Seeing as I take credit for inventing the Bluteaux concept (but not the execution), I will never admit that he was worse...

That Billiken is better than the Grover looking thing we had running around.

The Bluteaux Concept would be a great name for a Marquette Band.

I think people universally expect too much from mascots. They all look dopey and weird.

The two tone face is a bizarre choice. Otherwise, it seems a normal mascot to me.

Maybe we should ask our resident mascot expert Tall Titan, that is, if he is not in the middle of his 4 hour commute.

The SLU mascot looks like the DePaul Blue Demon with a bad case of food poisoning.

It looks like the old Billiken had a four-way with Braveheart, Popeye and Kermit the Frog.
