Mascots observing minutes silences

If we're just generally sharing mascots, here's Hampton & Richmond's Bertie the Beaver :





I would love to see evidence of him participating in a minute' silence.

[Snake Plissken]

While we're in the off season, might as well have this.

Mexican baseball mascots go to the beach

[Toby Gymshorts]

Snake, that video is just brilliant.

[Various Artist]

Heheh, I've seen that one twice in recent weeks but I'm still in tears of laughter watching again just then. The faceplant at the end is just picture-perfect.

[Paul S]

That is just brilliant. Tears rolling down my cheeks at that last one.

[Patrick Thistle]

From the minute's applause at Shrewsbury v Bolton in April. Lenny and Mrs Lenny joined in.

At Crawley vs Cambridge this weekend: poke your tongue out if you're stood at the end.

[CY_Boaby]

Christ, for a moment there I thought he was also grabbing his crotch.

[Uncle Ethan]

Nice beaver, but why does Hampton and Richmond have a north american critter for a mascot? Yes, I realise this is an extremely delayed reaction.

[Ray de Galles]

After The Beveree.

[Uros Predic]

After The Beveree.

Have they found out if that penalty shoot-out is a record yet? The suspense is killing me.

Never fails to channel my inner Leslie Nielsen.

If you're interested in mascots (and hell why wouldn't you be if you're reading this thread) then I'd suggest taking a look at https://twitter.com/mondomascots twitter feed. Japan may well be the world leader in mascotting.

[MrLeam]

That twitter feed is wonderful. It also led my to the Wikipedia page of the "Japanese new religion, Happy Science" which includes the following sentence: "the organization's political wing, the Happiness Realization Party, promotes political views that include support for Japanese military expansion, support for the use of nuclear power, and denial of historical events such as the Nanjing Massacre in China"...

I also found Macclesfield Town's mascot joining a silence while perusing their website earlier. Unfortunately I can't get the image off so you'll just have to visit their homepage and view it in all its glory.

[Furtho]

No minute's silence here, but surely it must be worth a look at the J-League mascot -- Mr Pitch -- getting a trim.

[Satchmo Distel]

Different method for Mrs Pitch?

I also found Macclesfield Town's mascot joining a silence while perusing their website earlier.

Given the ambiguous nature of the above sentence, am a little disappointed to find that the Macclesfield mascot isn't joining a silence absentmindedly while he's otherwise busy perusing their own website.

However, it is indeed still a fine image, not least because his fixed facial expression is just much too joyous:

Several clubs appear to have had their poppy silence yesterday, Walsall's Swifty is a serial participant in these and has joined in again.



As did the AFC Telford United mascot (a bull apparently)

[Bored Of Education]

I had a chance to be Bladud the Pig - the controversial and, to others, seemingly random Bath City mascot - the other week. There was no way I was going to do it but did consider asking my mate who, every time he sees the pig, tells him his days are numbered now that the club is community-owned. Anyway, that was interesting mascot-related news enough but, at half time, the opposition mascot from Braintree was wandering around the bar without his head on. Appalling behaviour.

[Ray de Galles]

Oh, man!

[Patrick Thistle]

Why hasn't he got a poppy on his shirt?

[Ray de Galles]

That was the question being asked where I originally saw the photo;

Swifty has been upgraded since the last time I noticed him. He's finally got some big mascot feet and the gold legs are new(ish) too, possibly a tribute to Colin Kaepernick. Are there any mascot taking a knee photos yet?
