Saturday Morning Cartoons: Your 2009 Mascot of the Year

(Howdy Thunder peeps. Thank you for your continued support of Daily Thunder. Read a book today. I recommend God Save the Fan by Will Leitch. Nice read.)

Haven’t you heard the news? Rumble was named Mascot of the Year by… somebody. And you know what, I got a kick out of Rumble for the most part. I always thought mascots were annoying until I went to a few games early on last year where there wasn’t one. I found myself missing Hugo and wishing for someone to run up and pants Dick Bavetta. It’s not like Rumble is some revolutionary mascot that has changed everything forever. But he did a nice job and he’s been extremely active and has connected with fans really well. So congrats again Rumble. Wear your crown with pride.
