{"id":23100,"count":1,"description":"Rowdy the Roadrunner is the mascot of the University of Texas at San Antonio Roadrunners, appearing as a supporter of athletics and other university sponsored events. The roadrunner was adopted as the official mascot in 1977 as a write-in option. If students had not shown their support for the roadrunner, UTSA's mascot would have been the armadillo. Rowdy is based upon the Greater Roadrunner.\nOn March 1, 2008, UTSA unveiled the new Rowdy and UTSA logos at the homecoming men's basketball game vs. Texas A&M; University\u2013Corpus Christi. Many students and administrators at UTSA thought the elder Rowdy looked too much like the Kansas Jayhawk.
