[NBC 10] In what we’ll call a shocking new survey published by Forbes and conducted by The Marketing Arm’s Davie Brown Index, Mr. Met was voted as America’s favorite sports mascot in 2012, edging out past winner the Phillie Phanatic.
The survey measured people’s perceptions of celebrities and their influence on brands, and with regard to sports mascots, took into account awareness, likeability and breakthrough (meaning the degree to which consumers take notice of the mascot when he appears at the stadium and on TV, plus the degree to which people are able to match a mascot to his team).
This has to be a joke all bias aside. The only category that Mr. Met may win is the degree to which people can match the mascot with the team cause he’s wearing the Mets entire jersey… The Phanatic is the best mascot in sports hands down.
Phuck the phanatic.
all biases aside… this article is strongly biased
Damn it HERB!
