Nittany Lion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Useless Wikipedia fact o' the day. WTF is a Nittany Lion?:
"Mountain lions had roamed on nearby Mount Nittany until the 1880s. The origin of the name 'Mount Nittany' is obscure, the most commonly accepted explanation being that it is derived of Native American words (loosely pronounced as 'neet-a-nee') meaning either 'single mountain' or 'a protective barrier against the elements.'"
