⭐ Spirit and traditions

Sun Devils bleed maroon and gold and cheer for ASU at every opportunity.

Sparky

School mascots change and evolve to capture the spirit, pride and tradition of the institution. Before Sparky, ASU’s mascot was a bulldog from 1922 to 1946. Originally designed as a logo by artist and former Disney® employee Berk Anthony in the late 1940s, Sparky made his debut as a mascot in 1951. His costume was created and portrayed by ASU student Dick Jacobs, who performed stunts that may be considered dangerous today. After a few costume updates to keep with the times, today’s beloved Sparky the Sun Devil is recognized across the country and can be seen stomping the opposing team’s bus before each football game and performing a push-up for every point scored after a touchdown.

The Inferno

The Inferno, ASU’s student section, turns up the heat at our athletic events. A sea of gold, students stay on their feet cheering on the Sun Devils until the game is over.
