Meet the Bunnies, one of the most unique and adorable school mascots out there This cute animal mascot has a fascinating history, particularly at Fisher High School in Illinois. The story goes that during the 1933-34 basketball season, two players wore a rabbit's foot on their belts for good luck, and after a big win, a sportswriter from the Champaign News Gazette dubbed the team the "Bunny Boys," which later shortened to just "Bunnies"🐾. This nickname has stuck around, and it's now used by several schools, making it a beloved and quirky part of school spirit. So, the next time you hear about the Bunnies, remember they're not just cute; they're also steeped in good luck and basketball history🏆.
