I went to school in a town named after a particular animal, and the school's mascot was... that very same animal.

i think it sounds adorable. the mascot should be tiny anthropomorphic clogs or something.

there was a rural HS near me built near a freeway called, sadly, "I-35 High School". their mascot is the Roadrunners. it's even in a town, technically!
That's the awesomest thing I've ever heard of.
I keep forgetting you're from Pella, goole. Those kids I ran into with the wooden shoes in the park must be starting college now.

I live in Des Moines, a good friend from high school followed his wife to college at Central, and they worked/lived at a motel there for a while.
There are some weirdo conservative things they ran into, like people scolding you for mowing your lawn on Sunday or post-dating checks written on Sunday so it would look like they weren't shopping on Jesus day.
A really nice coworker of mine is from Pella. He unironically has a Creation Museum shirt and coffee mug that I choose to ignore.
But I love dutch letters! Tulips are pretty cool.
