Thursday, December 10, 2009 NEWS&FEATURES NAIT mascot tragedy By ryan fLAherty NAIT is mourning the tragic loss this week of the school’s mascot, the Ooklet, who died while attempting to fly. The circumstances surrounding the tragedy are still somewhat unclear, but investigators are hoping that the results of an autopsy, expected some time next week, will help fill in the blanks. So far, all police are willing to say is that some time between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. last Saturday evening, the beloved blue owl climbed to the top of the parkade outside the Industrial Technical building and proceeded to fling himself off the upper level, dying instantly upon impact. One witness, who asked that her name not be published, said that every- thing happened quickly. “One minute I saw the Ooklet high- fiving a bunch of basketball fans outside the parkade, the next thing you know I see him hitting the ground,” she said. “He pretty much exploded into a ball of blue fluff and foam rubber.” Authorities are still piecing together the timeline leading up to the Ooklet’s Photo illustration untimely demise.
