What the hell? Is that a mutant pelican from the BP oil spill? Why are the feathers so dingy? Why does he have blue gloves on?

Haha, pretty much. Why green, also? Why not just white feathers? It's like the bird woke up from a hangover, discovering that he puked all over his feathers the night before.

I'm dying laughing over here. WHO HAS EVER EVEN SEEN A YELLOW PELICAN? This is the most terrifying mascot I have ever seen in my life. I really don't know how Dwight will hit free throws with that THING lurking about.
this thread is the best -- props to the OP. And so glad that #anxietytrooperjefe was safely out of the league and did not have to confront this!
Just EWWWWWWWWWWWW He's supposed to be a brown pelican. They can't even get the color of their mascot correct. Clutch should just beat the crap out of it
This thread is laugh out loud funny. Great stuff. Scary mascot.. Looks like the Fruit Loop Bird after he smoked a bunch of meth with Jessie Pinkman.
I thought Commodore had just found an extra creepy photo... but no... the team introduces him in some dimly-lit back corridor, of course. (Props to the IT reference above, hooroo).
