Is the most famous Hokie Bird on there?
Oh, for sure
But I don't know if I know who that is
Curtis Dvorak
Nah - this is the most famous one
Fighting the Ibis
That Ibis had it coming
Tell Sebastian that he can go pluck himself.
Oh, he whooped his butt!
And when they announced the suspension...
I was there live for that incident. Great memories.
Gotcha - Curtis was the bird a few years before our time...
Conner Dixon is the best Hokie Bird of all time.
Good stuff y'all.
Question, Mas...if that's your real name 🧐...when Hokie Bird appears in things like Capitol One Mascot Challenge or a country music video, is it y'all or...imposters ?
It's usually really us. The athletic department is very protective of the bird so they don't want a company to have the use of the suit without a real Hokie in it.
usually?
I know of one time when they put a cheerleader in the suit for a commercial shoot because none of the birds were available. I don't think they've ever sent the suit out without someone "responsible" along with it
A lot of local events with the hokie bird have a full time athletic department employee in it now when the students aren't available.
We used to get paid a hundred bucks for that sort of thing so one of us was always available
You should loop hokietrax into this podcast. He would bring the saaaaalt.
Is it true that ever since Lee Corso famously picked against the Hokies on Gameday the Hokie Bird always farts in the mascot head before giving it to him to put on when he's picked us subsequently? or is that just my wishful thinking?
Hahahhahaha, if this is true this is amazing.
Lee Corso may not know what a Hokie is, but he's definietly smelled one.

Edit - snitches get stitches
I'm trying to crowd source our mailbag portion of the pod. So, leave a question here and we'll answer it on the next episode (probably)...
