Favorite Mascot/Symbol

Besides your own, of course.

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.

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!

Of course I love our lion, but that wasn't our first mascot. The Adelpheans had two previous mascots before settling on our lion.

I also love Chi Omega's owl... Some days I wish I were a Chi Omega so I could buy all the cute owls I see when shopping!

I really do love DZ's turtle the best, but I freely admit to being biased!

I really like Chi Omega's owl - I always see lots of cute owl stuff. Also, ZTA's crown is really cool. I remember reading on here long ago how the sisters of one ZTA chapter had a "buzz phrase" they'd use whenever they were out and another sister wasn't acting like a lady. "Your crown is crooked." I thought that was cool

I really like the fleur de lis (and actually have quite a few of them as part of my living room design) and the turtle.

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.
