Mascot

The Resume

    Born in New Orleans, Louisiana
    Mascot of the New Orleans Saints
    An anthropomorphized Saint Bernard wearing a Saints jersey

Why Gumbo the Dog might be annoying:

    Gumbo sounds pretty tame for a sports mascot name.
    For years, the mascot was an actual Saint Bernard wearing a jersey.
    He had to endure watching his team have futile seasons for several decades.
    He went into a brief 'retirement' (probably because he could not bear to watch his team lose).

Why Gumbo the Dog might not be annoying:

    The first reason they chose this breed was because of the word 'Saint.'
    The other reason was that New Orleans Parish shares a border with 'St. Bernard' Parish.
    The mascot was a gift to the team from the Louisiana Restaurant Association.
    After years of humiliation and frustration, he saw his team win Super Bowl XLIV.
