Big-eyed mascots

For forever now I've loved the Cincinnati Reds' mascot Mr. RedLegs. He's got a huge moustache and hilariously huge blank eyes. I finally got to meet this weekend, wahooo! 


Arlene and I went to a Mascot Homerun Derby on Saturday. {Lydia couldn't go because she had baseball practice! She's playing ball this summer - first game in a few weeks!} The Mascot Derby was so HILARIOUS! I find mascots, especially the Reds mascots, to be so incredibly hilarious. I giggle whenever I see them. I think it's their huge heads and huge eyes.

Rosie Red sure is a cutie! 

The furry mascot is Gapper.


During the Derby (we were in the dugout, hence the fence). This guy's name is Mr. Red. Basically the same as Mr.RedLegs but without the 'stache. He won the Derby! I think he could see the best - the other mascots had a hard time seeing the ball through their monstrous heads.

Look at Mr.RedLegs! HAAAAA!
