Butler to unveil new bulldog

A new Butler University mascot will make its debut at the Bulldogs men’s basketball game on Saturday at Hinkle Fieldhouse. Butler Blue III, also known as Trip, will be presented at the game at 2 p.m. The puppy will be joined by his big brother, Blue II, and the original Butler mascot, Butler Blue. Butler Blue is retired and lives in Illinois with his owner. The bulldog puppy was born Dec. 23. He comes from the same breeders who gave Butler Blue II about eight years ago.
