The San Diego Chicken was visiting the Sounds on the same night we celebrated Nana's Birthday at the Sounds. (see next post) When we got there, Addie was asked if she would like to help out the San Diego Chicken. Of course she wanted to and it was so cute. Plus, it was Nana's birthday so it was a great bonus birthday present!
Do you know who the San Diego Chicken is? I really did not but he is a very, very, very famous mascot who goes way back. Click here to read his biography. (Fun Fact about him: He was named one the Top 100 Most Powerful People in Sports of the 20th Century by the Sporting News Editors, just like Babe Ruth and Muhammad Ali.) Here are some pictures we found of him...
We laughed so hard when we found this one...
Here is little Miss Addie as the San Diego Chicken's baby chick...While they were waiting to go be silly on the field, Ozzie gave them some love...
The San Diego Chicken led them around the field to slap the catcher on the bottom, send the visiting team some bad vibes, and to then lift their leg (as if they were peeing) on the umpire. It was cute!
Addie also got to go out on the field another time to try and hit water balloons from the San Diego Chicken. She didn't hit one because it turns out he was throwing them at a guy from the visiting team. It was too cute and she did great!
She even made it on the news, slapping the catcher on the bottom. Way to go Addie! You are the cutest baby chick I have ever seen!

I didn't know she was on the news! That will always be one of my favorite memories. although you left out the part that Nana has always dreamed of being a mascot and her grandaughter fulfilled her dream :)
