Kansas fans can show understandable pride in their mascot, the Jayhawk, which has one of the most interesting histories of any US collegiate mascot. Share in that tradition by owning your own University of Kansas icon, the Stone Mascots' Jayhawk.
The Jayhawk is a mythical bird, half blue jay and half sparrow hawk. If you were to insult someone in Kansas in the 1850s, you would call him a ruffian or "jayhawker". In time, the term was associated with patriotic Kansas natives and when in 1890, the University of Kansas football team needed a mascot, it turned to the Jayhawk and the rest is history.
We present the current Jayhawk mascot (which was designed in 1946) in statue form, complete in vibrant KU blue plumage, crimson head, yellow bill and of course, don't forget those yellow boots! He's also available in vintage and bronze finishes. Made of premium cast stone, your Jayhawk will feel right at home, in your home. Order now and pay no shipping fee.
