The Chicago Sky presented a brand-new mascot earlier this week, and the jokes instantly began flying.

Chicago relatively understood that its previous mascot — Sky Guy — wouldn’t cut it anylonger with fans. (Sky Guy was all kinds of weird, and, if I’m sincere, he looked like The Crimson Chin. So, it was mostlikely best to relocation on.) The franchise hasactually reimagined its when underwhelming mascot and rebranded it as a blue braid-wearing lion called Skye the Lioness.

According to a group release, a lioness was selected to embody strength, womanly power, and grace and to signify the guts to gottenridof challenges. It’s likewise a strong nod to the city of Chicago, where lions serve as guardians of the Art Institute of Chicago. Skye makes her launching on Wednesday versus the Washington Mystics.

So, about those tips…
We have a brand-new mascot:
