Harry the Husky comes in at number nine on our list. Harry is one friendly looking Husky, but then again I have never met a mean looking husky. I don’t even think mean huskies exist.

The Washington Huskies re-made the mascot in 2010, while retiring the old costume, according to the Harry the Husky Wikipedia page. The new Harry made his debut on October 9, 2010.

Also, for a bit of trivia knowledge…

"A contest and public vote two years later named the new mascot “Harry the Husky.” The mascot had already been referred to by that name during a scene in The Sixth Man, a film starring Marlon Wayans about the University of Washington basketball team, that had been released prior to the vote."

The more you know.
