White Pelican Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 This seems like a good place for this. The Billikin is a 41m long fishing vessel based in Seattle that was launched in 1973. Not spelled like the SLU mascot but they got the colors right. Box and Won, BilliesBy40, rgbilliken and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clocktoweraccords2004 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Billiken is big in Alaska for some reason. Had some people come up to me with a billiken shirt on and asked if I was from there. Makes sense for Seattle. also they were able to mass produce jerseys for a student section that were great but couldn’t make more and make $$$ off them?

thetorch Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 7 hours ago, RUBillsFan said: Why aren’t we using “Grin and Win” as a slogan? A couple years ago they had a series of lectures for the bicentennial. One was on the history of the "Billiken." A gentlemen hosted it who was the historian emeritus for the university. I knew more than him and I nearly walked up to the front of the hall and took over the lecture. We all lament SLU going half ass on so many things but refusing to use or much less acknowledge the storied history of the mascot is a real crime. There is a rich history there that can be marketed and branded to build a better identity for SLU athletics and it is going to waste. willie, FromDaEastSide, brianstl and 2 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetorch Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Didn't know where to put this. I saw on French's Instagram story a life-size cardboard cut out of him, along with some other players. I need these.

Slu let the dogs out? Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Is there no such thing as a Saint Louis University Basketball license plate frame? Cause I'd sure like to screw one of those onto my motor vehicle. Didn't see one pop up via the googles machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that it will be specifically for basketball, but I think you should find something there with the university on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I currently have a Saint Louis University Alumni frame on my car that I bought from the bookstore but wanted to update that to a basketball-specific one if I could.

BilliKat Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I don’t know if anyone will have any ideas but- I guess this would be the place to ask- I am a nurse clinician and want a billiken on my badge. So I want to find a felt billiken ( one of the old ones- I’m still not on board with the new billiken) maybe only about 2 inches big so I can proudly display it daily and know that I’m a fan of any patients that notice it any ideas?

Taj79 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 They used to give out those felt stick-ons at alumni gatherings before road games and at the tournament but as noted, they haven't had the old Billiken in years now. The last few I received were the new logos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
