The 21 most nightmare fueling mascots in college athletics

Lil’ Red is like Oski, the bear from Cal, in human form. His innocent expression is frightening. Walking down a damp hallway with the lights flickering, I’d almost rather see any of the scarier mascots on this list than Lil’ Red, singing quietly to himself.
In a way, he kind of resembles the Stay Puft Marshmallow man, who everyone knows was the most terrifying villain of the 1980s.
Keep the steroids away from Lil’ Red, and we should be safe in real life. However, don’t watch this man dance before going to bed, or he and his juvenile smile will be coming for you as you drift off to sleep.
