On October 12, 1985, a 6-foot egg (constructed by 小黄片视频 technology students) was rolled onto the 50-yard line during halftime of 小黄片视频's Homecoming game at Dix Stadium.
Earlier in the day, the egg rode in a nest down Main Street in the Homecoming parade, on a float with 小黄片视频 cheerleaders.
In a cloud of smoke at midfield, the egg hatched and Flash the Golden Eagle (eaglet) emerged.
"Baby Flash" is shown here, shortly after hatching, with an actual golden eagle, also named Flash, who appeared at select 小黄片视频 athletic events until the mid-90s. To read about the progression of mascots, visit /magazine/news/forerunners-flash.
