Mascot Madness and Sideline Shenanigans
I love it when baseball season starts, because there is always a new crop of Minor League teams, and they always get creative with their mascots. Nowhere else in America except for Walla Walla, Washington could any team get away with a winking onion mascot. Great idea, and great execution. I don't know how I'd feel being a big, tough … [Read more...]
I don't know what the obsession in SouthEast Asia is with choreographed mascot dances, but here's another one. Supposedly Old Master Q and Big Potato are popular Manga/Anime/Nerdgasm characters and they like to make public dancing appearances. Ifthere were ever two mascots that didn't look like they should be popping and/or locking... it … [Read more...]
I don't know if this is an official mascot or a crazed fan, but either way I think it has gotten out of hand. This Rafael Nadal mascot was seen wandering the streets in Spain while the real Nadal was probably somewhere beating Roger Federer. Let's not get too crazy guys. Tennis players already have big heads, they don't need to be big AND … [Read more...]
Ok, if there is anything I love more than Heather Mitts, it would be the picture of Rocky, The Denver Nuggets mascot I have posted to my right. And thanks to loyal reader Mike, I have another awesome story about Rocky to post. It seems over the weekend, Rocky decided to run a 10K, and many fans didn't think he could do it. According to … [Read more...]
As far as I know, this is a first for the mascot world. The Albany River Rats of the American Hockey League are leaving New York for greener pastures... They leave behind a strong community of loyal fans, and one scrappy, yet loveable mascot. Rowdy, the River Rats mascot, has been in New York since 1993, and has become a very visible local … [Read more...]

Found this on Twitpic, and I think it is pretty cool. I'm not sue if this is a college wide thing, or possibly just a class project, but what an awesome way to use the mascot to spruce up your campus. There's always some construction going on at college campuses. May as well use the mascot (or a realistic sign) to tell people. … [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...]
Apparently, Lee Corso is tired of getting inside someone elses sweaty, stinky mascot head, and has finally gotten his own. In the picture above from a recent GameDay promo shoot, Corso dons his new mascot head with pride as he is surrounded by some other college mascots. This really only means one thing... College football season is getting … [Read more...]
Oh, the minor leagues, wehre the great players are few and far between, and the mascots get paid in hot dogs (literally). This commercial, featuring Bernie from the Inland Empire 66ers is for Winning Smiles, a dental office in Fontana, California. I have t ogive this dentist some props, he knows how to use his marketign dollars. Pimping out … [Read more...]
