(S28) PT2 - Mascots

[overdoo]

(Disclaimer: I did not make this, Jellyfish had made a mascot for us earlier in the season and I think it deserves to be shown off)

        While they have not come to life just yet, there were some ideas on how to market a new Baltimore Hawks mascot. Names such as Shrill, Jeffrey, George, and "One Big Hawk" had gone up for discussion, but I'm sure you could guess which one PR narrowed that down to. That's right, the new mascot's name will be George. As depicted, he is pretty much just a hawk, but some in the organization thought the name "George" and the overall look of the hawk was not scary enough. So, some of the team went out and bought some sick curved knives, birds beak paring knives. With 5 bought, they taped them onto the feet of the hawk to make talons that could hurt a child, just as intended. You may be thinking, when did George lose a toe? He didn't the missing talon ended up being a lego brick taken straight from a player's kid. First seen as an unintended mistake turned out to be the most dangerous part of these supposed upgrades. Lastly, Larsen had gone to a local shop and frankly got a little overwhelmed, unintentionally buying a flag about double the size of intended. However, no one knew that he had made a mistake until he guiltily brought it up. As you can guess, he was praised. Now some poor chap in a costume has to wave a massive flag on his own. Also, uh, because the flag is impressive. That is the biggest reason. I think.
