UA homecoming this weekend is
all about Wilbur the Wildcat - the
beloved and furry mascot turns
50 on Saturday.

The UA used real animals as
mascots off and on between the
early 1900s and the late 1950s
(with at least one tragic mishap),
until two UA students (Richard
Heller and John Paquette)
pitched the idea of using a
costume-wearing human.

Wilbur made his first appearance
at the UA vs. Texas Tech football
game on Nov. 7, 1959, and was
an immediate hit, according to a
UA Web site.

Wilbur's look has evolved over the
years. It was during one of those
costume makeovers that Wilma
the Wildcat was created.

She made her first public
appearance on March 1, 1986,
during a "blind date" with Wilbur.
The pair later "married" before an
Arizona-Arizona State football
game.

For a chance to win a a set of
three audio books, tell us the
date of their wedding.

First look at Lindsay Lohan on 'Ugly Betty'

When I first heard that Lindsay Lohan was going to appear on “Ugly Betty” I assumed it would be a cameo as herself, like Victoria Beckham, Naomi Campbell and “Project Runway” winner Christian Siriano.

But that’s not the case.

Lohan will star in multiple episodes beginning on May 22 and extending into five episodes next season.

She plays Betty’s old high school bully and first appears in a flashback sequence of a dodgeball game…hence the gym uniforms in the photo above.

I can’t really decide if Lohan is too big a star to be doing a six-episode stint on a TV show or if she’s lucky to still get job offers.

She may have built up quite a reputation because of her past hard-partying ways but the show’s creator Silvio Horta said she was great to work with.

“Lindsay was terrific – a real pleasure. She came in early and was very pleasant,” he said.

Whatevs. I’m sure it’s going to be fun watching her torment poor Betty.
