Just as your own sense of fashion has evolved over the years, Allegheny’s faithful mascot, Chompers, has enjoyed many different looks over the past 90 years… in animal print… paper maché… and who can forget the shag carpet look?
Not wanting to miss out on the big 200th birthday celebration, Chompers has a new look for a new century.
Thanks to your help.

Dark green, light green, gold, or blue, Chompers represents all of @GatorSports and @alleghenycol and I'm glad that tradition will continue.

About The #ChompTheVote Campaign
From December 1 through December 7, 2014, Allegheny students, alumni, faculty, and staff cast their votes for the new Chompers costume color. Voting was spirited and passionate, with exciting engagement on social media using hashtags for the overall voting campaign (#ChompTheVote) and individual color “teams” (#TeamBlue, #TeamDarkGreen, #TeamBrightGreen, #TeamGold).
On Saturday February 14, 2015, the all-new Chompers made its debut between the women’s and men’s basketball games at the Wise Center.
