PA Folks, you really going to start the season like this?

Your Flyers mascot, Gritty, isn't going to work. The idea is to connect with children, and give everyone someone they can love...

Take a page out of Carlton the bear's book

Go LEAFS!

I'm a die hard TML fan. But I actually like Gritty. I think he looks like a mix of grimace and animal from the Muppets.

Go Leafs Go!!!

This is the dude the Leafs bring out when they need to scare kids

Gritty looks like he should be on duck dynasty
Carlton obviously has charisma charm and good looks

They would've been better with the menacing clown look than "Gritty". At least that's a "something" as opposed to a "what's that!" Being a W. PA native with friends from that area I've sometimes jokingly said, "And that's why there's mountains in the middle of the state."
