BSU’s Buster Bronco Lives a Double Life as Another College’s Mascot

Buster Bronco is a beloved part of Boise State Athletics. You can see him at every home football game sporting a #0 Boise State football jersey and a #54 orange basketball jersey for basketball games. He is the spirit of Boise State Athletics and the ultimate hype horse. Buster Bronco bleeds blue and orange.. or does he?

Boise State's very own mascot may be leading a double life 1,500 miles away from here in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I was astonished (and a little offended) to learn that Western Michigan University's mascot is ALSO a bronco whose name ALSO happens to be Buster!

For the record, Buster Bronco of Boise State has been around since 1932. He didn't start hanging around Western Michigan until 1981 and wasn't formally adopted by WMU's athletic department until 1988. So yes, Bronco Buster has been with Boise State far longer than he's been with Western Michigan.

Now we know we can't be the only bronco mascot to exist. There are plenty of other broncos out there like the Denver Broncos, of course. They have two official bronco mascots - one named Miles and the other Thunder. These are obviously two completely different broncos. But Buster Bronco?! Sorry WMU, but the college sports scene ain't big enough for the two of us.

If Boise State really wanted to, they could trademark Buster Bronco as a mascot just how they trademarked their iconic blue turf. As for Buster Bronco, it's time to decide where the loyalty lies. Pick a team, Buster.

The resemblance is honestly uncanny!

Reviews for "The Unique Connection Between Boise State's Mascot and Fans"

1. John - 1/5 - The book "What is the Boise State Mascot" was a huge disappointment. As a Boise State fan, I was expecting an exciting and informative read about our beloved mascot. However, the book fell short on both accounts. The writing was dull and lacked any engaging storytelling, making it a chore to get through. Additionally, the book provided little to no information about the mascot itself. It was more of a general overview of the Boise State football team. Overall, I would not recommend this book to anyone looking to learn about the Boise State mascot specifically.

2. Sarah - 2/5 - I had high hopes for "What is the Boise State Mascot" as I wanted to know more about the history and symbolism behind it. Unfortunately, the book failed to deliver. While it briefly mentions the mascot, the majority of the content is about the football team and their achievements. The writing style was also quite dry, making it difficult to stay engaged. Overall, I was left feeling unsatisfied and wanting more information on the actual mascot itself.

3. Michael - 1/5 - "What is the Boise State Mascot" was a complete waste of time. The book promised to delve into the origins and significance of the mascot but barely scratched the surface. Instead, it focused more on game highlights and player statistics, which was not what I was looking for. The lack of in-depth research and information on the mascot was truly disappointing. I would not recommend this book to anyone interested in learning about the Boise State mascot.

4. Emily - 2/5 - I was hoping "What is the Boise State Mascot" would provide an interesting insight into the history and meaning behind the mascot. However, the book turned out to be nothing more than a brief mention of the mascot with a heavy emphasis on football-related topics. The writing style wasn't particularly engaging, and I felt like the book lacked a cohesive structure. If you're looking for a comprehensive exploration of the Boise State mascot, I suggest looking elsewhere.
