The marsupial mascot of the University of Akron, Zippy the kangaroo (female, because of the pouch) brought home $10,000 for a scholarship fund by winning the 2007 national Capital One Mascot of the Year Challenge. Zippy went furry head to furry head against various birds of prey, mammals, and nonhuman objects from other universities, going undefeated during the 13-week contest and proudly accepting the winner’s green jacket during halftime of the Capital One Bowl on January 1st 2008.
