Mascot Madness and Sideline Shenanigans
OK, so professional Indoor Lacrosse will never be a sport that ranks highly in America. Even MLS has a better chance. But they are trying their hardest to appeal to the "target audience" with this move. It seems some smart (formerly employed) game operations person (probably the mascot) had the great idea to have a halftime lapdance … [Read more...]
In the FCS (that's Football Championship Series to you BCS lovers) they like to crown a true national champion through a playoff, like it should be. They also like to have mascot dance-offs at pre-championship game tailgate celebrations. In this case though, I smell a setup. Swoop from Eastern Washington University, and yoUDee from the … [Read more...]
If there's two things Koreans love, it would be their mascots, and their soccer cheerleaders. Well buckle up becauste this clip seems to have both, and it looks like they mesh together perfectly. There's not much to say about the clip other than the commentary from the girl watching... My favorite line... "There's kids watching!" Mascot … [Read more...]
Okay, so the video is from 2008 and promotes a now defunct "please join AOL again" campaign. But I think the underground dance battle is just what mascots need. No loud crowds, no crazy fans, and especially... no extra innings Wait, that's all the things mascots do need. Perhaps that is why this is the first time you've seen this … [Read more...]
The Celebrity Mascot Games was this past weekend and, as always, it was a great event for a great cause. This morning I ran into some videos of the shenanigans that went on over the weekend, and boy, do I wish I could have attended. The first video shows some of the games played by the mascots. The second video is a "How To Dance" clinic … [Read more...]
This is the Jollibee mascot, and he represents a restaurant found mainly on the West Coast. AND... he knows how to get down. If you've seen this character on YouTube, you know that he can cut a rug. In this video he dances to a montage of your all time favorites: Baby by Justin Bieber, Tic Toc by Kesha, You Make Me Feel by Michael Jackson, … [Read more...]
Oh, good old Long Beach Poly... Home of the Jackrabbits. I have to admit when I saw this video on YouTube, I was expecting another lame high school attempt at mascoting. But what a pleasant surprise it was to see some high school mascots doing it right. Sure, they wouldn't stand a chance against Stuff from Orlando, or The Phillie Phanatic, … [Read more...]
THe Tampa Bay Devil Rays held their annual "Hip Hop Night" last week and put on a pretty good show. One of the highlights was Raymond, The Rays mascot dancing with Eniggma, a dance crew that was featured on the VH1 show "America's Best Dance Crew" It looks like it took a lot of rehersal, and it is always great to see a choreographed mascot … [Read more...]
If you know anything about me, you know that: #1: I am a soccer fan, and #2: I am a Heather Mitts fan You can also pretty much assume that I like mascots as well, so when I found some pictures of the WPS's Phialdelphia Independence team dancing with the mascot of the Phillies, it was only natural that I post it here. So, here you go... … [Read more...]
I love opening day. It only comes once a year even though baseball season seems to run year-round. What I love best, however, is the big crowds and crazy mascot antics. The Phillie Phanatic never disappoints, and this year was no different. He channels his inner Lady Gaga in his special dance rendition of Bad Romance. Thank goodness for … [Read more...]
