Ridiculously bad, and yet somehow awesome all rolled into one package!

It made me laugh looking at it so I suppose effective from an entertainment standpoint.

Maybe they could have incorporated firey boxing gloves to match the shoes?

I think we need to do a group-buy for those shoes.

I'd wear those to work.

This mascot has become a story of legend and lore in a matter of hours.

This is the greatest day in Flames history.

Other things that I hope become part of his schtick:

Working the concession, and proudly serving everyone blackened, shrivelled weiners in their hotdogs.
Dancing the flashdance routine, and then feigning a horrific, anguished death when the bucket of water dumps on him.
Holding the American flag during the national anthems, with the flag suddenly catching on fire midway through. Hijinx ensues as veterans chase him around the ice, trying to subdue him and put out the fire.

Fans will love him.

I keep coming back to this thread to look at Scorch.

Harvey better up his game and watch his back.

I gotta agree with PeteMoss, you guys are nuts.

Scorch is not only the greatest mascot in the AHL, he's the greatest mascot in North America. And now he's the greatest avatar on CP.

All hail Scorch!

And so did the dark one arise from the depths of perdition, eager to draft the unwitting masses unto his army. And thusly did we go to him.

All Hail Jobu (Scorch is simply his vessel!), we shall abate your endless thirst

ADIRONDACK FLAMES RELEASE STATEMENT REGARDING TODAY'S MASCOT UNVEILING

The Adirondack Flames have released a statement regarding today’s mascot unveiling.

“Earlier today we unveiled our new mascot Scorch. In an attempt to provide background material for the character who will be the face of our team, particularly with young fans, we crafted a story that Scorch was the remaining ember from the tragic fire that destroyed much of Glens Falls in 1864.

We also crafted a skit that helped to launch the new mascot – with the help of the Glens Falls Fire Department. While it seemed in good taste when it was on the drawing board, it is evident now that it was in poor taste.

On behalf of our entire organization we want to apologize for our thoughtlessness today. We have obviously turned something good, the launch of a mascot which we will use to entertain and encourage young fans, into something that is in poor taste. That was not our intention and again we apologize.

We would like to emphasize that we as an organization take seriously the dangers associated with fire, understand its potentially devastating effects and acknowledge that those in our nation who are called upon to face and fight fires on a daily basis are truly heroes.

We apologize.” – Brian Petrovek, President, Adirondack Flames.
