Happy Tuesday, otherwise known as ‘Pumpkin Pie For Lunch”<\/em> day.\u00a0 Still got those leftovers?\u00a0 Better make’em count.<\/p>\n

Since today happens to be National Face Your Fears Day<\/strong> we learned (or re-learned) that Tori is deathly afraid of mascots<\/strong>.\u00a0 Sorry Bomber<\/a>, she’s got no love for your oversized melon.\u00a0 Do you have anything you’re afraid of that most people don’t find all that scary?<\/p>\n

My favs to torment Tori’s nightmares also include Wushock<\/a> (a big, bad, muscle-bound bundle of wheat), Mr. Redlegs<\/a> from the Cincinnati Reds, and whatever this monstrosity<\/a> is.\u00a0 Here are 10 of the “official” scariest mascots she should be avoiding:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Stanford Tree (Stanford University) – The Stanford Tree mascot is known for its bizarre appearance, which some find unsettling rather than cute.<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. The Fighting Okra (Delta State University) – A giant, anthropomorphic okra may not be inherently scary, but it’s definitely unusual and can be seen as unsettling.<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. The Stanford Cardinal (Stanford University) – The Stanford Cardinal is a red, tree-like creature with a fierce expression that some find intimidating.<\/em><\/li>\n
  4. Thunder (Denver Broncos) – While Thunder, the Denver Broncos’ live horse mascot, is majestic to many, the sight of a galloping horse during pre-game ceremonies can be intense for some.<\/em><\/li>\n
  5. The Pirate (East Carolina University) – East Carolina University’s pirate mascot has a menacing appearance, complete with an eye patch and a fierce demeanor.<\/em><\/li>\n
  6. Otto the Orange (Syracuse University) – Otto the Orange may not seem scary at first glance, but an oversized anthropomorphic orange can be quite unsettling to some.<\/em><\/li>\n
  7. Big Red (Western Kentucky University) – Big Red is a large, red, furry creature with a perpetual smile, which can be creepy to some people.<\/em><\/li>\n
  8. The Demon Deacon (Wake Forest University) – The Demon Deacon has a unique and somewhat eerie look, dressed in a black robe and hat with a demon-like appearance.<\/em><\/li>\n
  9. The Mountaineer (West Virginia University) – The Mountaineer mascot often appears with a musket and a coonskin cap, which can come across as intimidating.<\/em><\/li>\n
  10. The Blue Blob (Xavier University) – The Blue Blob is a blue, gelatinous mascot with an unusual and somewhat unsettling appearance.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        And there’s nothing scary about this… … other than the inevitable passage of time and the realization that your days as the #1 man in your daughter’s life will pass like the sands through an hourglass…<\/p>\n
