The NBA team the New Orleans Hornets changed their name to the New Orleans Pelicans, and last night they introduced their new mascot Pierre the Pelican. Pierre is yellow and blue with an enormous red clown mouth and a giant mohawk. In other words, he doesn't look anything like a pelican. Pierre looks a lot more like a scary monster, and he has the internet on edge.
Here's a rundown of the different ways Pierre has struck terror into the hearts of bloggers everywhere:
