Seymour Seaduck?!?!?  Us State fans up in Joe Louis sec 108 always
thought he was the
Blue Loon!(-:  Whichever, I'm sorry to hear he got pushed.  I don't
remember it
happening---what game/series was it?
 
On a more amusing mascot note, does anyone else remember the GLI (several
years ago)
when the Michigan Tech Huskie pretended to 'relieve' himself on another
teams mascot
between periods?  Lest I be thought horribly evil, I should explain that
it appeared to
be coordinated by _both_ mascots since the opposing mascot was lying on
the ice, and
the incident brought a roar from everyone who saw it.

P.S.  I like 'Big Red' for Miami since they're already called that a lot
anyway, and, is
anyone else going to be at the Joe tonight and tomorrow for the UM/LSSU
and UM/MSU
games?
