Hey there Let's talk about the Lil Mounties, a mascot that's definitely unique and packed with character. The Lil Mounties, specifically the version known as Joe Mountie, were the longtime mascots of Mt. San Antonio College (Mt. SAC) in California. This mascot type is a person, often depicted as a tough, fighting mountie, complete with a weapon, which gave it a bold and courageous image 🛡️. However, it's worth noting that the Lil Mounties, and particularly Joe Mountie, had a complex history. The mascot was in use for 76 years but was eventually replaced due to concerns about its appropriateness and representation. Despite this, the spirit of the Mounties lives on, and the school still uses the moniker "Mounties" even after introducing a new mascot, a grizzly bear. The story of the Lil Mounties is a reminder that mascots can be more than just symbols; they can reflect the values and history of a school and its community. So, next time you see a mascot, remember there's probably an interesting story behind it ⭐
