I hope this doesn't make higher-ups at UNT decide to keep that awful Scrappy.

I couldn't agree more.  Proud of this achievement but this has to be the ugliest Scrappy we have ever had.  The previous Scrappy looked a lot better. The head is too flat our something

Will @Green P1 now recognize the greatness of Eugene Levy Scrappy by displaying picture of Scrappy on his desk?  Scrappy did promise to build a wall between Denton and San Antonio and make those dirty nUTSAks pay for it.

It's the eyes.  This is the best scrappy

Congratulations to Eugene Levy.

Only because Eppy wasn't named Scrappy.  Eppy is special to many of us, but I don't think it was for his looks.

I have grown to like E.L. Scrappy.

I can't found a good pic, but this was the best Scrappy (minus the sunglasses in this pic).

That suit was hand made and worn by Talon Myles Alfonso, then later by yours truly.  It wasn't the most attractive suit but it was the least cumbersome, which allowed us to be extremely physical and entertaining.  

Thats extremely important considering "ENTERTAINMENT" is the main reason for having a mascot at all.

When I first transferred to NT in about 84/85 or so, my assigned dorm roommate also wore the Eppy suit.   When I first opened the closet door, this "bird" costume fell out and I remember thinking "what the hell ?".    LOL.   I knew nothing about NT sports at the time or their mascot.

I have always wondered , do people rotate being Eppy or Scrappy during the season ? Or, are you the mascot for the entire season  ?

Both.  Some times it's the same person.  Other times more than one wears it due to scheduling or availability.

Back in the late 1980s, Eppy was beaten up by an irate fan and suffered a broken leg after one of Corky's teams upset K-State.  Eppy was more scrappy than Scrappy.
