Yippie for Youppi!

Youppi, the once proud Montreal Expos' mascot, has been resurrected!

Many may remember that Youppi made history in 1989 as the first mascot to be thrown out of a Major League Baseball game when he was ejected from the game during the 11th inning after Los Angeles Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda complained to the umpires about his dancing on top of the visitors' dugout.

Now Youppi is going down in the history books for a second time as being the first mascot to switch leagues! He will now be the official mascot of the Montreal Canadiens.

  1. Matt,

    Rest assured that as soon as I found out about this Youppi! infestation, I called the Orkin man to take care of the problem. He said that once autumn arrives, the vermin tries to enter people's blogs looking for warmth from the oncoming cold.

    I now have sticky strips on all of the posts. With any luck we will be able to control this problem before Youppi! propagates. ;)
