"Last year in Atlanta where the Summer Olympics were held, there was a new mascot called Izzy. I think Izzy was a smart mascot, even if he was blue and bug-eyed. I think people accepted him after a while."

- Nayef Al-Fehadi


Each Olympic Games has its own mascot. These mascots are often pictured on t-shirts and other Olympic souvenirs.

After seeing Izzy, the mascot for the Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, students became creative and designed their own mascots for future Olympics and put them on t-shirts. Take a look at their designs.
