[post_page_title]Big Red[/post_page_title]
If you figure out what Big Red actually is, let us know. The Western Kentucky mascot is a blob of red with high eyebrows, a wide mouth and “WKU” written across his belly. Big Red has been around since 1979, and has even been in several ESPN commercials. He was created by a former student who drew a big red blob and handed it over to a committee, and so he was born. Over the years he was presented with several awards, and was inducted into the Capital One Mascot Challenge Hall of Fame.
