Sparky is quite devilish.
Mascots are often playful, silly and harmless. Arizona State's devilish mascot, Sparky, is usually no exception.
This week, however, Sparky may have been a bit too much in character. According to KNXV-TV, Sparky jumped on Tempe City Councilman David Schapira -- still recovering from a recent back surgery. The councilman was laughing, he said, he until he realized he had torn a back muscle.
