1	AutoPost Fri 4/15/2011 10:04a	This topic is for Discussion of Latest: Arizona State helmets drop their demonic homage to Walt Disney Yahoo.com's Rivals reports the Arizona State Sun Devils have changed their football helmet logos to a pitchfork instead of the former devil motif. What's this got to do with Disney? Here's the relavant section... The only major casualty of the redesign: The cartoon Sun Devil himself, Sparky, who was originally incarnated in the late-'40s by alum Bert Anthony, a former Disney artist who allegedly (and probably apocryphally) modeled the Devil's features after his old boss as retribution for being fired.
