What the F is Bubba?

Reading the Spring Game info page. Including this:

"The Indiana football marketing staff will have giveaways starting at 7 p.m. with rally towels available at all entry gates. All pregame activities will take place on the Memorial Stadium east concourse, with rally towels, schedule posters, schedule cards and magnets available. Photo opportunities with Bubba, The Rock, and B1G Inflatable will be available."

Is it Bubba the Bison perhaps?

Someone on X says it is a big inflatable football player. I've never seen it around so not sure what it looks like.

Disappointing. Big inflatable bison? Disappointed but could live with it.

If it's what I'm thinking of it's been around for awhile in the kids fun zone area... I just don't think the name was ever highly advertised before...

I asked the same question and Sammy Jacob’s said that it is a big inflatable guy. I thought the article was mentioning 3 distinct things: Bubba, The Rock and an inflatable guy.

My hope was that “Bubba” was a bison who would charge the inflatable guy, spear him with his horns and deflate him. That was the photo op I was waiting for.

If we can't have the real thing how about a coed in a two piece and a set of horns. We could call her Horney.
