School Mascots

My kids' schools are the Faller Suns(for Theodore Faller, a navy pilot who stayed with his jet rather than eject so that he could steer it away from the school, and died before they could get him out of the burning plane), and the Monroe Tigers. The high school here is Sherman Burroughs High school, and the mascot is the Mighty Burros, which seems odd, becasue I never thought of a burro as mighty.

Ohhh, I just remembered that the elementary school I went to before we moved back to my 'rents home town in first grade was the Boone Station Bucking Broncos. It was in Ohio, though, not Kentucky.
