Mascots, man, Mascots. Eventually their fun antics were bound to hurt someone. And that someone was Tempe City Councilman David Schapira last Friday night. Schapira was sent to the hospital after Arizona State mascot, Sparky, jumped on his back not knowing that he was healing from back surgery...

quote:ASU apologized for the incident. Sparky, man. Sparky.
“From what my wife described, he kind of ran across the field and full-on leaped,” “I’m 6-foot-5 and Sparky has got to be about 5-6. He took a full jump and landed squarely on my back, probably thinking, ‘This is a big guy; he can take it.’ Little did he know I had back surgery a couple months earlier.”
