I don't know who decided to give us a nickname without anything to go with it but it wasn't the greatest idea.
My mom went there, and they are called the green terror because their football team was like a green terror running at the other team, so a more accurate mascot would be:

That makes sense but most people there (including me) had no clue that's why we are what we are. It doesn't really matter anyways since the football team is a joke. At least we're good at basketball..

You don't find an artichoke, a fighting ones nonetheless, intimidating at all? Sounds pretty fierce to me. I wouldn't want to face that thing on the field/court.
