Seems fair. Mind you, I had to look it up because I was thinking the JimmyV Foundation, but I see no problems with the legitimacy of that vote.

Honestly I think the Black bear is worst than colonel Reb.
If the university is trying to create a mascot to get rid of race issues, why would they choose ANYTHING with the word BLACK in it? I think that was a horrible PR move by OM. Plus some of my freinds who go to school there say Colonel Reb was biased off a black man.

I see Smokey is in the Hall. It looks like only Aubie and Smokey are in, so I guess that answers the question.........and this thread should be locked. The end.

I've heard talk of them possibly getting rid of the black bear within a couple years. Serious talk

Has anyone pointed out that Aubie is in prison garb? Granted, he has no pants to go along with the shirt, but that's probably part of what landed him in prison garb in the first place.
That's a French sailing shirt, to go with the Eiffel tower and the "Geaux home" sign.

When it has people -- and spelling and garish website design -- like this, I feel certain tremulous doubts about the sagacity of this organization:
"Reggy Funfurhugin
Special Assisstant to the Assisstant of Stuff"

Aubie was inducted with the blue chicken from Delaware.
Thread not over. Hall is shite.

Spot on!!!
And I'm still waiting on a reason why Colonel Reb is racist. Did he write something racist? Did he take a racist picture? The mascot wore a jersey, shorts, and hat for crying out loud.

Even more serious question -- what exactly are the criteria for being in the mascot HOF? And who votes them in?
Aubie, Auburn University’s lovable Tiger mascot, will be inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame on Tuesday, Aug. 15, at Love Park in Philadelphia, Pa.
Aubie will join the University of Delaware’s YoUDee and the University of Wisconsin’s Bucky the Badger as the first collegiate mascots inducted into the Hall.
The 2006 Mascot Hall of Fame induction class was chosen through a combination of fan voting and voting by the Hall’s executive committee. Fan voting accounted for 5 percent of the total and the executive committee’s votes 95 percent.
The 2006 class also includes professional mascots KC Wolf (Kansas City Chiefs), Clutch (Houston Rockets) and Jazz Bear (Utah Jazz).

That is our real mascot. I'm still trying to figure out what is so damn racist about it.
