TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -
Sparky, the pitchfork-toting mascot of the Arizona State University Sun Devils, has gotten a facelift.
The mascot's new look was developed as a collaborative project between the university and The Walt Disney Company.
The new-look mascot will make its on-field debut at the spring football game in April.
The ASU-Disney connection dates to 1946 when the first Sparky the Sun Devil was drawn by Disney artist, Berk Anthony.
