A University of Kentucky fan posted a video on Twitter of an old horse mascot on the sidelines of the Murray State and UK game claiming it to be the official mascot of the Racers. Murray State fans were quick to call his bluff by posting pictures of “Dunker”, the Racers’ actual team mascot. Murray State’s Barstool account had arguably the best reaction to the “phony pony”.
