T.D. Travels To Arizona For 5th Annual Mascot Meetings
April 5, 2005
T.D. and 14 other NFL mascots met in Phoenix, Arizona this past week to discuss and share ideas for this upcoming 2005 season. This is the fifth straight year the mascots have met for these meetings. The previous meetings were held in Philadelphia, New York, Tampa Bay and Denver. The Arizona Cardinals and their mascot Big Red was the host for this event. The mascots that came out to these meetings were:
T.D. – Miami Dolphins
Big Red – Arizona Cardinals
Rowdy – Dallas Cowboys
Miles – Denver Broncos
Roary – Detroit Lions
Sourdough Sam – San Francisco 49ers
Swoop – Philadelphia Eagles
Sir Purr – Carolina Panthers
Freddie Falcon – Atlanta Falcons
Toro – Houston Texans
T-Rac – Tennessee Titans
Poe – Baltimore Ravens
Jaxson de Ville – Jacksonville Jaguars
Staley – Chicago Bears
Captain Fear – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Each mascot presented a video to the group with highlights from their past season. They then shared ideas that each mascot did at games or appearances throughout the year. Representatives from costume companies and prop manufactures were on hand to pitch their products to see if the mascots would be interested in using them for the upcoming season.
The mascots also spent their days in Arizona making hospital visits, doing autograph sessions and photo shoots, visiting local television shows and finding some time to play in the Arizona sun.
The mascots would like to thanks the Arizona Cardinals for hosting the event, Springhill Suites by Marriott – Tempe for providing accommodations and SuperShuttle for transportation.
