I love the Phanatic. He can make you laugh and cheer even when our team is getting their asses handed to them on the field. By far THE greatest mascot ever in any sport, no contest.
part of the Phanatic's appeal is the costume design, but without finding the right people to put inside the costume, the Phanatic would have been a flop. hats off to Dave Raymond and Tom Burgoyne, the two men who brought the greatest mascot in all of sports to life
I can guarantee that, when it is eventually Dave Raymond's time to go, by the time he reaches the Pearly Gates, there will be good ol' Tommy Lasorda standing there with a Louisville Slugger and a wide grin on his face saying "Ready for the next inning, big boy?!"
@@RandallBalls because Philly is so warm and energetic. And normally brown persons have more facial and fysical expression. It's meant as a compliment, if I call someones voice "brown", it's a real warm voice
I would have to say that the Phillie Phanatic looks more like a cross between an Aardvark and a Duck of course I could be wrong. But I love the guy who does the job. He's really something else. For someone who can make children happy and has the ability to make people laugh and enjoy themselves the way he does is absolutely fantastic. PHILLIE PHANATIC KEEP THEM LAUGHING DUDE. Because laughter is and always will be the best medicine in the world. Also it takes a great deal of time to make people laugh. With the antics that you do for the children and the people who admire what you are doing. You are in one word, "MAGNIFICENT."
My dad worked at mat slap Chevrolet in the late 70s the Phillie Phanatic was hired for an appearance in the show room. I was about eight years old me, and all my friends were cheering the fanatic as he was jumping up and down on hoods and roofs of brand, new cars, and the salesman were screaming their heads off while we were laughing, not thinking of the damage she did. Just having a great time.
The Phanatic is so awesome that he can compete with the team. And he’s so unpredictable that I can’t look away. And when he does his signature moves I can never get enough. Best mascot ever
I'm not a Philadelphia Phillies fan but I'd come to a game just to watch The Fanatic goofing around on the field w/the players and interacting with the fans. . I've always thought that Tommy Lasorda and the Philly Phanatic had a love-hate relationship I'm sure Tommy was having fun with the Phanatic the day he got his uniform back then bashed the Phanatic with it
Yeah for sure they had a friendly love/hate dynamic lol Lasorda is from the Philadelphia area so he always loved coming to Philly... The Phanatic is without a doubt the best, most entertaining mascot in all of sports but there were times when Tommy wasn't in the mood for his shenanigans lol which made it even funnier
Philadelphia fans are known by their mild manners and courteous ways. The phanatic is of course the embodiment of that therefore the most entertaining mascot in baseball. 😂😂
I hate baseball, at least watching it.. it's so incredibly boring, it's only topped by golf and women's sports in that regard. BUT I love the Phanatic and Orbit. They really are the only reason to watch, especially when they are doing messed up stuff.
FANS: Don't be angry... its the truth... when u have a court of law at the stadium to convict patrons... folks ummmmm ur out of control...come on your smart people... u have families and jobs.... stop the crazy.... really
Johnny Rotten- typical person that i guarantee has never been to Philadelphia let alone any of our stadiums. find a stadium in Philadelphia with a courtroom, go ahead, we'll wait. just like the snowball and Santa incident, (1968- fifty years ago) that is the old days. and having been to dozens of stadiums around the country and seeing other teams fans, Philly fans are not that different from other teams fans. and besides, the courtroom was for Eagles games, this is a video about the Phanatic, the Phillies mascot.
Best mascot in sports history
FaZe ZJ I like orbit
@@msZarajerusalem4166 same but, phanatic is better
@@InvaderNova it looks like Philadelphia has the best mascots I mean they have gritty who is like the phanatic and the one and only phanatic
@@blakethephillyphan4019 - if the sixers bring back Big Shot its over 😂
I love Orbit and Phanatic equally!

Agreed. No contest.

Before seeing this video, I was convinced there was a brown male inside 😂
@@mirjambotman5652 why? That's weird...
@@RandallBalls because Philly is so warm and energetic. And normally brown persons have more facial and fysical expression. It's meant as a compliment, if I call someones voice "brown", it's a real warm voice
Im so proud we have the Phanatic. “Its” a Philly treasure, an institution. ❤️
Go Phils!
For those who don't know Dave Raymond is the son of Tubby Raymond who was an outstanding football coach for the University of Delaware.

I'm Glade to be living in Philadelphia and be a Phillies fan. I get to enjoy the Phanatic
Im glaid you fail that way it makes me habby
Never in the field of ballpark entertainment has one mascot given so much enjoyment to so many.
I'm a huge Cubs fan and will be until I die, but I love the Phanatic! I'd love to see him come to a Wrigley Field game!
I LOVE PHILLIE PHANATIC

I am NOT a Phillies fan, but how can you not love the Phanatic ?
“I don’t think the phanatic is going away” One 2020 lawsuit later
Go Phanatic!! #Phillies
I'm from Wisconsin and I really love the Phanatic 👍🏻😊.
The Phanatic makes grown ass men feel like kids again.
💯

THE PHILLIE PHANATIC IS THE BEST MASCOT IN ALL OF SPORTS PERIOD!!!
Always entertaining
Bravo!!!
My fave team is The Texas Rangers but I love the Phillie Phanatic
I never knew he was a Muppet. Bless him.
I’m a Dodger fan and I love the Phanathic!
That was fun.....😁
Ha I love the phanatic I had no idea it was Henson. Holy shit !!
I saw Mike Schimt and Ryne Sanburg play in Wrigley Field in 1986 for my graduation present from my grand parents
MY FAR the best mascot in storks history
I'm not a Philadelphia Phillies fan but I'd come to a game just to watch The Fanatic goofing around on the field w/the players and interacting with the fans.

What about those hot days in the summer? The heat inside that costume it will be intense. Hard work.
Ohio born, die hard fan of the Cleveland Indians. But I have to say I have fallen in love with the Phanatic. Sorry Slider
Slider was inspired by the Phanatic! Without the Phanitic, there would be no Slider.
I love him.
bro you're not going to talk about the time when Lonnie Smith literally broke the Fanatics ankles
When I'm down I watch the phanatic.
I love his big belly!! LOL
Kinda want to know what came first the kc wolf or him? Both have big belly’s shoes are close.. but the head is different
Phanatic came right after the San Diego chicken. Wolf wasn't even an idea.
Phanactic forever
Knowing that Phanatic is a muppet explains everything.
Philadelphia fans are known by their mild manners and courteous ways. The phanatic is of course the embodiment of that therefore the most entertaining mascot in baseball. 😂😂
There is no better definition of an American than a pilgrim.
It's pretty hard to be miserable when he shows up, that's gotta be a very difficult but rewarding job.

I believe I’m the only person in this comment section who’s hugged the phanatic
Wrong
Nope !!
Wrong
Now the Phillies know to GET THE COPYRIGHT so we don't have to mess with the costume in lawsuit
Scott cawthon took the name Mike Schmidt from five nights at Freddy's 😜
PizzaSteve X420 I know I always thought that
I always wondered if he was a Phillies fan
Hmmm?
9:00 didnt the phanatic destroy this room
Why you not talk about Lonnie smith?
well said!
Everyone loves the phanatic, he's the mascot of the mascots. I wish the phanatic was a real animal and not some guy in a costume.

Ew your pf pic
Galapagos Gang?
Oh yeah yeah

Why do people think flicking a lighted cigarette is funny.
Tommy Lasorda was always to full of himself, no sense of humor. Sucked as a pitcher with 6.48 ERA in just 4 games.
It's a family outing, why do mascots think it's funny to be crude. Tommy Lasorda was a mess, so full of himself
Had to ruin at the end mentioning bill giles relationship to the racist piece of shit branch rickey
FANS: Don't be angry... its the truth... when u have a court of law at the stadium to convict patrons... folks ummmmm ur out of control...come on your smart people... u have families and jobs.... stop the crazy.... really

Johnny Rotten that was the old stadium. None of the facilities have that now.
