So You Think You Know Hockey Mascots? Meet Roscoe, the Milwaukee Admirals' Fearless (and Slightly Fuzzy) Leader!
Ah, mascots. Those wacky, wonderful creatures that roam the sidelines, high-five fans, and (let's be honest) occasionally confuse small children. But fear not, hockey fans! Today, we're diving into the world of the Milwaukee Admirals' mascot, a legend so awesome, he deserves his own Zamboni entrance.

| What is The Milwaukee Admirals Mascot |
Who is Roscoe, You Ask?
Roscoe the Raider isn't your average mascot. This energetic otter (yes, you read that right) is a force to be reckoned with. Don't be fooled by his fluffy exterior, Roscoe brings the heat (or should we say, the ice?) to every Admirals game. He's a master of crowd-pumping routines, a dab hand at on-ice shenanigans, and the undisputed champion of high-fives (seriously, this otter has some serious arm stamina).
But why an otter? Well, that's a question only the fine folks in the Milwaukee Admirals mascot costume department can answer definitively. Perhaps it's a tribute to the state's love of otters, or maybe they just wanted a mascot who could flawlessly execute a belly flop on the ice (a crowd favorite, by the way). Whatever the reason, Roscoe has become a beloved symbol of the team, his infectious enthusiasm as legendary as his impressive collection of hockey jerseys.

Fun Fact Friday: Roscoe's Most Epic Moments
Roscoe doesn't just show up, put in a few token high-fives, and call it a day. This otter goes above and beyond. Here are just a few of his greatest hits:
- The Great Zamboni Chase: In a move that defied all logic and physics, Roscoe once managed to chase a runaway Zamboni across the ice. (Spoiler alert: the Zamboni won, but Roscoe did get a participation trophy...made of fish.)
- The Mascot Dance-Off Debacle: Let's just say things got a little out of hand when Roscoe challenged the mascot of a rival team to a dance-off. Feathers may or may not have been ruffled.
- The National Anthem Snafu: Roscoe's love for audience participation sometimes backfires. During a particularly spirited rendition of the National Anthem, he accidentally conducted the crowd with a giant foam cheesehead. (Hey, at least he was patriotic?)
