Favorite Mascot/Symbol
 
Besides your own, of course.

i actually don't know that much about all the GLO's masacots...
AZD's is Bet-Xi Bear....my chapter just used the teddy bear and grateful dead bears locally.

Ours is Charlie -- a stuffed snake. The Alpha Xi Deltas keep stealing him though... No idea where he currently resides... He was with someone in Texas for a while..

Not my mascot but I really like the Sooner Schooner. So unique in football traditions... If you're not aware of what that is, it's a mini wagon drawn by two miniature horses that runs around the field when Oklahom scores a touchdown.

I like the Pike's fire truck.

Hmm, I wonder if I can recall that many of them.
Okay, maybe its not a "mascot," but I love the Theta Kite symbol. I also read on GC that Walt Disney had "Let's Go Fly A Kite" written in honor of his Theta wife and daughters, which I think is the sweetest thing ever. (I love Mary Poppins--huge Julie Andrews fan-and I love that song.)
I think the Tri-Delt dolpin is very original.
I think it's great that both Phi Mu and ADPi have Lions as mascots since were founded at the same school within a year of each other!

Delta Phi Epsilon's mascot is the unicorn, and I think that's nifty.
I also like the Pi Beta Phi's mascot, the angel.
I like Sigma Gamma Rho's mascot, the poodle.

As far as symbols, I like Delta Gamma's (the anchor), Alpha Chi Omega's (the lyre), Phi Sigma Sigma's (the Sphinx), and Pi Beta Phi's (the arrow).

I suppose you'd call it a symbol moreso than a mascot, but AKA/APhi's use of the Ivy leaf.

Is it Gamma Phi Beta who uses the palm tree?

I like Theta Phi Alpha's penguin!
A few other favorites is Delta Delta Delta's dolphin, Alpha Epsilon Phi's giraffe, Chi Omega's Owl and lion of Phi Mu and Alpha Delta Pi.

Here are a few mascots and why I like them:

- Alpha Delta Pi and Phi Mu: I like the lion because I am a big Narnia fan.
- Alpha Epsilon Phi: I like their reason for choosing the giraffe. I was given a giraffe puppet at work for my outreaches.
- Alpha Omicron Pi: The panda is quite nifty.
- Alpha Xi Delta: BetXi Bear has a really pretty dress
- Chi Omega and Kappa Kappa Gamma: Owls are the symbol of wisdom.
- Delta Gamma: I like the concept of the Hannah doll
- Delta Delta Delta: Dolphins are totally awesome
- Delta Phi Epsilon: Wow, an unicorn. I wonder why they chose a fantasy animal.
- Delta Zeta: I think the turtle is totally cute and very original.
- Pi Beta Phi: I like angels. I like wings.
- Sigma Kappa: Can't help but love the dove- it's what my family name means.
- Theta Phi Alpha: The penguin is the favorite animal of one of my best friends; so when I see penguins, I automatically think of her.

I don't think GPhiB does, but ASA does.:)

i like dg's anchor and phi sigma sigma's sphinx-you can't get much more mysterious than a sphinx!!

MaryAmanda 06-29-2006 09:20 AM

I'm a fan of Tri-Delt's dolphin, AOPi's panda, and Chi Omega's owl.

OPhiA's mascot is Raggedy Ann, whom we call "Ophia" (pronounced oh-fee-uh). Which is cute, but...animals are much easier, both to buy stuff of and draw (it's awfully hard to draw one while chalking!).

In my local chapter, each family has its own mascot too, which makes buying gifts for littles easier. We have Theta Frogs (my family), Delta Ducks, Xi Tigers, Omega Ladybugs, and Rho Cows. :)

I love Theta Phi Alpha's penguin, Tri Delta's dolphin, Kappa's fleur de lis, and Sigma Kappa/Zeta Phi Beta's dove. And, of course, Delta Upsilon's, duck.
