way, Blue Devils here are historic demons dating to the 1800s Carnival characters, particular to the northern range mountain villages such as Paramin, and still kind of scary to encounter -- they are a part of the mythology of Carnival and Mardi Gras type celebrations dating as far back as the 1600s in Europe... not sure how that might apply to USA sport teams
Ran into a bunch of them on Carnival Tuesday on Carlos Street... they admired Jimmy's dreads wig and let us pass.....
"Oh, oh, all I want to know, is are you kind?"

Speaking of unordinary school mascots..

Hutto Hippos

I think the story goes that long ago a hippo escaped from the traveling circus and ran amuk in Hutto, Texas and they adopted the Hippo as the town symbol.

Ok, here's a photo I found with a Hutto Hippo...says the hippo escaped from a train.

A "fightin gobbler" is probably a good match for a "hustlin' hippo." :) :D

Elon University is the Phoenix too! However, I went to school there when it was Elon College and we were the Fighting Christians. :roll:
UWGB chose Phoenix after a student body vote in 1970.... they could have been the fighting tomatoes...... yay.
