Sparty wins the title

So, our beloved mascot, Sparty, has won a competition that says he's the top mascot. But, of course, we all knew that. Being the dutiful daughter, sister, niece, cousin and granddaughter that I am, I forwarded it onto my family. Josh's response just busted me up. He said...:

"While reading the article and seeing that picture of Sparty, I couldn't help but think that I was watching a really tragic episode of 'Behind the Music'.

In a world of cartoon birds, badgers, warriors and wildcats, nobody stood taller than Sparty. But the good times were not to last for East Lansing's favorite son. Shortly after winning the College Mascot Nationals, Sparty's life began to spin wildly out of control.

Goldy the Gopher: Me and Sparty, we was probably doin' about $300 or $400 worth of blow every night around that time. And let me tell you, Sparty loved the women too.

The MSU mascot's fast life came screeching to a halt on the night of February second when police found Sparty naked and passed out in a local gentleman's club bathroom with a pound of marijuana tucked under his arm.

When we return things get even worse for Sparty."

Oh, my...he's a funny Yosh, he is.
