Didn’t he shoot a random dude with silly string? Also didn’t he put a “loser” sign over someone

Jon Absey assaulted fans who paid money to see a game. I'm certain it resulted in at least one lawsuit against the team. Hardly an ambassador for Utah or basketball. Note how OTHER mascots tease but do not physically menace and antagonize fans from other teams. Note how you can replace him with someone mentally stable and no one really cares....because its a mascot.

Maybe if the Fargo-Moorhead Fever hadn't let him go, North Dakota might be known for something other than football.
