Following numerous incidents of team mascots being injured after being punched by professional boxers and MMA stars, mascots are starting to hit back.
A spokesperson for the British Association of Mascots (BAM!) told FNN:
It's time that taking a shot at mascots was banned.
The recent incident was a result of the mascot in question filling his golden gloves with ball bearings so when he was struck by a fighter as part of a publicity stunt, he hit back, felling his opponent with 2 KGs of ball bearings.
This comes after a mass brawl between Disney characters and far right-demonstrators at the Disney theme park in Florida when Mickey lost both his ears, Goofy had all his teeth knocked out and Snow White beat the shit out of some guy in a MAGA cap.
