SnowletsOlympic MascotBorn: 1994 Birthplace: Nagano, Japan Best known as: Olympic mascots Birth Names: Nokki, Sukki, Lekki, and Tsukki Looking very much like Hooty the Owl crossed with a sumo wrestler, the cheerful Snowlets were the official symbols of the 1998 Nagano Olympic games. (According to Nagano officials, "'Snow' suggests the winter season... while '-lets' calls on everyone to join in the fun.") The four feathered crusaders are now retired, perhaps enjoying a well-earned rest in the South of France. Copyright © 1998-2013 by Who2?, LLC. All rights reserved. More on Snowlets from Fact Monster:
