Why is Alabama's mascot an elephant?
Can you explain why Alabama's mascot is an elephant?
Sure, the origins of Alabama's elephant mascot can be traced back to their 1930 football season. During a game against Ole Miss, sports journalist Everett Strupper wrote that the Alabama team's defense was as strong and sturdy as elephants. The mascot stuck and Alabama adopted an elephant as their official mascot.
