Give a Hoot for the new Rapids Mascot!
We at Class VI HQ are not quite sure if this is a joke or not. The article from the Rapids website appears quasi-serious, and it's not April Fool's Day.
Hooter's(tm) tapped to sponsor new Rapids Mascot
For all of you (ahem, Pablo) who have whined that the Rapids focus their marketing too tightly on the kids and soccer moms, this mascot's for you!
At first I was aghast at this display, but now I feel a growing love inside for the cute little lass. Not that I'm into eagles, per se.
As Class VI members have known for a while, RapidMan has officially "been retired" as they say in New Jersey. Hopefully the forewarning makes the news that much more bearable.
Hmmmm, bearable. Do I smell another mascot coming soon?
Check out the Rocky Mountain Arsenal website to see what other possibilities are in store for mascots. And don't you dare call them buffalo! Check their photo gallery for more wildlife found on the world's largest urban wildlife refuge (around 300 species).
