The Legend of Joe Vandal

Joe's epic journey began in 1956. From the very first papier-mâché head introduced by yell leader Bill Currie, to an inflatable that Vandal 球迷 still love to hate, to his current well-muscled vibe — Joe's been through it all. 赢了, 损失, 对抗, 恶作剧, 球迷, parades and street fairs are at the top of his list of favorite things. The self-proclaimed "Vandal Spirit Superintendent" loves a good practical joke almost as much as he loves Idaho 球迷. He’s outgoing, friendly, active, fun loving and lovable, but mischievous at every opportunity. Joe is immensely proud to be who he is — a Vandal — and proud to represent his beloved university.

Joe stands high above the rest (seriously, he's tall) and is the only Vandal mascot out there — not like those Eagles, 山猫, 伐木工人, 熊和孟加拉虎. Find out where he will be, request an appearance and check out videos, gifs and photos below.
