Has anyone heard anything about it?

Is there even going to be one this year?

Will we be getting new mascots at this one?

Can they be any more gay that Pig 1 and Pig 2?

That is all...

They're supposed to be updating the look of the horepigs, so they don't look as horsepiggish. God only knows what that means. I heard Denver's mascot was an inspiration, which would make them looking something like horsepigdolphins. Ugh.

Thus making Thunderbird, for a moment, not so muddy.

I've heard we're dropping the horses altogether for a dude in a trenchcoat with a double-barrel 12 gauge and a land stake.

As I posted before, I did a search for horse mascots, and discovered that there is no such thing as a good horse mascot costume. They all look either gay (NTTAWWT), like an alligator, or like a pig. Or like a man-bear-pig, if classified by Al Gore on South Park.

Just look at these collection (pic is big, so I'm just linking it):
Bad, bad, BAD costumes (http://www.akrondesign.com/Mascots/marylens/horses1.jpg)

1509 and 1511 are the best of a bad bunch.

the student paper and student flyers have printed the event starting at 6:30 p.m. Like always, I suggest ignoring these :D
