Zoich
Zoich ( Cyrillic: Зойч, ) was a proposed mascot for the XXII Winter Olympics, which took first place in the official online poll to select a mascot for the 2014 Sochi games. Despite being a popular Internet character, the committee chose not to introduce it to the final round of the voting. Upon introduction and until the end of the online voting, it was the most popular mascot from those submitted. It also took only about 40 minutes for Zoich to take the top spot. Zoich can be considered example of guerrilla marketing, as the artist was commissioned by the 2014 Olympic Committee to create a mascot which would serve as an advertisement for the competition. It was revealed in June 2011 that Zoich was not a genuine independent entry into the competition in a statement from the president of Sochi 2014 Olympic and Paralympic Organizing Committee.

All The Presidents' Heads
"All the Presidents' Heads" is the twenty-third episode of the sixth season of the animated sitcom '' Futurama'', and originally aired July 28, 2011 on Comedy Central.
