AXiD670 - If you ever head up to Ohio, I know it's common there. The girls from chapters in Ohio are the ones I always hear saying it.
I thought your mascot was named "Fuzzie Bear" or something like that?

Also, I went to school in MI and they didn't call themselves Fuzzies. Ohio is sort of a weird place, though! Sorry, I'm from MI, I have to make fun of Ohio! I think it's in our state constitution or something!!
