Check out Chilkoot Charlie's on a Friday night. Bring Kevlar.

I've been there several times. Had a fun time.

The kid on the horse stick is so annoying. I'm gonna trip him if he's back. That crap belongs at a kindergarten party, not a hockey game, stupid alaska.

If they stop playing William Tell, I guarantee you he won't ride the stick because he won't know when to start riding.

If you do trip him, can you make sure it's during the song so I can get it on my DVR? They usually always show him riding, so the dozens of people watching tape delayed UAA games at 10 pm on Friday can't see the sections of empty seats in the upper balconies.

What's the big deal? At least the guy has some SPIRIT!! Wish there were 1000 more with that kind of heart at the Sully.

Yes, have spirit, but don't embarrass Alaska like that. It's ****ing stupid! It's not funny, it's not cool. What would be a lot better is something like DJ dance cam. Play some Chris Brown and get the younger crowd going. The atmosphere would be so much better with more young people in there because they make the most noise. I don't know why UAA doesn't do more to advertise and offer specials on tickets to HS aged kids. That's a large demographic they're missing out on.

He was no more embarrassing than the product on the ice last season.

I'm not normally one to dive into hot button issues, but I don't think UAA (or any university) should be playing music from a guy who beat the **** out of his girlfriend just to try and get kids pumped up. Just sayin'.

They do try to get the HS kids involved. I believe (at least they used to) offer free tickets to all the highschool hockey teams. Hopefully when they aren't playing themselves they take advantage of that.

The guy riding the horse has done that for YEARS. Nobody ever complained about it when the Sully was full and rockin. Wanna talk about embarrassing? That stupid mascot is embarrassing. Total failure. There are numerous teams around the country with the Seawolf as a mascot, but UAA's is the only one that looks ********.

Re: UAA Seawolves 2012-2013 Thread "the Last Hurrah"

I totally agree that the physical representation of our mascot is pretty stupid, although to be fair other schools versions aren't exactly confidence inspiring either. I'll let you all decide, though:

Erie Seawolves' 'C. Wolf'

Sonoma State University Seawolves (name unknown)

UAA Seawolves' 'Spirit The Seawolf'

Stony Brook Seawolves' 'Wolfie'

Mississippi Seawolves' 'Hook'

FWIW, I give the Stony Brook Seawolves and the Eerie Seawolves the win for best costume. I give the Mississippi Seawolves (what the heck is that on his head?) and the Sonoma University Seawolves a big fat fail for worst designs. I'd say ours is about in the middle.

I wish there were 1000 more fans period.

At least those others look like a wolf and not a reptile. Our mascot is a laughing stock if you ask other fans.

You can never go wrong with a polar bear everyone loves them, only thing better would be a panda.

The little polar bear reminds me of Mini Me from the Austin Powers movies.

I don't have a problem with the idea of a polar bear, but those costumes you have are almost as ugly as our Seawolf.
