A special by C. Ray Hall on the origin story here, photo journal of iconic images here, legendary coaches here, epic comebacks here. Just tons of great stuff, kudos to the CJ staff.
However, I'm not sure I'll ever be able to get this image of the Cardinal mascot out of my nightmares. The hauntingly bulbous eyes are enough to chill Edgar Allan Poe, but it's the jacket and bow-tie that really send it to another level. He's psychotic, but he's proper.
Did children run screaming from this thing in the '50s?
Put a meat cleaver in the left hand and I can work with this.
ReplyDeleteWow that is weird looking. Everyone knows Cardinals have teeth!
ReplyDeleteSomeone obviously must resurrect this Cardinal mascot as some point this season!
ReplyDeleteA-"Did you see that guys balls?"
ReplyDeleteB-"Yeah, they were weird..."
Another disturbing aspect to this photo.
DeleteThis thing needs to be recreated and stationed next to the opponents' bench during every single home game. It should do nothing but breathe and stare. Breathe... Stare... Breathe... Stare...
