Cy the Cyclone Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Yep...opened up the home page for MSN and right there in front of me Top 10 Best College Mascots/Top 10 Worst College Mascots Guess which column Lil Red ended up in.... Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I'm gonna say he was in the best column. I mean look at him, he's all blimp-like and then he does that herky jerky thing while standing on his head... who am I kidding? Lil Red sucks. Quote Link to comment

GSG Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 No, Trix is for kids. Lil Red is for popping with a crochet needle. Quote Link to comment
hskerprid Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Lil Red is GREAT!!!!! Come on, He's for the kids for craps sake! The little "skers" need entertainment too! Quote Link to comment
np_husker Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/pgStory?conte...p;photo=8652360 Although in my opinion Herbie is actually our mascot, not Lil' Red. Lil' Red is more sideline entertainment, not a mascot. Quote Link to comment

Lil' Red is more sideline entertainment, not a mascot. Actually, Lil Red is the official mascot. Herbie was banished until a couple of years ago, when he was brought back only by popular demand. Like the red Fairbury Franks in the stands. Lil Red is for the kids? Oh, come on...what is the percentage of preschool kids in the stadium? Even normal 8 year olds think he is a flamer.

Actually you are both wrong. Herbie is our old mascot, he was given a makeover a few years ago to the current "buff" version and renamed Harry Husker. Harry Husker is the official mascot. Lil' Red is a secondary mascot intended for kids. Quote Link to comment

Even normal 8 year olds think he is a flamer. um... you realize that mascot's do more than go to football games, correct? and if you have never been to a different sporting event, you should really go and see the interaction that there is between Lil' Red and kids.... another example for those that don't buy it... if you live in lincoln, look at the transformation of Homer, the Saltdogs mascot this past year! he went from this scary tough lookin dog, to a soft, friendly version.. KID FRIENDLY. IMO mascots are for kids. I couldn't care less what a mascot looks like.. it doesn't change our team. It's an easy way for kids to associate with a team. _ and on a side note... Lil' Red doesn't even COMPARE in creepiness to Texas Tech's mascot.... Quote Link to comment
