In todays woke society, I'm surprised he hasn't been renamed Puff the Tragic Dragon!At least he didn't breathe on him
I remember the steward in a white coat doing the same against Sunderland in the goal of the season game. They missed too (or Budgie saved it).Reminds me of when Bloomfield bear was jumping waving his arms in the air trying to put a Tranmere player off taking a penalty and he actually missed it and they complained to the EFL
I remember that , it had everyone in stitches. Very funny .Anyone remember Frank Sidebottom?
He was making a guest appearance at a mid week match (the old ground needless to say) and he was in front of the old west paddock encouraging the supporters when the ball was kicked out of play (not hard) and hit him.
Frank went down as if he had been pole axed and rolled over onto the pitch.
It was good improvisation at the time and very funny.
And throughout it his head never came off
I think the guy in the chaddy costume must have been a bit of a nutter. He literally had our mascot on the floor punching him in the head with a fair amount of force!Anyone remember when Chaddy the Owl stole Bloomfield Bear's boot, pissed in it and threw it back in the crowd at Boundary Park. Am sure that owl was mentally unstable.
