Nobody likes a wedding crasher — unless that crasher is Philadelphia Flyers mascot and hero of the Weird Internet, Gritty.

On Friday, photos and videos surfaced from a wedding in Philadelphia where the Great Orange One appears to have dropped in unannounced to the utter delight to everyone involved.

Baseball Culture Japan Mascots The Mysterious Fish

Delightful Japanese mascot has its own special use for the baggage claim

sudshr47 April 3, 2018

Wacky mascots need to travel too.

The Mysterious Fish, mascot of Japanese baseball team, the Chiba Lotte Marines, landed at the Honolulu Airport over the weekend. Thankfully, it was not hounded by the paparazzi and was able to procure its body from the baggage claim and slip right back inside of it.

It must have been too big for a carry on.

Some people are just content to live. But some won’t others until they can wear a giant fried food costume at a football game.

Every year on Jan. 1 Outback Steakhouse sponsors the Outback Bowl, a big college football game that also features a bizarre fried mascot: a Bloomin’ Onion, just like the one you can find on the steakhouse’s menu.

Ryan Nanni, a contributor for SB Nation, announced at the beginning of this year that he was on a quest to don the fried onion costume for the big game.
