Notice the slurs they use to describe the hoity toity character. What would happen in today's day and age?

I wish that they had gone with the Hotty Toddy, because it looks ridiculous, but I really don't understand why they didn't go with the landshark, as that would have been kinda cool, unique, and had something to do with their football team. But no, they went with something completely generic and unrelated. If they wanted unrelated, they should have gone with Admiral Ackbar, like the students voted for.

RIP FratShark.

I think they are all 3 horrible and laughable. I think the shark would have been the most funny.

The grove attire is great. Has anyone actually seen the bear wearing Grove attire?

I remember that. I'd suggested that they'd change the name of Hotty Toddy to Grover back then.
