    Default Who is TFC's mascot?

    http://www.mlssoccer.com/mascot-mania

    I went to vote for this and there's no option for TFC. I thought Bitchy the Hawk was our mascot. Someone needs to let the pointy foreheads at mlssoccer know.

    We don't have a mascot... Bitchy isn't technically a mascot

    They surveyed us a few years back - I think most of us said no to a mascot.

    Nope to mascots. I gotta say I'm pretty happy to say TFC doesn't have one.

    I know the trational footy supporter would not be into this but to attract the average 20 something guy looking for a fun afternoon out enjoying some cold beers with the boys it could be used from a marketing perspective.

    So find a cheerleading event. The girls (and boys for that matter) would be so much more appreciative of the support that's actually for them instead of a distraction from a sporting event one can't keep their attention on.

    Your marketing perspective offends me.

    Oh for the love of... NO.

    At no point during a game do people need to be distracted by anything.

    Show up get beer, first half, washroom + beer, 2nd half, back to the bar. No TV timeouts, no dead time to be filled

    I am just curious how other MLS teams involve their chearleaders into their game presentation and where they are situated with the nature of how footy flows.

    Its a gimmick used in struggling markets. The game should be the selling point not the entertainment. my two cents

    FYR, sometimes I am in awe of how eloquent you can be. This sums up my position on this exactly. Up until right now I did not know Columbus had cheerleaders...
    Road Games:
    2013 - Montréal , 2014 - Orlando (Disney Classic), Montréal
    2015 - Columbus, New England, Montréal
    2016 - NYCFC (Leg 2 Conference Semis), Montréal (Leg 1 Conference Final)
    2017 - Ottawa (Leg 1 Canadian Championship Semi), DCU, Red Bulls (Leg 1 Conference Final), Columbus (Leg 2 Conference Final)
    2019 - Montréal, NYCFC (Eastern Conference Semi @ Citi Field), Seattle (MLS Cup Final)

    What? They've been around since at least 2011. I'm surprised you haven't seen them yet. I remember seeing them at one of the few away stadiums that have them. They were limited in game but have a halftime show.

    literally the first search:

    https://youtu.be/y36uJPwB1DM

    I usually youtube link it but I don't actually want people to see it. If you neeeeeed to know it was 2009 vs Toronto at halftime and it was not something for me. This must be the time I remember seeing them. They were very limited in their role during run of play.

    Out on the patio before and after the game and around the stadium host when they are announcing a Bud give away, usually about 25 minutes before the game.

    Ignored almost completely.

    It wouldn't matter to me if every other team in the league had them, they will never belong with football to me.

    Silly mascots are for kids! and the cheerleaders belong to NFL and CFL games cause the play on the field isn't worth watching so you need something else to look at.

    That's kind of ironic don't you think? I'm pretty sure you would've been at that game and yet you didn't celebrate them then.

    It was a comment with a smirk, I typed in MLS Cheerleaders into google and threw it out there for whatever, personally I could care less if I team has them or not.

    I suppose you can feign it was all in jest, this is after all the internets and things can be misunderstood.....


    but the internets remember everything....
