Well dang, the beautiful people over at MLB beat us to it. After watching us morons, check out their video about this that's all proper and pretty and full of good information instead of stuff like "birds aren't real." th-cam.com/video/CEY8n4cDekA/w-d-xo.html
Judging by how quickly you commented this after uploading, I'd say yall knew about their video. I wouldn't want them just rehashing your ideas within the week. Original content please.
Well dang, this also isn't even the first video this week I've watched about someone's experience in mascot costume (DigiValentine). What am I doing with my life...
@@matthewdaley746 We care about all sports, it's just hockey produces the only real diehards because its the one sport where there's more than just a Toronto team, and I'm saying that as a guy who's from Toronto
@@TheBrainSpecialist Of course being from Toronto you forget about Canadian Football, where there are 8 other Canadian teams. CFL is actually the second most popular team sport in much of the country, especially in western Canada. Where I am, no one cares about basketball. I didn't even know that the Raptors were in the playoffs until the second or third round.
Joshua Kline Whenever I really need to laugh, I always pull up a few Lasorda rants. They’re legendary. His rant about Kurt Bevacqua will always be my favorite.
Every half episode of That's Weird needs to be just Kofie sharing his adventures as a biracial eagle mascot. I'm sorry, I don't make the (weird) rules.
So....I was a mascot....for my highschool. We were the Cardinals! I was a freak bird. I know the feeling! No line of sight, the head fan broke, so sweat everywhere. I was able to do a few cartwheels in the suit though. Fun times.
I was at a Padres game at Jack Murphy Stadium and Tommy was coaching third base for the Dodgers for some reason like the normal coach was sick. They announced him and the whole stadium booed. He politely turned to the stands, took off his hat and bowed.
I was the mascot for my high school's homecoming game my senior year. It's a weird mix of fun and nearly passing out cause it gets hot in those suits. It's also exactly like how Kofie describes it
Alright so I've been trying to figure out why this style of video is entertaining and I think I got it. We as sports fans dream of these conversations where you say something your friends don't know and they're extremely interested about it. It never happens, it never will happen, and its a shame we have to live it out through this fantasy
I've been to a 9 inning game that ended 1-0. I wanted to fall asleep there, so I definitely don't blame the mascot for pulling out a night cap and gown for a 22 inning game with the same score!
Aluminum - because they couldn't get enough tin, or make it out of an ACTUAL drum ;-) Also, Tommy Lasorda was a wizard on "The Baseball Bunch" in the 80's. -Shawn
Lasorda was awesome! His nickname was the Ambassador of Baseball and a lot of people became baseball fans because of his enthusiasm and love for the game. The events with the mascots were tongue and cheek, and put on like skits with really bad acting. Lol
Rewinder video in the 2009 week 11 game between the Browns and the Lions. Not only does in have an epic finish the game itself was extraordinary. The game was also meaningless and important at the same time.

@@chiefpacman it takes them more than a week to make these, they were probably far into editing when the other video came out before theirs.
At least you're owning it. 😎
@@chiefpacman It's flattering you think we can turn this around in under a week. Thanks chief!
Well dang, this also isn't even the first video this week I've watched about someone's experience in mascot costume (DigiValentine). What am I doing with my life...
I didn't mean to scare the kids 😭
You're a mascot from the fumble dimension
Doing Big Things Chief💯
I've been a mascot too but from what I can tell my experience was a bit better than yours
This is on my gravestone
You are awesome
It comforts me as an Expos fan that people still look fondly at Youppi.
Troispoint you’re favorite team doesn’t exist anymore. R.I.P.
At least he's with the Canadians now
He was the only good thing about the Expos
@@brianstryker4536 The only bad thing about the Expos was the Olympic Stadium lol
@@gupoll rude
So Lasorda literally choked the chicken.
in public no less.
@@themandan4000 I don't even know how he didn't get arrested.
thats funny dude, should have got a room
and it didnt work lol
LASORDA LEGEND
After the Expos left, Youppi! is now the mascot of the Canadiens.
@@matthewdaley746 Canada will care about any sport that we have a winning team in.
@@ibefullofme Well Expos should have won but were robbed due to the strike. Team was so stacked.

So that’s why Habs haven’t won a Stanley Cup since ‘92-‘93...
Those stories about mascots were all great. Thank you to Kofie for sharing.
I love the reaction of: "Which mascot got kicked out?"
"Youppi."
"NO!"
The irony of the guy not knowing French wearing a shirt with French on it 😂
The irony of being on a sports channel and not knowing that sports are a universal language.
Daniel Watts why does it matter? how many people have japanese text tattoos and don’t speak japanese? he’s dripping that’s all you need to know 🔥
@@mlkeys if you get a tattoo and you don’t know what it means, you’re an idiot.
je m'en suis aperçu
@@mlkeys Yeah. Those people are weebs and don't get talked to
One of the best things about the Kofie part is Seth sitting so politely just letting the madness unfold and just smiling through it.
There’s an ungodly amount of exposed socks in this video
There white Socks fans
Derek Alford every video has that. It's a thing I guess
Flood warnings
These guys are such herbs.
This is what men look like now huh......
Give Kofie his own show just for "Birds aren't real anyway"
The Dude Fumble Dimension 😉
The Dude What did he even mean?
New England Views birds aren’t real
The birds work for the bourgeoisie.
They're not. All the birds were replaced by robotic spy drones during the Reagan administration
I need the Chase Utley Mets Beef History asap, SBNation.
Utley broke Ruben Tejada's leg with a dirty slide in the 2015 NLDS, and effective ended his career.
That was just carryover from the Jimmy Rollins/Mets beef anyhow.
MstrChamberlain5 can’t really call it a beef when Utley dominated the Muts for nearly a decade
mb1213 Don’t tell me you’re a Phillies fan... I feel so bad you have my condolences
@William Day He was aiming right at Tejada's leg, well away from the base. Dirty af....
Tommy Lasorda was pretty much the Suge Knight of Major League Baseball lol
You know nothing about Suge
He choked his chicken!
He’s an awful person
🤣
im a young ceo suge
Tommy Lasorda's great media rants are somethings that never get old.
Joshua Kline Whenever I really need to laugh, I always pull up a few Lasorda rants. They’re legendary. His rant about Kurt Bevacqua will always be my favorite.
@Skippy the Alien Not to mention the Kingman rant, or, the Nose rant.
Thanks for the point, checking now
I have this idea that everyone in the office thinks that Jon Bois is a furry.
I like this idea, all my friends agree with it, even Jon.
"The famous chicken..."
"...The San Diego chicken."
THANK YOU for that correction. It is SD's chicken.

@@JameAndy-be1pv damn after 7 months I still can’t find who asked
I like how the phillys are prepared for the phanatic to get thrown out, so they have a couple of backups on call
The talons on an eagle costume would be the feet. The hands/arms would be the wings.
Just went to a Habs game this year where they celebrated Youppi's 40th birthday
Fun fact about Tommy Lasorda; he completely disowned his son when he came out as gay and continued to disown him until his death. Great guy.
seabrook1976 I think Lasorda loved him. He just didn’t accept that he was gay or how he died.
That wasn't a fun fact at all :c
@@bigdinlaca Thats not love then.
Emily Nobody can tell what love is

Hey! I kinda know that guy at the end, he is "not Jon Bois"
Nice to see you again
8:30 Logic’s new album, Biracial Eagle, in stores now
So....I was a mascot....for my highschool. We were the Cardinals! I was a freak bird. I know the feeling!
No line of sight, the head fan broke, so sweat everywhere.
I was able to do a few cartwheels in the suit though. Fun times.
Imagine being the second string mascot
Seth's face when Will says it was Youppi! who was ejected is 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like Tommy Lasorda goes home at night, takes off his mask and becomes Bobby Knight
the last time i was this early Bob was still a popular name in sports
Youppi was designed by Bonnie Erickson, who also designed the Phanatic, and also Miss Piggy.
The biggest troll in baseball history
Youpie’s mastery of annoyance and trolling almost makes me want to be a mascot
Tommy Lasorda is the closest thing we have to a mascot! 😂😂
Hahahaha Kofie’s story at the end got me rollin! Great video all around
This is actually really chill and extemporaneous. The vibes are good and the animations are lit. I like this change up.
👌✌️
i like the aesthetic of "just apple boxes"
Also coincidentally this was also the longest game in the Expos entire history
RIP Tommy, had to come watch this again this morning.
Rest well mr.tommy, literally was watching this like yesterday, can’t believe it
RIP Legend, and screw the haters!
I'm loving the banter in this series! It's the best
I always keep my laptop on top of three hastily-stacked wooden crates too!
"Birds aren't real anyway." My main takeaway of this video.
This. Was. Brilliant.
SB Nation rocks!
I love these guys, and (of course) the legend, Jon Bois!
I’m a simple man. When I see the notification for SB Nation I click it, no questions asked.
Tommy Lasorda is a national treasure.
Someone should do "the creation of SB nation deserves a deep rewind"
Oh I miss the Montreal Expos so much
as legendary as he was, tommy always forgot one thing: he was coaching a bunch of grown-ass men who were playing a *game*
Makes me think a little of the time that Harvey the Hound (NHL) lost his tongue.
Craig MacTavish tore it right out.
Kofie Yeboah is a national treasure.
Anyone else a big fan of Kofi’s voice? Super soothing
My dude literally choked the chicken😂
Can you please do a rewinder on the 2014 world cup match between Germany and Brazil
Showing rape is against TH-cam's community guidelines so I doubt it.
i definitely would love to see a breakdown of that COLLAPSE
Where’s the “Moment in history”
And then the bounce back for Brazil to beat Germany to win the 2016 olympics gold medal
PrimeNBA a soccer gold medal is something nobody gives a damn about😂😂😂. So they definetely not got revenge
how to look even nerdier: sit on the most awkward couch eva
I was at a Padres game at Jack Murphy Stadium and Tommy was coaching third base for the Dodgers for some reason like the normal coach was sick. They announced him and the whole stadium booed. He politely turned to the stands, took off his hat and bowed.
Honestly R.I.P. to a great manager.
"Tommy got into a fight with the Philly Fanatic."
Philly: "Is that a hate crime?!"
"This was a mistake." -Eagle Handler
RIP Tommy Lasorda 🙏🙏🙏
I was the mascot for my high school's homecoming game my senior year. It's a weird mix of fun and nearly passing out cause it gets hot in those suits. It's also exactly like how Kofie describes it
RIP Tommy Lasorda.
RIP LEGENDS YOUPPI AND TOMMY MIGHT BE GONE BUT THEYLL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
Youppi lives! The Montreal Canadiens adopted him when the Expos left.

That Kofie cameo was magic.
Kofie could've legit had his own that's weird episode 😂
As a Giants fan I’m not surprised a dodgers manager would do this
Do the 2014 triple overtime uconn game
Lasorda passed away last night. RIP.
TWENTY-TWO innings, final score 1-0
Americans: sOcCeR iS sO boRiNg
"Birds aren't real anyways" is a powerful take and I'm here for it tbh
Do they just not have 4 mics? Millions of views but just three microphones
"The human explamation point himself"
The funny part is, on his Jersey, his number is "!"
:D
These vids keep getting better
ok but that phanatic story is the most philly thing i've heard all day. he was even on an _atv_ good lord
We need a rewinder on Kofie's time as a mascot
I am so glad to have gotten some of the Deep Kofie Lore today, thank you all
I love me some Will-led content.
I've been to a 9 inning game that ended 1-0. I wanted to fall asleep there, so I definitely don't blame the mascot for pulling out a night cap and gown for a 22 inning game with the same score!
I love seeing different races having fun together like it should be
RIP Tommy Lasorda
We need a Rewind on Kofie’s mascot adventures
Dave Kingman’s 3HR game...Lasorda’s reaction...Funnier with the beeps.
I'd listen to a podcast with the four of you on it.
we need more Tommy Lasorda stories
This quote makes me feel so old: "I don't really remember Tommy Lasorda."
I remember Tommy Lasorda primarily from selling Slim Fast.
Aluminum - because they couldn't get enough tin, or make it out of an ACTUAL drum ;-)
Also, Tommy Lasorda was a wizard on "The Baseball Bunch" in the 80's.
-Shawn
Turns out that fighting Tommy Lasorda is actually the final requirement for a baseball mascot to make it to HoF
I still remember meeting tommy at a minor leauge baseball game in Michigan at a lunes game
Did Kofie have large talons?
Lasorda was awesome! His nickname was the Ambassador of Baseball and a lot of people became baseball fans because of his enthusiasm and love for the game. The events with the mascots were tongue and cheek, and put on like skits with really bad acting. Lol
Greatest leader of men in baseball history. Tommy Boy 🔵
Why did I think of Kofie when they said someone at SB Nation had been a mascot
Tommy is going to have to spend some time in purgatory for this.
Rewinder video in the 2009 week 11 game between the Browns and the Lions. Not only does in have an epic finish the game itself was extraordinary. The game was also meaningless and important at the same time.
I almost went to this game. Decided to hang out with friends instead, and regretted it ever since.
The baseball that hit The Philli Fanatic acted like one of Gyro Zeppeli’s steel balls from Jojo’s Part 7.
Excuse me the game lasted HOW MANY INNINGS!?
RIP to a legend
Pretty sure kofie played talon the mascot for dc united
There needs to be an interview with the guy that played that mascot. Honestly.
