New Mascot Found!

Posing with our new mascot, Senore Elefanti.

While walking down The Ramblas in Barcelona, we were EXTREMELY FORTUNATE to bump into a new potential Catania Elephants mascot -- who we have named, "Senore Elefanti."  

Painted Silver to match the fierce looking Elephant he rides, Senore Elefanti will be crucial to our success at home games this year, as he is intimidating yet friendly at the same time.

He currently lives in Barcelona, working on The Ramblas each day for tips -- as those who pass by put money into his hat.  During initial negotiations with him, I was informed that he is available to move to Catania and help our team, however there is one major sticking point:

He will only come to life and help cheer when people throw a Euro into his hat.  That might be hard to do all the way from the stands.

Also, I'm not sure how 'family friendly' he is, and if it is safe to have him around Children.  Other than that -- I think he is a perfect fit!  Please let me know if you agree!
 
Christie's turn with the mascot... we feel that he will fit right in with the Elefanti and drastically raise crowd interaction during games.  The only problem is that he might only help cheer when someone gives him a Euro.
