Phanatic Phollies

[@teresapflaumer5717]

I saw the Phanatic in 1995 when the Phils hosted the Giants. I was on 1st base side right above the visitors dugout and Phanatic was dancing and entertaining fans. He is soooooo big! BTW, that game I saw a fan run on the field, Barry Bonds hit a home run, and the Phillies won in the 10th on a walk off HR. Great memories.

Every team should have a mascot like Phanatic or Youpi! just to annoy Lasorda

[@thebelvedereboys9170]

Yup it’ll annoy him up in heaven

[@rwboa22]

The Astros have Orbit, who is Phanatic-like, but Gritty from the Flyers is the closest to the Phanatic in terms of antics.

7:36 did they use a phanatic doll as a baby? (Think so)

[@johnnylafriegas677]

That Phanatic was a lot tougher than today’s Phanatic!

[@TheMOMUZAK]

This is great. Anybody have any of the Phanatic weather clips from Channel 17 from back in the day?

[@ShelleFever1]

Is Bill Giles the Phantics Dad?

[@outtaherephils]

It's certainly implied to be the case

[@PhillySportsReports]

Apparently

[@MattHeadleyNC]

GASP! WHY have I never been able to FIND this video?! It's also labeled, "Phillie Phanatic Phollies" on the VHS tape. I wonder if that's why I could never find it for years. Have the VHS from the game day giveaway in 1988. Watched it many times! Is there a way to share the VHS artwork?

[@MattHeadleyNC]

Amazing, it has the same weird audio mistake or stereo/mono issue or whatever in the opening music.

[@MattHeadleyNC]

At 6:04, the baby phanatic hospital scene, I know that music has been used in Spongebob or something. I remember seeing that Spongebob and instantly recognizing the music

[@WolfyWuffer]

I'm a fan of Phanatic already, and i saw him for the first time weeks ago!

[@patdecaro2747]

[@kyleshiflet9952]

1 of only 3 mascots in the Baseball Hall of Fame along with Youpie and the Famous Chicken of San Diego

[@icebarpp6267]

[@MARC2649]

26 ;48. Thets how I what to be carry reminds this one time some one pick me up just like that or 28 ;20

[@richardgazinia5482]

Love it but the door on the side of Phanavision opens outwards on the outside and then suddenly changes to an inward opening door when Tug and Phoebe are looking for the Phanatic. Did they ever show this during rain delays?

[@MARC2649]

I idid not relize it was a little boy he was Lucky

[@candelariaandrade1903]

You spelled phillie wrong

[@vmp_modular1414]

It’s the word “Follies” spelled with a “ph” instead of an “f”. Kind of how they spell “Phanatic” with a “ph” instead of an “f”. The Phillies are known to do this for marketing purposes.

[@johnb9149]

I watched this over and over as a kid. Thank you for uploading!!!

[@outtaherephils]

I got this on VHS for my birthday when I was 7 or 8

[@augieschannel705]

5:37

[@sethsipe6842]

I saw the Phanatic on a trip to see a Phillie home game. Epic.

[@GLee-oe3op]

Man it would have been nice to go to Vet stadium at least once

[@mikeobie1]

It was such a dump, but it was our dump. I loved the place to be honest.

[@Joe4Schrute1]

Ya Gotta Believe!

[@herbyfanatic1057]

When was this made.

[@jcat8403]

I’d say 1988 based on that one scene with the calendar
