28 Shitty College Mascots That Are STILL Better Than A Poisonous Tree Nut
Do me a favor real quick. Take your right index and middle finger and press it about an inch below your jawline under your ear. Can you feel a pulse? You can?! Awesome! Then you hate Ohio State University.
While there are quite literally thousands of reasons to hate #AnOhioStateUniversity, we're choosing to spend this article focusing on Ohio State's mascot, the Buckeyes. According to Yahoo Answers, a buckeye is a steaming, wrinkly scrotum poisonous tree nut. Let's take a look at some other college mascots that are unthinkably lame but still somehow better than Ohio State's pathetic fucking flora.
