mascots rarely makes a highlight reel
but when they do you know something
crazy must have happened welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 most
ridiculous mascot moments before we
begin if you’re a sports fan
check out the lineup a hockey trivia
game show with a WatchMojo twist for
this list we’re looking at the craziest
incidents involving mascots at sporting
events some of these may have been
staged but they’re funny nonetheless
good news is although slightly deflated
the mascot was okay number 10 Benny the
bull proves chivalry is not dead
seemingly completely unaware that he’s
on the jumbotron this Celtics fan grows
more and more agitated as his partner
attempts to get his attention and even
appears to yell at her at one point
that’s when Chicago Bulls mascot Benny
the bull appears he shoves the Celtics
fan towards a drink over his head and
carries the girl away to the delight of
everyone if you thought this one was too
good to be true you’re right it was
confirmed as faked by the Bulls PR team
still a good one though number nine
mackerel Jordan eats it although not
affiliated with any one specific team
mackerel Jordan is quickly making the
case that he should be in this
particular clip the mascot begins
entertaining the crowd between innings
before approaching a ground worker who’s
raking the infield dirt the pair engages
in a game of fetch
before the worker pulls the classic
hidden ball trick but this doesn’t fit
so well with the fish who immediately
swallows the unsuspecting worker before
eventually spitting them back out I’ll
be it with slightly less clothing number
eight crunch the Timberwolf you look the
baby she’s not the feature game
executive mascots playing football
against children is one of those
stranger traditions in pro sports but
right or wrong it is absolutely
hilarious
who doesn’t love seeing someone wearing
a giant gopher costume stiff-arming a
ten-year-old kid on his way to a
touchdown
check out some gopher right here nice
straight ominous
in this particular instance crunch the
Timberwolves gets a little antsy and
jumps the snap count bursting through
the line before the ball has even been
snapped to hammer the defenseless
quarterback check out my man crunching
of timber wolf usually one of my
favorite jobs to lie dives on the yellow
quarterback by the way crunch was voted
mascot of the Year for 2011 2012
obviously number seven rollerblading
Raptor takes a tumble twice for whatever
reason NBA mascots tend to push the
boundaries when it comes to their job
taking risks that baseball or football
mascots likely never would case in point
that time the Toronto Raptors mascot
decided it would be a good idea to
rollerblade down the stairs of the Air
Canada Centre impressively he nearly
made it the entire way before slipping
and falling on his rear end undeterred
he picks himself back up and continues
on to the court before fully
face-planting yeesh even inside an
inflatable costume that’s gotta hurt
number six
melanne Walker’s mascot blender I forget
CQC very well on an outfit melanne
Walker is an incredible athlete and an
Olympic hurdles champion she was perhaps
at her best
during the 2009 World Championships in
Berlin where she won the gold medal with
a time of 52 42 seconds the
second-fastest time in history it was
her post victory celebration however
that most people remember immediately
after winning she jumps on the back of
Bern we know the bear the mascot for the
championships intending to do a victory
lap
unfortunately Berlin Oh failed to keep
his head up and crashed into a cart of
hurdle causing him to drop Walker could
have been dangerous but apparently
neither one
number five duck Sharky but we are
experiencing a delay and I can safely
say this is a National Hockey League
first I believe if you go to a San Jose
Sharks game you can expect to see SJ
Sharky entertaining the fans with a
number of unique stunts and acts he’s
perhaps best known for his grand
entrances typically coming down from the
Raptors much to the delight of fans
things didn’t go so smoothly on this
particular evening back in 1999 however
as Sharkey got stuck hanging over the
ice the game was actually delayed while
they tried to get him down which they
finally did by hoisting him back up to
the catwalk number four
Tommy Lasorda confronts the Philly
Phanatic that’s the quickest time he’s
moved all year we got to mark that that
as manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers
Tommy Lasorda one 1599 games and two
World Series titles and he does not have
time for mascots for example during one
game against the Montreal Expos was sort
of thought to it that Montreal’s mascot
goofy was ejected from the game but his
most famous mascot moment came in 1988
the Philly Phanatic was taunting Lasorda
with a Lasorda dummy the Dodgers manager
remained calm at first but eventually
snapped and chase down the mascot
throwing into the ground and taking the
dummy for himself he even got a nice hit
in on the fanatic with the dummy before
marching off hey says you don’t make fun
of me or my ballclub number three
Craig McTavish rips out Harvey the
hounds tongue although Craig McTavish
failed to lead the Edmonton Oilers to
the playoffs in his final three seasons
behind the bench he did manage to take
them to the Stanley Cup Finals back in
2006 even so he may be best remembered
for his actions during a game against
the Calgary Flames back in 2003 the
flames mascot Harvey the hound began
taunting the Oilers bench an annoyed
McTavish immediately called the mascot
over grabbed his tongue and ripped it
out before tossing it into the stands
Calgary won that game by the way and you
can see that I use my legs and my back
and I pull it out like you’re starting a
lawn
or number two the crazy Condor the
Condor is out running around its center
right I love it there’s a reason most
teams don’t use live mascots and this is
get the Bakersfield Condors of the
American Hockey League decided it would
be a good idea to bring out a real
condor before the game to perch at
center ice the bird had other ideas
however it escaped its handler thanks in
part to a timely spill on the ice the
bird eventually made its way over to the
benches hilariously terrifying the fully
padded players before deciding to leave
the rink entirely go to log and I didn’t
exactly go as planned but it’s all good
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions they
say the most powerful punches in boxing
are the ones that travel the shortest
[Music]
number one front flip fail not what we
would call a picture-perfect landed
what’s better than one mascot making a
fool of itself one mascot making a fool
of itself and injuring other mascots in
the process that’s exactly what happened
when Bernie the mascot for the Miami
Heat attempted to front flip over a
handful of mascots lying on their backs
at center court unfortunately for those
on the ground
Ernie’s attempt came up well short and
he landed directly on the final three of
the group the mascot suits may have been
smiling but the guys underneath were
clearly in a lot of pain oh yeah they
are clearly guys under there that’s
about it Lisa Lillien
100 pounds landing on maybe more
hopefully he had some padding do you
