Philadelphia's Best Shot at Victory Since 1980
August 18, 2008 | Posted by Kip - 1:52am | 3 Comments
On Saturday, the Philadelphia Phanatic took on "Parker" of the Fresno Grizzlies in an Olympic contest of mascot events.
Now, a Major League mascot of the caliber of the Phillie Phanatic taking on a minor league marvel is kind of like stacking your Olympic gymnastics team with underage girls in order to win the gold--or Russia fighting Georgia...but it does represent the opportunity for Philadelphia to finally win, well, something...
Anyway, the outcome of the match was apparently unimportant as while Kip could find much from Fresno as they waited with baited breath the arrival of the Michael Phelps of mascotry, Kip could find nothing relating the results of the outcome (or at least some video of the performance).
PS I haven't forgotten Mitch Williams, destroyer of dreams
