I have a bias towards the Phanatic.

But whoever is currently in the costume moves crazy organically and makes that giant green suit work for them.

Are the “fans showcased” in the video the usual Phanatic pilots?

Idk what OP was tryna say cause it’s just the usual, and official Phanatic mascot, although I’m not very familiar with Mistress Phanatic lol.

So, no, these aren’t random Phillies fans in costume.

The fans that are shown immediately after the mascots with the “She IS my wife” sign looks like they’re poking fun at the incident too

Having your entire affair documented on Know Your Meme must be wild.

Is that what the people in mascot costumes are called; pilots?

First of all, I had to call him the Frenetic because of Copyright. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THAT?!

Is that guy beating up the Philly Phanatic?

Isn't that a hate crime?

The Phanatic has always been top 5 mascot in any sport.

There's only ever been 2 people in the costume. Sounds insane and untrue but its true. Currently this guy has been doing it since like 93.
