Fear the Turtle

When I was growing up (a Terps fan from the day I was born), this is the Terps logo I remember best:

He looks pretty grumpy, but he's always been my favorite.

For awhile in the '80's I remember a meaner-looking Terp (and I have a vauge recollection of the slogan "You're in Snappin' Terp country,") but I couldn't find an example of that picture.

While I was at Maryland, we used two logos: a lame red-and-white stylised M (for "Maryland Momentum"), and this smiley Terappin:

...which was funny, because we really didn't have much to smile about then. The grumpy Terp would definitely been more appropriate.

I'm not sure when the logo changed again, but most of my current Maryland gear has this guy:

I suppose he is more aggressive, as befits a school with actual winning athletic teams.

Last night at the hockey game, I saw somebody wearing this hat:

Fear the Turtle, indeed.
