Penn State mascot busted for drunkenness

STATE COLLEGE, Pa., Sept. 1 (UPI) -- Penn State University says it has suspended its Nittany Lion mascot for a month over his arrest for being drunk in public.

Clint Gyory, 20, won't be donning his lion costume for the first month of the football season; however, it was not clear Wednesday if the cheerleading team had brought in a temp.

The Daily Collegian newspaper at Penn State said Gyory donned the cat suit as a freshman last fall and was considered the youngest of a long line of lions to stalk the sidelines in State College. His predecessor had been barred from the Rose Bowl after being busted for drunken driving.
