My memories of Blue were during the Matt Howard era during the basketball seasons. I started many an evening at Hinkle watching Blue during the introductions before the game. He seemed to really love his job as mascot, and it was obvious he loved his reward at the end of the introductions. I could see many a smile in the stands as he raced to the other end of the floor for his giant chew bone! He will be missed. Thanks for the memories and the smiles, Blue.
