Super Ape Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 You know Gritty’s watching old ECW tapes trying to figure out how to incorporate Sandman and New Jack shtick into his act. Picture this: Two minutes left in the 3rd period, Penguins up by one, when suddenly Natural Born Killaz starts blasting through the Wells Fargo Center and Gritty just strolls onto the rink with a laundry cart full of broken electronics and cheap guitars and just murders everyone. You KNOW you want it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 He tweeted a death threat at the Pens account his first day on the job. Gritty isn't the hero we all need, he's the hero we all deserve! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ape Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Honestly, if you’re going to incorporate a new mascot in Philadelphia, at least he’s a complement to the Phanatic’s warm, fun-loving demeanor; a disheveled, violent psychopath. Dude’s going to hold T-shirt guns at opposing goalies’ heads like Ralph Fiennes in Schindler’s List before long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to design my own "Gritty 2020" shirt on CafePress and make fuck you money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's basically the mascot version of Sharknado times 100 in that it's so ridiculous and absurd it became a pop culture phenomenon. Gritty is literally giving me the will to live.

Dolfan in NYC Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Since it's not verified yet, I can only hope this is some insane stalker Flyers fan who has dedicated his life to this mascot and has already tattooed this image all over his chest.

Philadelphians. Best description I've seen so far is it looks like Animal from the Muppets was cast as the Babadook. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I've never had any desire to travel to a Flyers game, but I'm not going to be satisfied with my life until I get a picture of myself hugging Gritty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally the first thing I am going to ask the guy at the gate when I enter WFC for the first time this season is "Where the hell can I meet Gritty???". I want him and Hunter to team up and do a North American tour with GWAR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy who murdered my team is gone and it is what it is. I tweeted at both Dundon and the team that a great gesture would be to donate a portion of the proceed from sales of the Whalers jersey to the Connecticut Children's Hospital (formerly UCONN Children's Hospital) as that was the Whalers official charity.
