 The history of the Olympic mascots (AP)
The first mascot for snow
Olympic mascot is the first time in 1968 in Grenoble, France, the 10th Winter Olympic Games. At that time, the French Olympic Committee special projects committee member Michel Wodier that the session should have some games in the past Olympic Games for something different, but they decided for the first 10 to design a mascot of the Games. So, wearing a red-white-blue French tri-color flag ski appear in the line of sight of people. This called Yushi (Schuss) of the half-man half-skiing cartoon villains child image, a huge head and exaggerated Xiqiao and rigid body, such as a country with a strong will of the Toolbar. Since then, the use of all kinds of Games mascots become a practice and Schuss has become the mascot of the industry "first."
