As a Philadelphia fan and an employee of the Flyers (no, I didn’t know about him until the official release), I have to say that I was at first, like many, terrified of Gritty. However, despite my gut reaction to run in the opposite direction of this fuzzy orange creature, he has definitely grown on me. Got to see him in action last night at the game when the Fly Guys got rocked by the Rangers. He loves launching t shirts and high fives (his hands squeak!) and is less terrifying in person.
I can only hope that my fellow Philadelphians come to love him too. Embrace Gritty, even if the rest of the world hates him. No one likes us, we don’t care.
(The eyes need to be ungoogled, though. That will always be creepy.)
