Anyone really think Herbie is necessary?

[Suhrreal]

Is this really something we need to keep for "tradition" or anything else? I thought Lil' Red was a nice gimmick for a while, but I'm looking at this Chair trophy they are bringing back and Herbie's smiling mug is on it.

I saw someone's sig pic a while back and it was a gorilla in a pair of overalls and a cowboy hat. I think that's actually a pretty cool upgrade from the new Herbie.

Yes

I honestly can't stand the new Herbie. Much prefer the old school 1974-2002.

Herbie is necessary. Lil Red is an abomination.

 

[Buicklife]

Ol herbie is cool...new Herbie sux...Lil Red should have been aborted.

 

[dinglefritz]

Can we find anything else to ***** about? Little kids love Lil Red and that's part of keeping things interesting for future fans. It's a family deal. It's not all about supposed grown ups.

Saw this dude at the Oregon game. I say make him the official mascot.

The blonde haired Herbie is the mascot I grew up with in the 70's and 80's
and the one I like the most :Cool:

Have you seen a cornhusker lately - biggest, ugliest, toughest machine on the farm
need that for a mascot

Love to see the gorilla one.. I think that would be pretty cool.

Lil' Red is dated.. I don't think they can give him a fidget spinner and call it good either.

Herbie is kinda creepy.

Since we are all about destroying identity and tradition, I say axe both lil red and herbie and go for the gorilla in overalls with the cowboy hat..

 

[Foosball is the devil]

There are two little reds. They alternate because they get so hot and stinky. Ick

 

[bkrrrrr]

New mascot: combine harvester wearing the traditional N hat.

 

[TwinsRRUs_rivals79748]

New mascot... ?

 

[redwine65]

these are the best 2 all time.

a texas fan was pretty funny when he put the creepy herbie in a free candy van, in a photoshop picture

 

[jimbosc]

I would be fine with ESPN firing Herbie - but he would probably just show up on FS1/Fox or BTN.

He probably gets told to sit down at home games.
