Stupid Mascot of the Month #1

Introducing the mascot for the Finland- and Sweden-hosted International Ice Hockey World Championship

…HockeyBird!

HockeyBird

At the time of writing HockeyBird is not featured on the front page of the World Cup Hockey 2012 website. Could HockeyBird be an embarrassment? Has HockeyBird been revealed as a hardened alcoholic or embroiled in a sleaze scandal?

Context and a more familiar HockeyBird can be found here.

[Sorry, Walker. This just made me laugh so much I had to share it with others!]

    Well, that's one thing I didn't expect to see on this site.

    This would have made more sense last month, when they had the championship, though. Or last year when the abomination was unveiled.

      Alas, I didn't open the links in your email until last Friday. Better late than never, though!

    I was all ready to be outraged and argue against having Big the Cat given such a dishonourable title, but it looks like he has been spared. So I'll just move along.

      Thinking about it, Sonic Team have provided enough ammunition to make this a monthly series running all the way through to 2014.

        I know right?? Heck, if we were to pick Knuckles Chaotix alone (which is a great game btw), we'd be set until 2013, EASY.
