🐾Mascot: "Spoofhounds"

Meet the Spoofhounds, a mascot that's both tough-sounding and surprisingly cute This unique mascot is associated with Maryville High School in Missouri, and its origins are pretty interesting. The name "Spoofhound" came from a football coach who, back in the day, jokingly called his underachieving team a bunch of "Spoofhounds," which were once known as lazy carnival dogs. However, the team loved the name so much that it stuck, and over the years, the image of the Spoofhound has evolved from a softer creature called "Spoofy" to a more aggressive and fierce-looking mascot, thanks to a redesign contest won by a school art instructor and coach, Brian L. Lohafer 🦴. Today, the Spoofhound is a symbol of school spirit and resilience, and it's definitely one of the most unique mascots you'll come across in the USA ⭐.
