Well, you gotta give Youppi credit for sticking to his principles.. he could've just done the easy thing and gone with the team to Washington, but it just wouldn't have been right and he wouldn't have been appreciated.. Montreal is where he belongs..
You've got a diamond, You've got nine men You've got a hat and a bat, And that's not all..
Youppi is the damn scariest mascot ever. I think I used to have nightmares of him chasing me. Im glad to get him out of baseball and into hockey, I don't watch hockey so I won't have to see his mouthless face ever again.
