NEVER. BREAKS. CHARACTER. Best mascot in sports forever
My thoughts exactly!

That Mayberry’s hitting everything! Call him up!
Yeah, that wasn’t the John Mayberry Jr. that I know. How many Mayberry Jr.s do the Phils have in their system?
we just found james brown’s replacement for the hardest working man in show business.
I love how that little bastard is all “fuck yeah”
He’s ALWAYS funny. Unprecedented.
I love the level of concern shown by the guy in red.
i think that’ll be the last time he leaves the friendly confines of CBP
also i love how those fat chicks are just clapping away. “it’s all part of the show folks!”
I stick by my original comment: the people around him should be ashamed for ducking, flailing at the ball, and letting our beloved Phanatic take that one right in the kisser.
dude in the pitt shirt made me lol
Pitt Football, so it’s only natural he’d be at a Phillies minor league team.
game… even.
He didn’t get accepted to the State College Spikes game. Hey-oh!
FUCK PITT IN THE ASSHOLE
g0od. can’t stand the phanatic
Shut up, T0nrey. I would love to see The Phanatic stomp you with his giant sneakers.
As usual the asians provide the most laughs.
Is it wrong I wanted the ball to hit that PITT FOOTBALL fan in the face instead?
Three head coaches in a span of a month is more effective.
Phanatic musta seen the Phils game from Tuesday night and knew that sometimes you gotta take one for the team. Dude has to go the hospital from getting hit in the throat and he still reacts like less of a pussy than Polanco did. Hardcore, Phanatic, hardcore.
Bahaha, I’d love to see you after a 96mph fastball to the fingers.
It wouldn’t be pretty. I get tears in my eyes if my 10 year old pegs me with a wiffle ball.
Yeah, the Phanatic took one in the throat….Burgoyne, however, took one in the noggin.
Keep in mind, the throat on the Phanatic is the face/mouth/nose/forehead for the guy inside the costume. Definitely hardcore.
what is this i don’t even
A guy inside? What?!
The Man Inside Me. By Tobias Funke.
POW Right in the Kissah!
So manly.
REPLY TO ME
ok
ok
sorry now it’s done
done.
Hahah! The fact that he never loses character, is just another testament to his title as “Best Mascot Ever.”
From The Morning Call (an Allentown newspaper)
“Tom Burgoyne, the man behind the 6 foot-6 inch, 300-pound mascot, was suffering from a bump over a slightly blackened eye, and the effects of a minor concussion, but otherwise raring to return to game action.”
Not to repeat myself, but hardcore, Phanatic, SERIOUSLY hardcore.
Wait, you mean there’s a man inside the Phanatic?
*cries*
Who the fuck is Tom Burgoyne? The Philly Phanatic is his own man.
No, it says “behind the Phanatic.” Clearly, this is the guy who the Phanatic fell on. He must have hit his head on the seat as the Phanatic’s massive girth crushed him.
Thaty dumb ass Rocky the dinosaur that the Rockies have wouldn’t have gotten hit because he is always behind home plate whenever I see him. How is that legal? He’s right in the pitcher’s line of sight.
@ Jocksniffer, read what it actually says my odiforous loving fan of the athletic supporter. Mr Burgoyne was only standing “behind” the Phanatic. He was unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time. No wipe those tears and gimme a big smile, just turn your head you’re freakin’ mufungo.
I’m glad this happened, i hate the Phanatic.
And you also hate proper comma usage.
You come on a Phillies blog bearing a Cowboys logo and badmouth the Phanatic.
And they wonder why we hate Dallas fans.
By the way it’s spelled cretin.
He’s officially the “Best mascot ever”. I, guess, haters, gonna, hate.
This video is clearer than the actual broadcasts. I love having games on Service Electric, but HD please?
John Walsonivich may have invented cable, but his kids’ company hasn’t moved the ball forward at all.
mark the date 7/22/2011 in your calendar, look for channel 502
Standing O from me next time I see him…nice job Phanatic.
There was a guy in a homemade Phanatic costume sitting behind the 1B dugout at tonight’s IronPigs game. His friend had a “Get Well Soon” sign.
Too bad it could not have magically taken out Chris Wheeler…
