Did they stop doing what they did cause the Canucks started sucking for the last 10 years? Or got too old for their acrobatic antics? I thought they might have officially retired maybe? I wouldn't mind the occasional appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSVII Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Been to a few games during the dark times including the jersey toss game and the poor guy put up with a lot of hecklers from the crowd when he tried to get them excited about the team when it was horribad. He deserves every moment of hype and fun this season . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-dlc- Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Used to love Crazy George way back when with the Lions. Not so much with Crazy P...I find him way too much. Great that he gets the crowd going....just please not too close to me. Especially the 7 Nations Army thing...so overdone and stale. Maybe if he came up with some new ideas. I find it distracting, especially if it's nearing the end of a close game. Drunk people not even caring about what's happening on the ice. I get it...and overall it's probably a good thing. But just not for me. I do get a giggle out of the t shirt guy though (ripping off the tearaway pants deal). His energy's not so loud and in your face. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were at the last game. At least there were green men there, not sure if they were "the" green men. I loved them, they were hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy George, at least to me (others might feel different) seemed more natural and/organic in his own nutty way heh. Don't like or dislike Crazy P. More like neutral. They just seem more "manufacturered" but that just be me in my old cynical ways today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll yell and be loud based on the hockey that's going on, not the "show" around the hockey game. The perfect Rogers Arena attendee circa 2015-2017.

Edit: bonus points if you wear a suit Haha, most of the suits aren't even watching the game. I'm as stoic as a statue until we score or a great play happens and I go nuts. I just need a good hockey reason to make noise instead of some jumbotron message inciting me to make noise. I'll cheer louder for a good clear on the PK than "Make some noise". 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were insinuating that you only cheered for goals and fights and such lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futurefilm Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 He used to annoy me when i was kid but ive warmed up to him. He get's the crowd going which is always good. He seems more popular at lions games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucklehead44 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Don’t like him. Feels so forced and fake and it’s very repetitive. Rather have Fin banging the drum at least he is a real mascot and not a fake fan mascot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
