The Philadelphia Flyers introduced a new mascot today. The new mascot, Gritty, was the talk of the Internet all day. There were a couple of amusing tweets tying Gritty to Conshohocken.
Here they are:
Honestly…I went from thinking @GrittyNHL was terrible to aggressively loving him in like 12 hours which is basically the history of Philly sports https://t.co/hgVegu53qU

Look @frates we can’t deny who we are…and Gritty is our loudmouthed cousin from Conshohocken

Kind of terrifying, but all that matters with mascots is what Little Jimmy from Conshohocken and his fellow 4th-graders think of him. https://t.co/qx1Ru9Go9w
