TIDBITS® CHEERS ON SOME

FAVORITE MASCOTS

by Kathy Wolfe What’s the mascot for your favorite sports team? This week, Tidbits explores the origin of mascots and passes along some info on some of our favorites, as well as the unusual and unknown. • The word “mascot” has its beginnings in France, with the first recorded use of the French word “mascotte” which translates “lucky charm,” in 1867. Earlier derivations of the word meant “witchcraft, charm, or amulet.” In the mid-19th century, mascottes might have been a lock of hair or a talisman, similar to a rabbit’s foot. • As high school and college sports grew in popularity, schools used mascots to distinguish and set apart their team on the field. In the 1800s, mascots were actually live animals. Professional sports teams didn’t begin using mascots until the 1960s. The New York Mets were the first team to debut a mascot, Mr. Met, a man with a giant baseball for a head, who made his debut in 1962 at the Polo Grounds, the Mets’ stadium at the time. The Mets’ farm team, the Brooklyn Cyclones, have their own mascot, Sandy the Seagull. Turn the page for more!

MASCOTS (cont'd):

• The San Diego Chicken made his debut in 1974, but not at a Padres game. The chicken first made appearances at the San Diego Zoo, concerts, and other sporting events before first performing at the Padres stadium in 1977. A 20-year-old college student named Ted Giannoulas first donned the suit at the Zoo for $2 an hour, and is still playing the part. This fowl character doesn’t limit his appearances to Padres games, but works independently around the world, having made more than 17,000 appearances, with 8,500 of them at sporting events in 917 different arenas in all 50 states, four continents, and eight countries. Giannoulas has worn out more than 100 chicken suits. • The Philadelphia Phillies introduced the Phillie Phanatic in 1978, a furry green creature designed by puppeteers who had done work for Jim Henson. The Phanatic can be seen on the roof of the Phillies dugout at the seven-and-a-half inning stretch, performing The Phanatic Dance. He also shoots hot dogs into the stands using a pneumatic gun. • According to legend, Wally the Green Monster, the furry mascot of MLB’s Boston Red Sox, lived within the Green Monster wall from 1947 (the year the wall was painted green) until he emerged from inside in 1997. Named for the 37ft., 2-inch left field wall at Fenway Park, Wally wears Red Sox jersey No. 97, the year he emerged from the Wall. • The only “human” mascot in all four major North American sports cheers on the Minnesota Vikings. Ragnar the Viking exits the tunnel on his motorcycle, wearing his Norse attire. It may well be that Ragnar will be retired soon as Joe Juranitch, who has played the part for 21 years, has asked for a rather large increase in pay, from $1,500 per game in the 2015 season to a hefty $20,000 per game.

WHOLESALE FIREWORKS DELIVERED TO YOUR HOME! Have you made that expensive road trip to an Iowa border to buy fireworks and later discovered you actually purchased plenty of disappointment? Firework vendors near our borders are designed to fleece Iowans with shoddy product and high prices. Now you can order from the comfort of your home and I GUARANTEE SATISFACTION. If you would like a copy of our catalog and the opportunity to view a huge sample container of our products, call the number below. We can meet in Cedar Rapids or set an appointment for me to visit your home. This is 100% legal as an Iowa citizen is allowed to possess any consumer firework however, the samples I carry are not for sale. Fireworks purchased will be shipped from another state and are transported as heavy freight by truck. A local trucking company promises delivery within 48 hours. All of our products are name brand and high quality so performance is easy to view on YouTube. Then Google 'fireworks for sale' to check our prices. Wholesale fireworks usually means full cases but we allow you to select individual items and define wholesale in terms of dollars spent using some minimum amount. We've discussed $200 but it is important to note that larger buyers may qualify for free shipping. We also offer assistance in obtaining your fireworks permit. Once you buy from us, you will never shop anywhere else. I have that much confidence in our products.

MASCOTS (cont'd):

• NFL’s Tennessee Titans chose their state animal as the mascot of their team. T-Rac is a raccoon who dresses in Titan garb and has frequently zip-lined into Nashville’s Nissan Stadium to cheer on the team. • Four NFL teams have no mascot – the New York Giants, the New York Jets, Oakland Raiders, and the Green Packers, although thousands of Packers fans don cheeseheads for their team’s games. The most recent team to add a mascot was the St. Louis Rams, who added Rampage in 2010. Rampage will be on the move back to Los Angeles for the 2016 season. • Three Major League Baseball teams also have no mascot – the Angels, the Dodgers, and the Yankees. • Detroit Red Wings hockey fans have been throwing octopuses onto the ice since 1952, when two brothers who owned a fish market did it for the first time. The eight tentacles of this cephalopod represent the eight wins it took to win the Stanley Cup at that time. (It now takes 16 wins.) When the Wings scored a perfect eight, the octopus became the official mascot, named Al after their arena building operations manager Al Sobotka. Al has been updated a few times, including the removal of a tooth so that he had a “hockey player” look, as well as the addition of a Red Wings jersey to his body. And what is Al’s jersey number? Why, 8, of course! • Bailey the Lion is the mascot of hockey’s Los Angeles Kings, named in honor of the team’s Director of Pro Scouting, Ace Bailey, who was killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Prior to Bailey’s reign, the Kings had a snow leopard named Kingston. Bailey wears the No. 72 jersey, not as a tribute to any Kings player, but because that’s the average annual temperature in Los Angeles. Turn to next page! Q: What school has the most outrageous mascot (The Fighting Pickles) in college sports? A: North Carolina School of Arts

• Each time the Olympics are held, the mascot symbolizes the host city. In 1968, Grenoble, France was the first city to have a mascot for the Winter Olympics, a little man on skis named Schuss. The 1972 Munich Olympics featured a dachshund named Waldi, and the 1984 Los Angeles Summer Games introduced a bald eagle named Sam. The first Olympic mascot couple appeared at Calgary’s 1988 Winter Games. Hidy and Howdy were polar bears chosen after a contest sponsored by the Calgary Zoo brought in 7,000 entries. Most recently, the Sochi, Russia Olympics featured three mascots, a hare, a polar bear, and a leopard, symbolic of the three places on the Olympic podium. • Although mascots contribute to entertainment, enthusiasm, and team spirit, they are also the source of multimillion dollar income for a team in sales of souvenirs and team-related merchandise. • Exceptional mascots are inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame, created in 2005 by the original Phillie Phanatic. Originally an online-only organization, the city of Whiting, Indiana, agreed to construct a permanent Mascot Hall of Fame on the shores of Lake Michigan. Only mascots in place for at least 10 years are eligible for induction. Inductees include Mr. Met, Rocky of the Denver Nuggets, the Phoenix Suns Gorilla, Jazz Bear of the Utah Jazz, the San Diego Chicken, and, of course, the Phillie Phanatic. • Do you have a hankering to become a team mascot? San Antonio, Texas, is home to a Professional Mascot School, where for $250, you can learn the essentials of being a pro mascot.

by Samantha Weaver * It was award-winning Canadian novelist, poet and literary critic Margaret Atwood who made the following sage observation: “War is what happens when language fails.” * Many people don’t realize that the parachute was invented before the airplane. The first person to use a parachute and survive was LouisSebastien Lenormand, who jumped off the tower of the Montpelier Observatory in 1783. * If you’re planning to take a cruise this summer, try to remember to use your right foot when you take your first step aboard; it’s considered bad luck to step aboard with your left foot.

• Scottsdale, Arizona Community College’s athletic teams have a rather unique team name, the Fighting Artichokes. The college, which opened in 1970, was without a mascot for its first two years. There was a little animosity between the administration and the student body over distribution of scholarship money. Consequently, students put three suggestions on the ballot for the team – the Scoundrels, the Rutabagas, and the Artichokes. Put to a vote, the Artichokes won out. • Another team with an edible mascot name is the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, located in Winston-Salem. The Fighting Pickles was the name selected by the student body in 2010, and in 2012, it was named the “Cheesiest College Mascot.” • Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Virginia proudly calls their team the Fighting Squirrels. The school was established in 1842 as the Augusta Female Seminary, and was a very state-of-the-art school during the Civil War Years. Mary Julia Baldwin was one of the Seminary’s first students, and became its principal in 1863, where she remained for the next 34 years. The school was renamed in her honor, and because the squirrel was the central figure in her family crest, it became the school’s mascot. • Eighteen different varsity teams at Texas Christian University are known as the Horned Frogs. In 1897, the year the team was named, the school was known as AddRan Christian University. The name came about because of “the abundance of those creatures around campus.” The name was changed to TCU in 1902, but the mascot remained the same. • Attend a game at Louisiana State University and you can catch a glimpse of Mike, a live Bengal tiger, the school’s mascot. The current Mike is the sixth tiger in the mascot’s history and is a Siberian-Bengal mix weighing over 450 lbs., but expected to reach 600 lbs. by full adulthood. The first Mike was really named Sheik, and was purchased in 1935 from the Little Rock, Arkansas Zoo for $750, with funds raised by collecting a quarter from every LSU student. He lived 20 years. Mike VI (whose name is actually Roscoe) lives in a $3 million, 15,000 sq-ft. habitat created especially for the school’s mascot, which includes a waterfall, a stream, a pond, abundant greenery, and rocky mesas. During home games, opposing teams must pass by Mike’s cage-on-wheels, which is always situated by the locker room.

1965. Two of the school’s water polo players were great fans of the Johnny Hart comic strip “B.C.”, which made its newspaper debut in 1958. The prehistoric cartoon featured an anteater who snatched up ants with a “Zot!” sound. Today, “Zot!” is the university’s warcry at college sporting events, and their mascot is named Peter the Anteater.

• In 1953, Ohio’s University of Akron chose Zippy the kangaroo as their school mascot. The name wasn’t chosen because the animal zips around, but as an abbreviated form of “Zippers,” used to refer to a pair of rubber overshoes manufactured by the city’s BF Goodrich Company. Although the team has been known as the Zips since 1925, Zippy didn’t come along until 28 years later.

Senior News Line Let’s Talk About Driving (Part 2) Nearly 90% of aging adults rely on their cars and driving to stay independent, according to the survey. Though many seniors 70 and older are able to drive safely into their later years, it is critical for families to have a plan in place before a medical or cognitive condition makes it no longer safe for thier senior loved one to get behind the wheel.

10 Warning Signs that Seniors May Be Unsafe Drivers On the Road 1. Mysterious dents. If an older adult can’t explain what happened to his or her car, or you notice multiple instances of damage, further investigation is needed to understand if there’s been a change in the senior’s driving abilities. 2. Trouble turning to see when backing up. Aging may compromise mobility and impact important movements needed to drive safely. Fortunately, newer vehicles offer back-up cameras and assistive technologies that can help older adults continue to drive safely. 3. Confusing the gas and brake pedals. Dementia can lead to a senior being confused about how his or her car operates. 4. Increased irritation and agitation when driving. Poor health or chronic pain can trigger increased agitation that may, in turn, lead to poor judgment on the road. 5. Bad calls on left-hand turns. Turning left can be tricky and dangerous for older drivers, and many accidents occur where there is an unprotected left turn (no turning arrow). 6. Parking gone awry. Difficulty parking, including parallel parking, could cause damage to an older adult’s vehicle as well as to those around it. 7. Difficulty staying within the lanes. If you’ve spotted a driver zigzagging along the road, it could be a sign that fatigue or vision problems are making it difficult to stay on course. 8. Delayed reaction and response time. Aging slows response times which may create a situation where an older adult may cause an accident or be unable to respond quickly enough to prevent a crash. 9. Driving the wrong speed. Driving too fast or too slow may be indicators that a driver’s judgment may be impaired. 10. Riding the brake. Riding the brake could be a sign that a driver no longer has confidence in his or her skills. Home Instead Senior Care network has launched a new public education program: “Let’s Talk About Driving”, available at: LetsTalkAboutDriving.com. The new program offers free resources and tips to help families build a roadmap, together with their senior loved one, for limiting or stopping driving when the time is right. These resources include an interactive Safe Driving Planner to help families assess their senior loved one’s driving habits and provide tools to help older adults drive safely, consider options for driving reduction or cessation, and identify alternative transportation options.

PAW’S CORNER By Sam Mazzotta

June Is Adopt a Cat Month

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’ll never forget the first cat I ever brought home. “Two Socks” was a shelter cat who had been adopted by a college friend. For reasons I won’t go into, my friend was unable to keep him and figured this out about two weeks after adopting him from the local shelter. He was about a year old then, very shy and skittish, but also super curious about everything. My friend asked if I’d like to keep Two Socks, and even though I had never owned a cat before and I would have to dredge up a pet fee to keep him in my apartment, I said yes. I didn’t regret it one bit. Two Socks had personality to spare. Over time he was joined by two more cats, “Chewy” and “Belle,” but he ruled the apartment despite his shy nature. Two Socks lived to be about 14 and eventually passed away after a long illness. You never forget your first pet. I only regret that I didn’t get to keep pets when I was younger, but I’m making up for it now thanks to that little black-and-white cat. -- Kathy in Des Moines, Iowa DEAR KATHY: Pets really can change our lives for the better, can’t they? Your story is apropos, considering that June is Adopt a Cat Month. Readers, if you’ve been thinking about adding a new member to your family, consider visiting your local shelter or learning more about what it takes to adopt a cat, with tips and information, at www.petfinder.com/cats. Readers, send in your memories of the day your cat joined the family by emailing ask@pawscorner.com. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

NOW HERE’S A TIP By JoAnn Derson

--* Use Velcro or a bungee cord to attach kids’ bubble containers to a porch post. Or bury them halfway into a flowerpot filled with sand. The kids can dip the bubble wands to their heart’s content, but are less likely to spill the container of bubble juice. * PVC pipe is so easy to work with for many creations beyond piping. For instance, you can look up free instructions to construct a drying rack for your towels to go pool side. Simply go to your internet search engine and enter “PVC towel rack DIY.” * “An old dish-drying rack can be used to organize the lids to your plastic storage containers.” -- T.C. in Montana

* “Here’s a neat trick to keep your bathroom smelling sweet with little effort: Add a few drops of a pleasant essential oil to the cardboard tube of your toilet paper. Every time the roll ‘rolls,’ it’ll give off the scent. And it’s easily refreshed with each new roll.” -- R.D. in New Mexico * Use a zip-up delicates bag to clean small toys in the washing machine.
