    No wonder no one cheers for their basketball team.

    They must be creating these monsters deliberately to get extra publicity... it's the only reasonable explanation for this...

    The Pelicans' front office is genius. Embracing these creepy mascots has made them one of the "teams of the Internet." While the on-court product may not be succeeding, everybody has an opinion on the Pelicans now. That's more than be said for other middlings teams like Sacramento and Atlanta.

    ^ Sacramento has internet cred, they became the first major sports team to accept bitcoin payments.

    Also, having boogie helps

    I swear to God, there's something in the water down there in Louisiana ...esp. in New Orleans, it's always been something about that city that is off centered.

    Love it. Their marketing team had to be ROFLing while coming up with these ideas

    For those that don't know, the King Cake is a mardi gras tradition and has a plastic baby in it. So it's a celebration of Mardi Gras. Still creepy though.
