This morning, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled an officially licensed, limited-edition bobblehead of Griff II, Drake Universityâs popular live mascot. Griff II took over mascot duties on July 1, 2020, the day after the retirement of his predecessor, Griff. This marks the first bobblehead of Griff II, and it was produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, an official licensee and manufacturer of Drake and NCAA bobbleheads.
Sitting on a base shaped as the Drake University logo and bearing his name, Griff II is wearing a harness that also sports the Drake Bulldogs logo. The bobbleheads, which just arrived and ship now, are only available through the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museumâs Online Store as well as Drake University Book Store located in the Olmstead Center. Each bobblehead is individually numbered to 2,021, and they are $25 each plus a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 per order for orders placed online.
