Arizona’s Top 5 Mascots

As the fire blazes on, the Phoenix Suns mascot prepares for his brave slam dunk jump thru a smokin' hot ring. No, it's not a ferocious tiger mascot jumping that ring, it's none other than Go the Gorilla. Fans go crazy and it's common knowledge why. The Suns mascot is an example of the most brave, most entertaining and highly charitable mascots in the state. Word has it this Phoenix Suns mascot was born from a singing telegram sent to the arena back in 1980. The fans liked him so much, the Suns made a decision to adopt the hairy fellow. Go is still heating the stadium to this day.

Although Arizona was disappointed at first at Baxter's arrival to the Diamondbacks, they quickly grew to like the gigantic loveable Bobcat. The good folks of Arizona thought it only fitting a snake should represent the team name, but Baxter has shown them otherwise. If you put a lion and tiger mascot together, you'd know what D. Baxter looks like. His complete name, D. Baxter fits completely with the teams own nickname, Dbacks. If you have ever had the perquisite of attending one of the Diamondbacks games at Chase Field, you'll see Baxter out there livening up the stadium and inspiring his favourite team. What's better than a tiger mascot? D. Baxter the Bobcat.

Who doesn't love the Arizona Cardinals? After just about winning the Superbowl in 2009, everybody has their eyes on this little desert team. That big red bird you see strutting round the field is the team's fave winged creature. Huge Red just celebrated his 10th birthday as the official Cardinals mascot. Like the life of a bobcat or tiger mascot, Big Red spends his off days doing charitable work with the tutorial system, infirmaries, and other events. He's high energy and always prepared to help his team make it to the finals. What a guy!

When you mention Arizona's top mascots, that group had better include Sparky. Arizona State Varsities mascot is red hot and energetic as they come. There is not a lion or tiger mascot out there that Sparky can't keep up with. You can regularly see Sparky doing back flips, push-ups, handsprings, and masses more at each game. The crowd goes fully bonkers for Sparky and ESPN even rated him one of the nation's best mascots.

Last but certainly no where close to least, is a mascot who calls Flagstaff his home. Louie the Lumberjack was made in honor of many lumberjacks that used to dot Arizona's land. The handsome tree covered mountains of Flagstaff provided a perfect haven for these hard working fellows. Northern Arizona University is happy to represent the land and their heritage with Louie. Whether your state has an eagle, bulldog or tiger mascot, hopefully they can keep up with the smokin' hot mascot state of Arizona.
