AD Break 1

AD Break 2

Baseball and Rock & Roll both have their Halls of Fame, but so do Roller Derby, Insurance, even Towing & Recovery! The list goes on and on, but the category that captured our collective imaginations… the one dedicated exclusively to honoring those oversized and usually fur-covered entertainers… Mascots. Really, no really!

We were so intrigued by this commitment to the costumed team and company ambassadors that we invited Dave Raymond, the creator of the Mascot Hall of Fame , to be our guest. Dave also happens to be the original and iconic Phillie Phanatic!



We Discuss:
The Forbes Magazine #1 mascot of all time.
The importance of fun.
Mascots as a billion-dollar brand extension.
Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda’s Phanatic attack explained.
The disastrous launch of the  Philadelphia Flyers mascot Gritty.
What the Irritable Bowel mascot looks like.
What it takes to become a team mascot.
Chuck E. Cheese wasn’t supposed to be a rat.
How hot it is in that giant costume.
The types of fan abuse you have to deal with.
The Really, no Really mascot should be…???
