Together, they divide up appearances. Mas cot attends all football and men’s basketball games, as well as com mercials and community appear ances. The three others attend games for different sporting and public relations events. At his busiest, Mascot participated in more than 20 events during three weeks before school started. To recompense him for his time and effort, the University pays Mascot a stipend. Mascot said his benefits include travel ing to away games, riding the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, hanging out with cheerleaders and interacting with the fans.

Mai Nagasaki, a freshman from Japan, said having the Duck at games “makes it exciting.” Junior Justin Zuiker said when the Duck rides the motorcycle and holds an American flag at football games, the Duck raises the fans’ en ergy and spirits. However, Mascot must also grin and bear difficult situations such as scared kids and over-enthused or drunk fans who pull on his tail. Mascot said he expects some ag gressive “high fives” from spirited and intoxicated fans, but last year Mascot had his “feathers ruffled” by an out-of-control fan and respond ed in like manner. When the men’s basketball team was playing University of Nevada, Las Vegas, in December 2000, Mascot said he was tackled from behind by an opposing fan.

While University athletes usu ally make the news, Mascot’s brawl was shown on local news stations and SportsCenter as the “Play of the Day.” Most of the time, though, Mascot’s “Duck Guard,” a security guard who trav els with him everywhere, helps him avoid such conflicts. At his graduation, Mascot said he will hang up his webbed feet and pursue a career in human resources, public relations or politics. Maybe then, University fans will be able to know the name of the mystery man whose picture hangs on their walls. Anne LeChevallier is a features reporterforthe Oregon Daily Emerald.
