PHILS PHACTS:
Phanatic Going The Distance – The
Phanatic is a creature of many talents: He's a thespian,
a comedian,
a troll, a
college football analyst,
an edible projectile expert
... and an athlete? Beneath that furry green belly that shakes and wiggles to
the beat of the stadium music must be an eight-pack of rock-hard abs because
the Phanatic recently completed a Spartan Race at Citizens Bank Park. The
Phillies are hosting their third annual Spartan Race on Saturday and the
Phanatic got a bit of a head start, scaling walls and swinging on ropes as he
moved through the course that makes use of existing structures and features
obstacles created especially for the event. OK, so maybe the Phanatic could
stand to take a CrossFit class or 12. Still, though, pretty solid effort
considering his belly is big enough to be used as a prop during
dance numbers.
THE BEGINNING:
The
Phillies finally put an end to the season finishing in last place in the NL
East with a record of 63-99. Given the departures, aging stars, injuries, and
bipolar performances, this has ended up being one of the worst seasons in
franchise history! However, at least Ryan Madson got another ring this year.
