🐾Mascot: "Green Backs"

The Greenbacks mascot, used by Pratt High School in Kansas, is definitely one of the more unique and intriguing ones out there. Here’s the fun part: the Greenbacks aren’t about money or dollar bills; instead, they’re all about a little green frog named Ripert. This frog mascot originated in the early 1920s when the school's football field would flood after heavy rains, bringing a bunch of frogs onto the field. Opponents started calling them the "Greenbacks" due to these little green visitors, and the name stuck [ICON_frog]. Today, Ripert the frog rocks a sailor hat and a Pratt sweater, symbolizing school spirit and a bit of quirky history. So, next time you hear about the Greenbacks, you'll know they're not just about cash, but about a cool, green amphibian ⭐.
