As the official mascot of Butler University, it’s only natural that I’m all-things Butler. As mascot, I’m a spokesdoggy, face, greeter, host, personality, leader and just all around ambassador for the university. Well, that’s how things started at least. Now, nearly eight years and two NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Fours later, I’ve added to my title and responsibilities as Butler’s Mascot,…

Clothes Make the Dawg
It was the famous author and humorist, Mark Twain who once said, “Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.” I suppose the same could be said for a dog, after all, a flea-bitten fur ball is a dime a dozen, but throw on some threads on the mangiest of mutts and much of society will swoon.
So was the case on two occasions this past November which required my…
‘Anna Sun’ – Walk the Moon
The latest installment of “Blue 2unes” takes us just next door, down I-74 and to the Buckeye State’s city on the river, Cincinnati, Ohio. Think Cincinnati and the brain conjures up images of Skyline Chilli, Charlie Hustle, WKRP, Kings Island, the former Mr. Jessica Simpson, Montgomery Inn, the Ickey Shuffle, and maybe even Chris Sabo’s Rec Specs. Well, prepare to add Walk the Moon to that list…
The Butler ‘Alma Mater’ – Twitter Contest
Premise & Parameters
After several big Butler events over the last month or so, I must say that I have come away amazed at how many of my fellow Bulldogs do not seem to actually know the words to Butler’s “Alma Mater” by Fred W. Wolfe ’16. Rather than just belly-ache about the observation, I want to encourage the campus community to learn the lyrics. Thus, I give to you the Butler…
‘Hi, I’m Blue II and I’ll be Your Tour Guide’
It seems that in addition to “official mascot” I might need to add “tour guide” to my job description because I sure have been giving quite a few tours lately. Don’t tell the Butler University Office of Admission though because I kind of like just taking naps all day and with their tour schedule, my poor paws would be worn thin!
So why the tours, you ask? Well, for special occasions, of…
‘Bluetiful!’
As I continue to reflect on last weekend’s Butler University Bulldog Contest, I can’t help but think about just how cool it was to see 117 of us bullies in one place.
After all, we are a special breed that takes special care and attention.
Of course, I’ve been the recipient of a lot of love and I’ve had many a day in the sun, so it was cool to see the other bulldogs get a shot at glory. Not to…
Beauty and the Bulldogs
Bulldog Beauty Contest Highlights Beautiful Butler Homecoming
Another homecoming weekend has come and gone at Butler University and if there could be one word to describe it all, “beautiful” certainly comes to mind.
It truly was beautiful; all of it from the weather, to the campus, the people, the tailgate, the facilities, the parade, the school spirit, and of course, all 117 bulldogs and…
