Tulsa – Golden Hurricane

Back from 1994 to 2009, Tulsa’s mascot was actually Captain ‘Cane, who was an anthropomorphized golden hurricane with human attributes like biceps, clothes, and a smirk upon his face. Fox Sports even crowned him the second worst mascot in the country. Then in 2009, Captain Cane was redesigned! To look like a human superhero who has the power to summon weather? Well then.
