Cobi

Barcelona 1992 Summer Olympics | Character

Something Missing?

Cobi is a humanised Pyrenean mountain dog in a cubist style. While his expression and three spiky hairs are the same, he has an impressively large wardrobe. Reactions to Cobi were mixed when he was first presented, but he grew in popularity during the months leading up to the Games, and ultimately proved a huge success. The name, Cobi, is an allusion to COOB'92, an abbreviation of the Barcelona '92 Olympic Organising Committee. The name was chosen because it is simple and easy to pronounce in most languages.
