Petey, your lovable Golden Griffin mascot, has made the Final Four in this year’s College Court Report mascot contest. Petey has beaten Butler, North Florida, St. Louis and Hey Reb (UNLV) to reach the Final Four.
Petey is battling Sam the Minuteman of the University of Massachusetts in one semifinal, while Peter the Anteater of the University of California, Irvine is matched up against HH3 of the University of Maryland Eastern Shore in the other Final Four battle.
To help move Petey onto the championship tilt, please follow the directions below:
You can vote on the site every day, numerous times a day, it doesn’t matter. That link is below. You can just refresh the page and continue to vote. Final Four voting runs from Monday, October 12 through Saturday, October 24.
On Tuesdays, on Twitter, using the hashtag #CCRPetey gives Petey two votes instead of one. The same rules apply on Facebook on Fridays using that same hashtag, #CCRPetey.
There is also an Instagram account that people can like or comment on the picture and vote for Petey, too. That account is College Court Report.
