Students Spearhead Effort for Fighting Hawks Mascot


Recommended Posts

Posted

Watched the Hawk interact with fans last night at volleyball.  Kids absolutely LOVE him/her. ;) Saw a lot of "non-kids" smiling and interacting with it also.  There will always be the curmudgeons who don't like this sort of thing, but I think it's great.

Just curious how the reaction was from the REA crowd towards the mascot? They didn’t kill him did they?

He (using he because he doesn't have a name yet) was working the crowd pretty good. Did see one young girl run away from him, but seemed to be accepted by the crowd. The Ralph production crew bit their lip and put him on the big screen. Also noticed not near the SIOUX chants from the crowd as usual. Maybe the Hawk has a chance?

I don’t care what they name him, we will call him Mike.

I thought that we voted and the name is "Darell"

Correct.  His full name is "Downvote Darell".   They're adding a large down arrow to his costume soon.   :lol:   

Seems like calling the poor bird Darell is just downright mean, to the bird.

He would've looked a lot better in a Jersey than in that undershirt.

Agreed.  Maybe they are waiting until he gets an official name and then they can get him a football, basketball, and hockey jersey.  You see this all the time.  Hopefully they do the same here.

Can we get this to trend on social media so it becomes its actual name?

Great idea! Mascots are for kids.....and nothing screams kid friendly more, than a mascot named Mike Hawk.

Right, and they can put his name on the back of the Jersey then.
