&lt;p&gt;9. Butler Bulldogs&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In 1919 a Bulldog named Shimmy, the mascot of a Butler fraternity, strolled into the student newspaper office just as they were looking for mascot inspiration. Previously the teams were known as the &amp;quot;Christians,&amp;quot; but a long string of losses in the football season had caused the school to search for a new name. The idea stuck, and the next day the school paper featured a cartoon showing the dog labeled &amp;quot;Butler.&amp;quot; The Bulldogs lost the next game, but the nickname remained.&lt;/p&gt;
