The most delicious mascot race ever.
Posted by meech.one at 12:39 pm ET 4 Comments

The Philadelphia Phillies Single-A affiliate, the Lakewood BlueClaws, recently introduced a new mascot race at their New Jersey stadium — The Pork Roll vs. The Egg vs. The Cheese.

I know, sounds fucking delicious, right?

Here’s footage of one of the races — but in reality, it doesn’t really matter who wins and who loses. As long as they all come together on a fresh kaiser roll for my consumption afterward.

God bless John Taylor.

    No surprise the pork roll came in last. I’m surprised it didn’t clutch its chest and drop near third base.

    Oh, and no scrapple? What the fuck?!? Damn Jersey affiliates.

    The cheese stands alone.
    The cheese stands alone.
    Hi-ho, the derry-o,
    the cheese stands alone.

    No scrapple in Lakewood, but check the details from last week’s Awful Night promotion in Altoona:

    “Ballpark food is never off limits for Awful Night and this year Curve fans attending Monday’s game will have the opportunity to purchase a tasty side of scrapple. Scrapple is a regional food common to the Mid-Atlantic states and is described by Wikipedia as “a savory mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal and flour.” That dish will have fans yearning for Spam and Tang, which were the food and beverage targets of the original Awful Night in 2003.”

    Hello, NASA? How come I can’t get no Tang ’round here?
