Photo Gallery: World Cup Mascots

By Ollie Irish

Picture 1 of 9

World Cup Willie (England 1966)

The only ones I couldn’t find high-quality pics of: Juanito from Mexico ’70, Gauchito (no relation) from Argentina ’78, and that weird trio of ‘aliens’ from Japan/Korea ’02.

My favourite? Has to be Naranjito the orange, from Espana ’82.

    What a horrifying gallery… Ciao is the worst, by far.

    I thought Graham Poll was the World Cup Willy?

    I respect Goleo’s decision to go pantsless.
