Colorado is the home of many sports teams, but their not exactly known for their stellar mascots. With the existence of the Yeti, this will come to change drastically. Last Friday the team unveiled their new mascot, Yannick the Yeti. Aptly named after the team, Yannick can commonly be seen around the stands taking pictures with young fans or crushing pop cans under his massive feet.
The best way to describe Yannick himself is comedic. Rather than following suit with the maroon and white colors of the Yeti, the costume designers payed homage to the team's roots as the Denver Grizzlies and instead took a more childish orange and blue approach. Many of the families and younger fans seem to love this decision, and it will be something that sets the legacy of the team for the future.
