THE REDBIRD NICKNAME | REDBIRDS OF BOTH KINDS

The mascot is Reggie Redbird, a student bedecked in costume. Reggie was named in 1980 after a contest among Junior Redbird Club Members.

The suit is donated by Rick Percy, general manager of Clemens and Associates Insurance and a longtime member of The Redbird Club.

Reggie Redbird can be seen during the year at all Illinois State Athletics events, and is also active on the Illinois State campus, during special University and ISU Athletics events and throughout the Bloomington-Normal, Ill., community.
