How come you never hear about the San Diego Chicken anymore ? I mean, he’s still around.. but way back a million years ago go when teams like the San Diego Padres, Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburgh Pirates ruled baseball, he was EVERYWHERE .

Speaking of birds, Where did all the robin's go? I haven't seen one in Baton Rouge in a few years. Do they no longer fly south?

Are you purposefully degrading these pictures before you post them?

The rumor on the dark web is that the San Diego Chicken was joined by Boltman, the unofficial San Diego Chargers mascot, and are living 10 miles below the surface, somewhere in the San Andreas fault.

It is said that they will return one day, and they will bring with them the fury of hell as they seek revenge upon the city of Los Angeles.

San Diego chicken was a bitch. He got my favorite mascot Beauregard T. Rooster (UAB) canned when I was a kid. He was funny as hell at UAB games.

Beauregard T. Rooster was the official costumed mascot for the UAB Blazers athletic teams from 1979 to 1992.

The first rooster mascot was created as a halloween costume by UAB employee Frank Sutherland, whose wife, Deborah sponsored the cheerleading team. He began appearing at a few student activities in the costume. After the first few attempts at a dragon mascot failed to catch on with fans, Gene Bartow heard about Sutherland's chicken and invited him to appear at basketball games. He continued for a while in an unofficial capacity until the mascot was adopted by the athletics department a few years later. Students who donned the feathered costume included Greg Blackman.

On April 14, 1981 the "San Diego Chicken", performed by Ted Giannoulas, made an appearance at Rickwood Field for the Birmingham Barons' home opener. He returned to Rickwood for a second time on August 18. The following June, Giannoulas criticized Beauregard as "ripping off" his costume in a letter to the editor of the Birmingham News. Years later UAB received an infringement notice from the owners of the San Diego Chicken's trade mark.

Beauregard was briefly succeeded by Blaze the Viking in 1993 before the present Blaze dragon made his debut in 1996. A costumed Beauregard T. Rooster made an unannounced return to Bartow Arena during the final game of the 2021–2022 season on March 5.

There is actually a pic of Morganna, The Kissing Bandit, kissing the San Diego Chicken in this article about her:
