Bear claws – rawr!

—Richmond's mascot looks like a hastily assembled Halloween costume.
—Daredevil Spider-Man.
—Wonder if it rides a moped.

Last spring, the University of Richmond began re-designing its mascot, because "he didn't look like a spider, and he wasn't


intimidating."

Indeed, a spider should be more intimidating than an ant, mad or not.

Last month, the University asked people to vote for the face of Richmond's re-designed eight-legged mascot. The choices:

—I'm the baby, gotta love me!
—Only the first head fits a spider body, but it may be too intimidating.
—I vote for a spider centipede.


Where the snake mascots at?


Imagine this on a sideline.
