Squatch (The Man Inside) Joins OKC's Thunder
Quote:
Squatch lives.
Sort of.
Marc Taylor, the person inside the Squatch costume at Sonics NBA games in Seattle, is relocating to Oklahoma City to serve as the Thunder's mascot.
The team's mascot hasn't been revealed. But Taylor will be the person inside the costume, it was announced Thursday in a press release. Thunder officials also announced Jason Quintero, who served as manager of game presentation for Hornets games during their two seasons at the Ford Center, will return to Oklahoma City in a similar role.
Taylor, 33, has extensive mascot experience. He was Squatch (NBA) and Doppler (WNBA) for Seattle's two professional basketball teams the past nine years. Taylor was most visible as Squatch, a hairy mascot who wore a Sonics jersey and shorts. His routine featured everything from using trampolines to dunking to riding huge bicycles.
