南非世界杯吉祥物是一頭非洲特有的獵豹,名叫扎庫(kù)米。不說(shuō)這頭獵豹其名其姓寓意如何,乍一看亮相,就印象深刻。
不同于傳統(tǒng)意義上的獵豹,扎庫(kù)米的長(zhǎng)相和藹可親,毫無(wú)兇相。感覺(jué)他就像上屆德國(guó)世界杯的吉祥物獅子皮樂(lè)。皮樂(lè)下身裸體,上身穿著德國(guó)男足的白色隊(duì)服,而扎庫(kù)米上身穿著印有南非世界杯字樣的T恤,下身套上的則是南非男足的綠色短褲。
世界杯吉祥物誕生于1966年,用動(dòng)物為原型設(shè)計(jì)吉祥物已成為某種主流。最近三屆世界杯,動(dòng)物無(wú)疑成了主角,除了德國(guó)的獅子皮樂(lè),法國(guó)世界杯的吉祥物是一頭公雞,名叫Footix,之前的美國(guó)世界杯,吉祥物是一頭奔跑中踢著球的小狗,名叫Strik。其實(shí)早在頭一屆運(yùn)用吉祥物的英格蘭世界杯上,獅子威利的形象就已深入人心。
用動(dòng)物做吉祥物,既生動(dòng)又形象,而且老少咸宜,沒(méi)有特別的年齡界限。關(guān)鍵是球迷記得牢,不會(huì)一下子對(duì)吉祥物失去記憶——當(dāng)年的北京亞運(yùn)會(huì)就是明證,熊貓盼盼的形象紅遍全中國(guó),動(dòng)物通人性,這一點(diǎn),在吉祥物身上頗有驗(yàn)證。
