So actually the Butchers have two different mascots. I wasn’t sure why we decided to go in this direction but it’s paid off in spades for fan engagement. The first mascot we have is a giant dragon that we named H.H. Holmes in honor of the Chicago based architect. The building he designed was the Murder Castle! Now, I know what you’re saying. Tree why do the Butchers have a mascot named after one of the more famous serial killers in the world? And to answer you, why not? Chicago’s history is rooted in violence and murder so why not embrace the past in a comical way? Teaches the kids about history through non-violent means. The other mascot the Butchers have is Tyron “CC” Shields. CC is the mascot because he’s the biggest clown on the field and in the locker room and he’s just so silly whenever he tries to be serious. The reason our two mascots are special is because no other team in the league has a mascot like ours. Not even London has a mascot named after a serial killer (which is a real missed Jack the Ripper opportunity), and no team has their own cornerback and general manager as a mascot as well.
