The Resume

    Born in Columbus, Ohio
    Mascot for the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets

    Is an anthropomorphic yellowjacket

Why they might be annoying:

    His face was originally plastered all over the team's merchandise during the franchise's early years.
    He was given a green color as a result of being a yellowjacket and the team's nickname being the Blue Jackets.
    His face was featured as the team uniform's shoulder patch for their first six seasons.
    He looks like Kermit the Frog on drugs.
    He is associated with a franchise that historically is known for a lack of success.

Why they might not be annoying:

    He served as a marketing tool for the franchise in their early days.
    His presence on the team's logos was removed as the Blue Jackets wanted to rebrand to reflect the significance of their team name.
    He enjoys setting off the cannons at Nationwide Arena after the Jackets score a goal.
    He travels extensively around Ohio, promoting both hockey and the Blue Jackets to children in various communities.
    He is heavily involved with various charities within the Columbus area.
