  • Helloooo?! You pick practically every other mascot in my entire state but left out the Merrill Bluejays! lol represent for sure.

  • I can speak for all of us who live in/near Blaine when I say "Borderites" is the crappiest nickname ever. They use the fucking Peace Arch as their mascot! Way to drive fear into the hearts of their opponents.

  • Ah, my sister is a minuteman.

    And my mom boasts that she used to be a Beaver. 8-|

  • @musicofthemoment - 

    Oh no, I didn't include every school in Wisconsin. My high school nicknames were rather mundane. The first was Rams and the second is Knights. I actually wonder if I could find every high school in Wisconsin and their nicknames.

  • @Shy___Away - 

    Wow...that really sucks. I would be afraid to be a coach there and yell about taking out the other team and then have to be reminded of the peace arch.

  • @beachblondie711 - 

    The Beavers...there is a high school near me that has Beavers for a nickname. Well I was driving through a town that was playing the Beavers for homecoming and I saw a float in the high school parking lot that said "Let's Eat Us Some Beavers"

  • Representing Ohio =p

    New Philly- they have a nice mall, but they obviously lack intelligence with the "Fighting Quakers" nonsense.

    Fredricktown Freddies is... special.

    I was a Louisville Leopard. And yes, we pronounce the 'S' in LouiSville. I think it's proposterous not to.
    Now I'm a Kent State University Golden Flash. Pretty fiesty, right? Well, when it comes down to it, our students fight the National Guard over Vietnam. So I guess that makes us 'flash'y.

  • Rice Birds?  Lambkins? I'm surprised other teams don't kick their asses before the game in the parking lot.

  • Lol, some of these are seriously ridiculous. I guess there is nothing of that nature in Delaware.

  • @twistedmistletoe - 

    Wow, I never expected to have people that went to the schools on this list. Oh wait I read that wrong, sorry. The Golden Flashes make all these lists of the worst college nicknames. That is a pretty interesting theory as to how they got that nickname. Have they always been the Golden Flashes? Because Marquette is now the Golden Eagles. They used to be the Warriors but the directors felt that it was demeaning to the Native Americans so they changed it to Gold and then Golden Eagles. I only know that because I was looking at trying to get into their school of theology.

  • @jacksoncroons - 

    It reminds me of an old Saturday Night Live sketch where they decided to change the nickname and they finally ended up with the Flaming Folding Chairs. I am thinking of the nicknames of schools I played against. As I mentioned above I lost to the Ledgers in the state football championship game. My first high school we played a school that was known as the Zephyrs and the mascot was a train. My second high school I played against a team that that was called the Redmen which I always took great pride in beating because of my ethnicity. The towns that formed that school were Galesville, Etrick, and Trempeleau so when the local papers or tv stations had them on the air it always said GET High. Someone tipped them off and now it is always G-E-T. It was always fun to see the football schedule come out and see when we had GET High. I'm a sad man that I remember all of this.

  • @TiRocKiinPiinK - 

    Well there was one school listed in Delaware however I didn't find it that out of the ordinary.

  • I liked the Appleknockers.  I wonder what their cheerleader outfits were like.  Maybe they had a motto like "Knockers - Juicy to the Core"?  or "Salivate - then Bite"?  "Don't Squeeze the Knockers"? 

  • @curiousdwk - 

    I like the first motto. I bet their cheerleader uniforms were better than the uniforms my school's cheerleaders wore. Skirts below the knees and long sleeve sweaters. Yeah...apparently showing skin is sinful just like that school didn't have school dances until my sophomore year in 95/96 because they were worried that dancing might lead to sex. Guess that brings up the old joke: Why don't Christians have sex standing up? It may lead to dancing.

  • NC School is like rrrriiiiiight by campus. haha. how queer. unicorns. yeah i said it.
