Saturday Morning Cartoons: So THAT’S how he walks upright

January 30th, 2010

(Hola angels. Thanks for your support of Daily Thunder. Shine on you crazy diamonds.)

I think this video fits the true spirit of this post. You could say this is an actual cartoon of sorts, or at least appeals to the demographic that still likes cartoons: eight-year-olds and Royce. And while this video about Rumble the Bison is old, I’ve never seen it. My favorite part is how they paint Rumble as a loner wandering the earth until he found a home with basketball players. I’m just thankful in his travels, Rumble didn’t stumble across John Dunbar, amirite? Anyway, soak up the story of Rumble while basking in the glory of that big win over the Nuggs last night.

Saturday Morning Cartoons: Your 2009 Mascot of the Year

August 15th, 2009

(Howdy Thunder peeps. Thank you for your continued support of Daily Thunder. Read a book today. I recommend God Save the Fan by Will Leitch. Nice read.)

Haven’t you heard the news? Rumble was named Mascot of the Year by… somebody. And you know what, I got a kick out of Rumble for the most part. I always thought mascots were annoying until I went to a few games early on last year where there wasn’t one. I found myself missing Hugo and wishing for someone to run up and pants Dick Bavetta. It’s not like Rumble is some revolutionary mascot that has changed everything forever. But he did a nice job and he’s been extremely active and has connected with fans really well. So congrats again Rumble. Wear your crown with pride.
