Older article, but stumbled across this today about Big Blue: what he means, who he is, how he moves, etc. Pretty sweet. I knew Mark in school..what a great mascot he was!

Quote:There are three kinds of kids Blue deals with:
-Those who love Blue.
-Those who hate Blue. They will pull on his tail. They will take swings at him.
-Those who are terrified of Blue. "It's like a dog," Hering says. Keep your space. "Let them come to you."
Quote:One of Blue's signature moves is the belly shake. He grabs his stomach and smimmies it as he moves from left to right. It is hypnotic. "Everybody loves a fat dude dancing," Hering said.
